Touring?

[MrsCies]

Hi there!

I haven't been to universal before. We are doing two days, park to park and HHN.

2 questions:

1 - Are there special touring sites for universal like there is for Disney? I have NO Idea what I'm doing.

2- we have tickets for HHN. I would like to get their express pass on these. They are already paid full - is it still possible to add the express?

Thank you in advance!

Orlando Informer might have touring plans on it. They have a LOT of Universal information on that website. We find that a touring plan isn't needed at Universal - though if you're going during a busy time, then it can be helpful to know which rides are the busiest. I have to do so much planning for Disney. I love that I don't have to plan for Universal. I've never been to HHN so I don't know about that that.

You can buy the express passes
They are separate from your Hhn tickets

I assume you did not buy the package of Hhn + ep

If you want the Hhn+ep, call tickets and ask if you can change your Hhn pass

But since you are going only two nights, it would be cheaper to buy the ep separately
You would have two separate tickets for each night then
Hhn and ep

If you do the math you will see the difference of doing that

Break even with the Ff or ROF passes would be at the 4 night level

You don't need a touring plan at Universal.

Parks aren't huge and are close enough together you can easily walk between them in minutes or use the Hogwarts Express.

Have a look at the Universal site www.universalorlando.com

It has park maps with layouts of where everything is. Details of Citywalk, restaurants and hotels too.......so much information there.

If you are staying onsite at one of the three deluxes you'll have EP and Early Entry or just EE at the other 2 and if you're offsite get there as early as you can.......around 15-20 minutes before regular park opening.

Thanks guys, truly appreciated! Let me see if I Have this right. I did not originally purchase EP with my regular tickets or my HHN ones. If I call and try to add the EP on the HHN - will the EP also be applied to my normal ticket for the day as well?

Ep is separate from all tickets
It is not an add on but a separate ticket

Park ep are only valid for hours the park is open


Special events tickets such as Hhn have no connection to the day tickets

Day ep is only valid until park closes that day

Studios close at 5 on Hhn nights
Hhn ep would be valid from when Hhn begins which would be 6:30
