Universal has now changed the express pass to work for Hagrids

We just went the last week of may, but it was suuuuper hot. One thing I’ve never heard mentioned is that almost all the lines and rides at the main park are air conditioned. This made our trip so much more enjoyable, and I’m so glad we decided on that park.
The other deciding factor for us live close to a six flags, so we already have access to all the typical amusement park rides. The main park has the most 3d rides, which are not at the six flags by us.

We are AP holders (top-tier, Universal & Islands). But AP express doesn’t kick in till 4p, a bummer for off-season hrs when Universal closes as early as 6p & Islands at 7p. So the premier hotel passes are still really nice. Have yet to see how APs & park2park will work with new property.
@Crazypaizy1I’m going next month
@Katseye_fan12cap...
@GOAT-d5s2 Harry Potter themes but no World of Warcraft. Who does their planning?
@youlosttoGoing to Universal tomorrow!
@mwlam76express passes should be cancelled everyone should have equall treatment inside the parks .i never supported this marketing
@lvnean1How long are the cups good for .
@vintagecologneman481You’re right. My girlfriend and I are taking my son to universal studios for his 9th birthday in May. He has no idea that we are going as I’m keeping it a secret. I’m going to surprise him on his birthday which is 4 days before we leave. We are staying at cabana bay. So excited!!
@nicholasfuller6358You are write
@LukasLamper-tw2jfYou are
@Silver_cellThe Jurassic Park discovery center is also air conditioned so if you need a cool off break it's a great place to take the kids while you sit & relax in the cool air.
@beccab8015How large are the complimentary lockers? Can I stick a moderate-sized backpack in one?
@skzion2I'm used to long lines at Ceder Point. When you said 2 hours was long, I was shocked. I'm used to waiting 3-3.5 hours for a ride at Cedar Point, and they have nothing to look at. So, I think I'll be fine without the express pass.
@prod.hellfulI must have missed something. What hotel costs only $350 that includes Express passes! Everything I saw was close to or over $1,000 a night
@stevethemagicguyMe and my fiancé are going to the big four places in Orlando for our honeymoon in June. We were really hoping to buy single day tickets to Epic Universe but saw they’re not yet open to the public. Is there any kind of time frame to when those will be available?
@jrodbeastlyPlease make sure if you are new to universal is riding men in black
@WillHankinsQBI remember going to that place!
@TheSquishyCherryHelpful
@Highhopes103Thank you for sharing this! I'm planning to go to Universal tomorrow and I might check those places out.
@haleynason1851This is nice to see. I unsubscribed years ago, because we don’t support Disney. We are now considering Universal, and here you are. I missed you!
@Mark_DamianThanks
@Heheheha42-z5nJust booked my trip for early May (before Epic Universe opens). 3 days Universal, 2 days Disney, 1 day Bush Gardens. Plan is saturday arrival, sunday jetlag, monday, tuesday wednesday Universal, thursday rest, or if I'm still alive maybe sea world, friday disney, saturday Bush Gardens, Sunday rest, monday more Disney. I think I might need another vacation after that just to recover.

@jamesmiller1681When you're tired and hot from walking around in the Florida heat, take a break (while continuing the fun) by watching a show. Personal recommendation from me is The Bourne Stuntacular, right at the front of Studios. A tip for this show is not to sit in the first few rows, as the seats dip down a bit too low to see over the front ledge of the stage. If you're at Isles, I recommend seeing the Animal Actors show, in-between E.T. and Krustyland. This one is a little campy and dated in its tone, but that's what gives it its charm in my opinion. Reminds me of watching Pet Star back in the day on Animal Planet.
P.S. all the freestyle machines dispense ice and water free of charge, so feel free to bring an empty water bottle/jug. Or 2. Or 50. Maybe don't bring 50.
Yeah, you're right! We booked up Orlando for next May a few months ago... and today I just bought the park tickets. We land the day after Epic opens!! I always do Universal, haven't done Disney since 1989 lol

@LeightonEdwina-k5fBRO YOU ARE we are going in 23 days
@Trey_LockhartI'm looking at spending 2 weeks at universal soon I'm currently waiting for epic to open with 4 days for epic universe, a week for the other 3 universal parks and 2 or 3 days for other things in and around the orlando area like sea world and Ripleys. May cost a small fortune but as I'm flying in from England especially for universal I want to get the most out of my 2 weeks there and make sure I get to do everything I want high on my list is dark universe, all the harry potter lands and simpsons land
@werewolf_youtubeUniversal is the best !

@AlcottKing-n2sThe express pass being expensive is what makes it work so well. Less people buy it because they can't afford it or don't feel like it's wise to pay for it. Because less people will buy it, less people will be in the line. Also, if Hagrid's was on Express, many people who don't want to buy it will suddenly think it's a good value and the Express lines for the other rides will get longer cause more people will get it (again, because they now find it a worthy value).
@ReelmileageI'll be there in 45 days 🙌🏼 Can't wait.
