Oct - 1 night stay Pool or Express?

[Andrea from PA]

Ok, we're booked for 1 night at HRH for 10/12.

We'll be doing US/IOA parks for at least 6 days. (10/12-10/17).

Do we spend our HRH time at the great pool or Express Pass thru rides?

Ideally, we should split the time, but we family needs to work on hard fast rules...

And, is CLUB level worth it for a 1 night stay?

I don't know how busy it will be during your time there, but I would definitely take advantage of the FOTL perk! Do you realize that you get that perk for 2 days? You can use your hotel card on the day you check in, right away--even if your room isn't ready, and on the day you check out--right up until the park closes. So...you can split it if you want, check in day do one thing and check out day, do another!

As far as club being worth it, dunno...how many in the room? Will you be eating dinner out or in club? I think club is the bomb for breakfast. We also enjoyed the happy hour--'free' beer & wine, from 5-7 maybe? Hopefully someone else will confirm. See what the price difference is between club and regular. Take that difference and see if it's an amount you would spend on food. Say it's $100 more for the night...would you spend more than that on your party at the parks and restaurants? If you can take full advantage of the club offerings it's more economical. For us, it's more of a splurge, a special treat for vacay...we don't necessarily do it because it's "worth it" or that it saves $$.

Either way...you are going to enjoy it and you will just love HRH!

since part of your group will be doing hhn on the 12th, the 3 left behind would be enjoying club for the evening. you would have the breakfast for the next morning though before you checked out.

do what d4est stated and figure out how much financially you would come out ahead by switching to club if they have it available.

the parks will close early on hhn nights.
studios at 5 and ioa at 6.

you'll have the fotl for that sunday and monday.
monday will have it's crowds start around 11ish as it is a holiday weekend.

i think i went over this with you before but will say it again.

do the parks with the express of fotl for the 2 days you will have it.
since you will be staying off site on monday night and returning to the parks the rest of the week, go early for the regular lines.

do the repeats of your favorites.

you can hang at the pool when the parks close on sunday for the rest of your group. the weather should still be warm and enjoyable for the late afternoon early evening time there.

take advantage of FOTL while you have it.

tue-thur should be ok with crowds but then you run into hhn happening again for the end of your trip at uo for the daytime.
