Park opening for resort guest

[Mom loves Disney]

we are visiting the park on January 1st. It says the park opens at 8:00 that day. If we are staying at royal pacific can we enter the park at 7:00 am?

yes. You can have a look at the early entry calendar at:

It shows both parks have early entry starting at 7:00 am

Thank you!
We have never been to universal before.

First few days of January will have crowds

With both parks having EE, be in the line 15 minutes prior to opening

Have your room key with you as TM will ask to see it before you get to the ticket turnstile

Look for the signs- hotel guests
Use those lines to enter for EE

Call us crazy but we like to be at or near the front of the line when they start letting people through the turnstiles, it is part of the experience! We also stayed at RPR at our November trip, and we took the first boat over in the morning, you can check with the resort for timing but I think for the 8AM opening (park officially opened at 9 when we were there) I think we took the boat at 7 or 7:15. On a holiday this is what I would do.

You will love having the express pass, especially on a holiday! I have been keeping my eye on wait times lately out of curiosity, and some are downright scary! We have another trip coming up in early February and are again staying at RPR. It is a beautiful resort, I hope you love it as much as we do!

Any idea when they'll update this for February?
