Edit: I've done some forum searching and the answers I have found I have placed in bold if the answers are not correct please advise
Greetings!
Me, my wife and 10 year old daughter have an upcoming trip Feb 14th through the 18th. The last time my wife and I were there was about 10 years ago without our daughter. I ended up doing the recent promotion but also tagged in an annual pass for myself which helped reduce the price even lower. I have a few questions I'm hoping anyone would be able to answer. So without further ado in nor particular order:
Travel questions:
We'll be flying Spirit (had the best flight times for our schedule) so I'm wondering what needs to be done in order to actually get on the plane? I.e. How do I get my tickets? How do we expedite our 'adventure' through tsa? What else may have changed since our PRE covid visit? We are all fully vaccinated.
When we arrive at MCO as we are taking the universal studios superstar bus, do we need to grab our checked luggage or does the bus take care of that? we have to get our own luggage
If anyone happens to know, what is the 'standard procedure' after getting off the plane at MCO with the superstar bus?
Resort/Universal studios IoA questions(staying at cabana bay poolside):
Where do I get my annual pass as well as my wife and daughters tickets? (we bought them all already as part of the package and did opt for park to park)
Is front desk the best place to go to get our room information?
I've opted for a poolside view, are there any sections that are better/closer to the main entrance and/or bus pickup drop off to get to the parks I should request? Americana section as per forums seems to be the 'best' for proximity
I've also purchased an unlimited express pass for the 17th. Knowing its Mardi Gras, but middle of the week how busy could it be?
General Questions:
How is the weather this time of year? Coming from ohio I'm figuring florida will be warmer but curious as to if we'd be in the rainy season (I know Florida is ALWAYS rainy...but wondering if worse...we lucked out with no rain our last trip there)
Any additional tips to make this well needed vacation for two hospital workers and a daughter who's never been on a plane or to any park short of Cedar Point?
Much appreciated for ANY additional information, tips, constructive criticism or even some sarcasm lol
Be safe all!
