Should i do this or that, but i if i do this i cant do that

Sorr but if im spamming the board with questions, my trip is just days away and suddenly i dont know what to do.
The problem is if i should go 1 day and use park hopper thing or go for 2 days and do 1 day at each park.
Im taking my brother with me who wants to ride roller coasters but would probably love The Mummy, but also loves Harry Potter. He might only be going with me for one day and my mom has said that she would go 1 day with me. (you see the pattern here, yes im the themepark fan).
Or should i just go for 1 day to IOA?
I really think that im thinking to much about what other people in my party would like to do and not what i want to do. If i had the chance i would go for all the 10 days ill be in Florida and stay at the parks. But im suppost to go to some beach, shopping but hopefully something will save me from golfing I live in Iceland so, traveling to Florida is not an everyday thing so there is lot to do.
This is a whole lot of rambling but please give me some advice, 1 day and park hopper is that enough or 2 days, one at each park?

Calm down and relax. If you purchase the one day one park ticket and decide to go to the other park, you can upgrade your tickets at Guest Services. Just make sure you upgrade before you leave which ever park you're going to. One day at each park would be fine...especially this time of year.

Make sense?

I would shoot for 2 days. Going for only 1 day will make you feel rushed and people have been reporting good sized crowds at all of the parks lately.

The Mummy is great by the way! Don't be surprised if he wants to ride it more than once.

I'd say it all depend if you been to the parks before and know what rides you want to do and if you have the Express pass/stay on-site.

I did my favorites in both parks in 1 day and was done by 3pm, went back to my on-site hotel for Lunch by the pool. Later I returned for Harry Potter by night, as IOA was open til 8pm. I'd say I was lucky AND SOLO.

If you never been, 1 day in each park should be good!

And the Mummy is my favorite coaster, ever...

Both parks probably could be done in one day commando-style, with willingness to miss a few things here and there.

If you really want to enjoy the parks and take in the details and, if you're like me, repeat attractions (I need at least 3x on Harry Potter and Mummy to be satisfied!), take 2 days. Especially since, like you said, you can't get to FL as often as you'd like.

Been once to the park and thats what we did my family doesnt understand my themepark obsession.

Im not staying on site but buying express pass would be an option, but thats works only once for each ride and not FJ, so i think i would rather want to spend time and not rush.

Thanks all for your tips, i might be going alone for one day and take my brother once.
