Considering visiting Universal during our Spring Break (week after Easter). This is our first time, so I am researching and trying to figure out all our options.
I know that's a busy time, but I have no idea how crowded it will actually be. (We go to Disney every year, but usually at off-peak times. Our busiest was mid-June, never a holiday.)
I'm just not sure I am willing to spend the Universal Resort prices for a 4 or 5 day trip. We just went to Disney and my oldest is graduating this year, so I have college tuition on my mind. But if we are not going to be able to ride anything without waiting hours and it will be miserable, I would rather pay the extra or wait and go another time.
The express passes are over $1000 for my family (if we stay offsite and just purchase tickets). The onsite resort price difference is $1500-2000 more.
