    AP Partial/Full Refund Question and Answers...?

    Same. As best I can calculate, between a December 2019 and late February trip, I think we paid $70 per person for tickets with MaxPass for 9 days worth of visits. So with the AP discount, I'm pretty sure Disney paid me to visit at this point (don't worry, they made their money back and then some...

    AP Partial/Full Refund Question and Answers...?

    I never received any emails (either the original announcement or an email about a refund being processed) but did just check my bank account and the credit appeared at some point during the day today. Not entirely sure how they calculated the refund amount as it was higher than I was expecting...

    Exchange Express Passes for Onsite

    Thanks for everyone's help! My brother returned the passes with no issues yesterday. The TM was grateful to have a guest services file number as it made their job much easier. The only problem was I thought I was going to get stuck paying for parking since I ignored the guest dropoff signs. In...

    Universal and/or IoA Picture of the day 2

    Not to answer for johamna but a fisheye lens was used. You see a lot of bad fisheye pics in real estate photos to get a whole room in one shot. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fisheye_lens

    Transformers: the Ride - Universal Orlando - Express Pass entrance

    According to reports in other threads, the express pass line for Transformers has been open since the day after the grand opening on the 20th. It was only not in use during soft openings and on grand opening day.

    Do your dancin' here!

    Leaving this Saturday night for a two week trip to WDW and Universal. I can't believe I've managed to avoid starting to pack yet so I can make it through this work week!

    Exchange Express Passes for Onsite

    So I got a CS reference number from guest services and so far everything is looking good for returning the passes. The question now is where should we park to visit guest services? We will be going to process the refund this Sunday, the first day we are in Orlando so it has time to go back on...

    Fine for healthy but disabled, not so much

    Not to gang up on a disabled person, but if I ever have a disability that sometimes doesn't allow me to walk, I would think a wheelchair or ECV would not be an option but a necessity...

    Glasses on rides

    Last time I was at Six Flags (7 years ago, ewww) they had nets under some points on the coasters. We saw glasses, wallets, flip flops, phones, you name it. And it didn't look like they ever cleaned them out and returned property to their owners. In other notes, just a PSA on all rides to make...

    Exchange Express Passes for Onsite

    What I was saying was sneaky was if I put in 5 adults, search for a room, and book it, I never saw any fine print or terms that mention the extra cost. I just called and the quote online includes the extra charge for 5 adults. That's fine that the rate goes up, it is not OK however if I put in...

    Exchange Express Passes for Onsite

    Whoops. I kept saying HRH but I clearly meant Royal Pacific as that's cheapest. The 409.50 with tax is with me putting in 5 adults in the search.

    Exchange Express Passes for Onsite

    I put in five guests when searching for rooms, is that price including all five people or do they charge you extra at check in despite no warning (up to the point of putting in your CC details at least)? $75 more is still $261 less than the express passes but it's a little sneaky.

    Exchange Express Passes for Onsite

    OK, is re-entry OK from the hotel lot? For instance, we will show up for check in early July 10 and park two cars in the lot. After checked in, we will go have fun in the park (we have five people and their will be five on the reservation). Then at night, only 2 of our party will actually sleep...

    Exchange Express Passes for Onsite

    Sounds like we will just park in the garage. I have room for five in my car, the problem being that it's a mid sized sedan and I'm 6'2". To say I don't leave much leg room might be an understatement. Also, depending on how annoying the sibling are, we may leave and come back at certain times ;)...

    Exchange Express Passes for Onsite

    I don't mind paying for parking. Just want to make sure I know when/where/how much to pay. Since we aren't staying onsite at Disney either, we will be paying for two cars each day there as well. We *could* all fit in one car but with five of us we may murder each other in the 15-20 minutes it...

    Exchange Express Passes for Onsite

    I think I almost understand. We have a townhouse rented so we will probably let my little sister stay overnight at Hard Rock without a car with her. Should we park both cars at the regular garage both days or is it cheaper to park "overnight" at the hotel even though we will be taking the cars...

    Exchange Express Passes for Onsite

    Thanks Mac. Last question (I think) Probably getting a Hard Rock res, is parking separate from the regular decks for day guests? Will having two cars and one reservation make a difference?

    Exchange Express Passes for Onsite

    Thanks everyone. I talked to a few different people who said it won't be a problem but I will ask for something in writing/ a reference number. One more question. What exactly does early entry entail, is it available both check in and out day, and any general tips for a Universal Noob? Maybe...

    Exchange Express Passes for Onsite

    So, my brother is financing a trip to Disney and Universal from June 30-July 13. I didn't realize he was ordering tickets when he was and he got two days worth of two park express passes for 5 people. :rolleyes2 He has the express passes as he chose FedEx instead of print at home. According to...
