w/ FOTL - Apprx How long to do US & IOA

[markv]

Bringing my 6 yr old daugter to US/IOA - we are staying at the RPH (FOTL Access!) for a few days before Thanksgiving.

I know it's impossible to say for sure how long since everyone moves at a different pace, may see rides more than once, meals, etc - but I'd like to get an idea of how much time I should allow for each of these parks since I can bypass any long lines.

Daughter is too small for some of the IOA rollercoasters, but we do plan on doing things like Spiderman & BTF at Universal.

Thanks for the help!

Hey Mark. Just got back yesterday. It took my family 1 & 1/2 days to see almost everything. We used FOTL and loved it!! My son did a few of the rollercoasters 3 times. We skipped many of the flume rides in IOA. (too cold that day for water rides). Skip the shows in IOA. They are very corny!!! We saw 4 out of the 7 shows in US. We are a commendo style park touring family. But you could see and do it all at a relaxing pace in less than 2 full days. Hope this helps!

I would say one day for each park and then one more day for the one you like the most.

I disagree that the shows at IOA are "corny", hokey maybe.... , but the Sinbad show is a must see for us every time around. We saw the "behind the scenes" documentary on the Travel Channel and it always intrigues me.

"FOTL" or Universal Express as it is now called is priceless for touring the parks but I would not use it to commando the parks and go. These parks have alot to offer if you just take your time. And with "FOTL" you can!

Have a great trip!
