    Official Halloween Horror Nights 2018 thread

    So, I read something on another website just now that has me confused. Our family has zero interest in HHN. Will we still be able to access Islands of Adventure in the evenings with our regular tickets during the time that HHN is going on (I assume so?)? Also do they start shutting down...

    Early Park Admission & Security questions

    Yep, 7 and 11. My girls, thus far, are slightly more excited for Universal than MK. To be fair, we're only doing MK this trip and not park hopping and if we were, I think the edge would be for WDW as a whole. But my oldest definitely is more excited for Universal, but she also loves rides and...

    Early Park Admission & Security questions

    Definitely! And I started a pre trip report here if you're interested in following along. Yes, definitely guilty of letting the bustle of Disney planning infect my thinking on Universal it seems. We went to Disney about 3 years ago and the first part of this trip (t minus one week!) will be...

    Trip Report Using Our Golden Ticket: A Poly, MK, and Universal Trip Report (October 2018) [completed]

    T minus one week from Magic Kingdom! T minus 6 days until we actually arrive in Orlando. I'll repost this question, just to see if anyone has an answer: Has anyone used delivery services, specifically Drizly, Ubereats, or GrubHub in the area? I forsee us using Drizly for wine and beer...

    Thanks, y'all. You all have been so helpful...and I now feel much better about the Universal side of our upcoming trip!

    Early Park Admission & Security questions

    DA appears to be the only one open on EPA while we are there so I guess that’s the one.

    Early Park Admission & Security questions

    Thanks y'all! I have to admit a tad bit of anxiety with the Universal part of our trip simply because we've never been. But I'm glad to know that the Express Pass is as worry free as I anticipate it being. My plan is to be at Ollivander's right at the beginning of EPA (assuming its open) so...

    Early Park Admission & Security questions

    Thank you both....Universal Studios (not IoA) is open for EPA in October. With limited early openings for rides, I guess that's why most every trip plan I've read suggests hitting Diagon Alley first. We were planning on that anyways, but nevertheless... Do the water taxis drop you off at a...

    Early Park Admission & Security questions

    Counting down to my WDW/Universal trip in about 2 weeks and had 2 questions... Early Park Admission is set for Universal Studios during our trip. Is the entire park open early for resort guests or just Diagon Alley? Our plan (obviously) is to head to Diagon Alley first both days we're there...

    Trip Report Lebeau Family Trip Report 2018: Universal Orlando

    Great TR!!! It's made me think that all the talk I had heard about the Universal experience being a "2 day park" might not be the case. Now I'm afraid our 2 days may not be enough.

    Trip Report The "how did it all go so horrible wrong" August trip to the world, let the madness begin. LOL COMPLETE

    :D Fantastic line! Hopefully the drama didn't intefere too much in having a good time. That had to be frustrating to have the unexpected "surprises" thrown at what sounded like a well thought out plan. Family...:rolleyes:

    Trip Report Lebeau Family Trip Report 2018: Universal Orlando

    Such a great report...this is very helpful with my upcoming trip in October! Did you have a similar housekeeping experience at Royal Pacific? Wonder if it was hotel-specific or Universal in general.

    Trip Report Using Our Golden Ticket: A Poly, MK, and Universal Trip Report (October 2018) [completed]

    And I’m one of the few that actually enjoyed the movie Tomorrowland and I messed up the name! Thanks—I always owe you and MrHappyPlace a debt of Disney gratitude for your advice and experience.

    Trip Report Using Our Golden Ticket: A Poly, MK, and Universal Trip Report (October 2018) [completed]

    It does. I think there are 3 properties that include express pass and RP is the least expensive of the 3. I did the math and for a family of 4 it was about the same price to move up to RP than it was to add express pass to our tickets at Cabana Bay (which was the other resort we looked at). I...

    Good review of WWHP food and drink

    A Muggle Eats Her Way Through Harry Potter's Magical Universe I thought this was a pretty good (and entertaining) review posted today of some of the treats found in the WWHP. Thought I'd share it with everyone else.

    Thanks for the response. My understanding is Diagon Alley and Hogsmeade should be free from the scary stuff, correct?

    Pre-Trip The "After The Last 8 Months We've Had, We NEED This Trip" Pre-Trip Report

    Following along... Have you looked into renting a stroller yet or were you planning on taking your own? We rented from Orlando Stroller Rentals and found them to be very easy to use (and better than the one we were planning on bringing). They had it there at the resort when we checked in and...
