universal

I'm a family of 4, 2 little ones ages (*7 and *4) staying at Grand Floridian for 5 days then moving on to Universal for 3 days. Right now I am looking at anything other than rentals because disney resort is 25$ a night and I don't anticipate driving too much when staying in resort. I do think I...

Hola Amigos! Les compartimos el show de esta semana de SiDisney donde hablamos de cómo es un día perfecto en Universal Orlando Resort. ¿Cómo es para ustedes un "día perfecto" en estos parques?

Hi all , I will be visiting universal for two days on a solo trip . originally be on Disney property . I am pondering of the idea for booking one of the hotels at universal for the two days specifically the ones with the fast pass express included. What would your thoughts be on this? For...

We have our family's first Universal trip coming up and the park closes quite early on a few days during our trip (one day it's 6pm!). Are guests ushered out of the park right at closing time? If we aren't in a ride queue, but say doing spells in Diagon Alley, will team members be showing us the...

Do you know if any of the hotels in Orlando International Drive will accept payments via Western Union bank transfers and will undercover tourist accept payment via Western Union bank transfers to purchase Universal 2 day's park to park tickets?

Heya We are staying this Oct and have a Universal Stay in the middle so looking at 6 nights Disney 2 nights Uni then another 4 Disney. We've done split stays just on property before and had bell services swap over our luggage from resorts, does anyone know if you can leave your luggage with...

My two biggest takeaways from Pete & the Dis Unplugged cast since Covid & Chapek. 1. DCL is a better value than WDW. 2. People are choosing Universal over Disney. I haven’t been on a cruise yet, so I can’t speak to the first point, but I would absolutely be willing to try one with my partner or...

Hi all, first of all apologies for all my posts recently hope there wont be anymore ! I am currently struggling on planning my next disney trip. I’ve recently come back from one after staying 2 weeks at Disney and only visited universal for one day and after the trip realising I should of...

Looking at taking an Uber for my family from Disneyland to Universal on a weekend in July. Looks like it opens at 9am both days. Is one day better than the other for the actual traveling? Like, would we need to be in the car earlier on Friday, or would it even matter? Looking to save money...

I have to admit that I am a Disney Fanatic! My office walls are covered in Minnie Ears. My amazon wish list looks like it was made by a 7 year old princess. I have been on Disney cruises, to the Tokyo Disney Resort, to the Paris Disney Resort, DCA, and to World more times than I can count! I...

I know this is mostly useless speculation at this point, but I'm really curious how the first day/days of Epic Universe are going to go. Obviously, there hasn't been a new theme park open in Orlando in a while. Looking into operations/media coverage/crowds for the opening of Animal Kingdom or...

I am staying at Universal over the 2023 Rock the Universe event. Does anyone know if the crowd from the event effects the park crowds the week before or after? I am taking my mom to celebrate her 65th birthday and I really want it to be special so I am concerned about elevated crowd levels. Also...

Welcome to my trip report! We go to WDW more frequently than Universal, so this was our first time back to Universal in over 10 years. It's hard to believe it had been so long! We took a quick weekend trip to Universal the weekend of April 22nd. We stayed on property, spent one day at the parks...

Hi. I'm currently considering a Universal trip. I might stay onsite, but I'm also considering staying at whatever is the nicest timeshare resort close to Uni. The rental companies which are usually mentioned (e.g. Vacation Strategy and Vacation Upgrades) are focused on Wyndham properties. Which...

Hi everyone, I’m trying to plan for a March 31 visit to UHS but their website only has hours for Feb. Why would they not post hours ahead for people to plan? Any guesses as to what the hours would be that day?

Hello. I booked a hotel/park ticket package for Universal Studios Florida through Costco. We are considering upgrading to season passes when we get onsite if we enjoy it and think we'd want to come back with a year. With the package deal I don't know how much I am paying for each park ticket. I...

Hello Everyone, Does Airmiles ever offer the same deals as the Universal website for tickets? I see Universal has a promo for buy 3 days get 2 free. As of right now, Airmiles does not have this offer on their site. Is there a way to get this offer from Airmiles? Can i purchase the tickets...

Hey dis folks! I need some help deciding which park to visit. Here are the deets: Visiting in two weeks (1/26-1/31) with 3 adults and 1 kid (12 yo). Looking to do a park for one day. The last time we visited, we went to Islands of Adventure, but they have since added Velocicoaster (I've ridden...

Hello out there! Anyone remember me…. Crickets I’m sure. My name is Courtney, I’ve been around the Dis off and on for some time now and have a wonderful habit of starting trip reports and not finishing them :rolleyes1. I did finish one about our trip in June 2019 and started two others after...

Hello! My husband and I are going to Universal in November. We haven’t been in years, but we do Disney about once a year. I am a big roller coaster wimp/have major ride anxiety. How is Hagrids Motorbike Adventure and/or Escape From Gringotts? My issue is big heights, big drops and big...
