To stay or not to stay, that is the question...

[ckelly14]

Taking a non-Disney trip to Orlando and Tampa June 1-8, 2013. I will be staying at a 2 bdr suite on Starpoints at the Vistana Resort for my trips to Sea World, Discovery Cove and Aquatica. Plan to go to Universal for 2 (or 3) days. Do I want to stay in my cushy 2 bdr suite for a few extra days (which is free) or do I want to pony up the dollars to go to RPR for the night or two (kind of a hassle). Staying at Vistana with Express option doesn't make much sense since it will cost over $400, and that's about the price of a Kid's suite at RPR. So do I go without any express option at all on a Tuesday or Wednesday or get the room for the night? Harry Potter is the most important thing at Universal for us. I think I know what most would say...

Since you are visiting around high season, staying onsite to get unlimited Express is a good idea. Early June isn't that busy but it will be hot and having the option to go back for a swim or a nap is great in the heat. Since HP is really important to you, take advantage of early entry for HP and then enjoy the rest of the park.
