Universal+Disney strategy?? need help..

[ksafavi]

We are planning our 6th trip to WDW for Halloween, but now my kids want to go to Universal as well. I bought the on special tickets for Universal (2 days for $99 plus 3 days free).

Now comes the Disney dilema...we have 6 days to spend in Orlando.

I (and my mom) personally don't really want to go to Universal for more than 2 days. But the kids and dad may want to. So should I buy 3 day tickets and then add a day on site if we go to WDW for an extra day?? Just thinking that myself and my mom could go to WDW and the kids and dad go to Universal. Or we may all go to WDW, can't really tell right now. Maybe I will want to go to Universal for 3 days!

How easy is it to add days at WDW? It is any more expensive to do so?

thanks a bunch!

Our family of five did a trip to Universal and Disney. We started out our vacation with two nights at the Hard Rock Hotel and then went on to WDW for four nights/five days. I would stay at Universal for the simple reason that if you stay at one of their resorts, you get front of the line access to most ALL of the rides. This is wonderful? I haven't heard that they've changed it. We didn't wait in any line more than 5/10 minutes. I think we had to wait for ET and the Dr. Suess ride which is similar to the Dumbo ride. So staying on site is definitely worth it as far as I'm concerned. We spent two days in the parks. I still LOVE WDW but its fun trying something new. Good Luck planning!!!!!
