Could you do more food reviews in Universal? I know the Harry Potter restaurants and we tried Mythos and Green Eggs and Ham when we went in November, but I’d loves listening to of good quick service spots to make our next trip a bit cheaper.

Now THIS is great timing! I'm heading to Universal with my dad in a couple of days and wanted to really see what new attractions would be a must! Although the Dreamworks section won't be open when we're there, I can't wait to check out Minion Land and Diagon Alley as a big Harry Potter fan!

What I love about the Universal Express pass is that you have the option to get a pass that lets you ride as many times as you want. With the Disney Genie+, you can only ride once, so if you want to ride Haunted Mansion over and over, you can only skip the line once. When we went with the whole family, it saved us money to stay at Royal Pacific where we got the unlimited express pass free with our stay. When I went last year with just my daughter, that wasn't the case, because the cost per night at Universal's version of deluxe resorts is more than the price of 2 passes, so then we stayed at Endless Summer Dockside and bought the passes seperately. Do the math, but I felt like it was totally worth it because those lines are LONG.

@tnwhiskey68 2 ай бұрын

I agree, we always stay at Royal Pacific just for the passes. The price can vary so much though. I had Mon-Thurs for around $300 per night but Friday was $900! We went to endless summer and it was bad. But dang, those 5 days for 4 people would have been around $4,000 for Express!

Universal is great for older kids. If a Harry Potter fan, 11 years old is a great choice, like going to Hogwarts. Food. It is very similar to Disney in quality and price, overpriced, and hit or miss. Butterbeer, the drink is a must, although most like frozen over traditional. Walking into Diagon Alley as a Harry Potter fan for the first time is like walking into the first movie.

@kingofswing3000 3 ай бұрын

Universal basically just looks at everything Disney does -- Genie, types of rides, annual passes, specials, covid restrictions-- and then does the opposite. That's why they're doing so well.

I mean, you dont have to make reservations or keep refreshing the page to see if you can snatch a time. Also, why have one or two rides reserved at a time when you can just go to the ride without all the mess. Universal Express Pass is superior by far.@@justicesjourney761

@@justicesjourney761are you joking? One you just buy a pass and can go on any ride you want without any hassle in an app. With genie plus we all love having to make a selection at 7am and then an hour and half later make another selection. Rinse and repeat all day.

@danilyons2367 2 ай бұрын

I’ve not been to either parks, but from what I understand express is better for the layman, as it needs little in the way of planning and scheming. Genie+ is better if you know how to game the system.

I've been worrying about a lot of things this year regarding my life. For example, worry about death, and worry that something might happen in my life in the near future. That's why I've decided to do Universal next year, because, even though I love Disney World, if I don't do Universal I'll probably regret it in years to come. So, I'm going to do it while I still can. At least I will have gotten to do Disney 2 years in a row, last year and this year

The higher price tag is actually better then Disney here’s why: the lower price tag at Disney means everybody buys it, therefore all standby lines are insane and it throws everything off. At universal people who want an amazing experience can pay big bucks for express pass but it doesn’t clog the standby lines like Disney

Can you PLEASE do a video on the VIP tours at Universal Orlando. I highly recommend the semi private tour. I think it’s a great worth for your money and gives you such a unique experience. Not enough people speak about it and bringing it some attention would be worth it.

The prices are per person... it's really expensive, but it has to be that way to make it a true express pass experience. If everyone was able to purchase express, then it really wouldn't be worth it.

You can definitely purchase your park tickets the day of - BUT the big benefit of paying for them beforehand is getting to skip over that line of OTHER people who’ll also be purchasing their tickets the day of! Ticket prices vary by date, but you can see price ranges on the Universal Orlando website ahead of time via their ticket price calendar.
