We are headed down to Universal for our first trip next month, which was a fairly last minute decision so I had hoped to use a reputable TA to get us the best deal and any perks associated. I submitted a quote request to Dreams Unlimited in mid-Septemberand got a response saying they’d reach out with my quote shortly. Two weeks went by with no word, so I wrote directly to the agent asking for an update and she finally responded that there was no onsite availability, and that I would have to select off site resorts other dates which was false because I had checked all Express Pass resorts and all had availability.
By then it was basically the pay in full date so I booked directly online without a promo and certainly missed out on savings opportunities. Bummed but moving past it to plan our first trip on my own.
We are going the weekend before Thanksgiving (Saturday evening to Tuesday midday) staying club level HRH with four day 2-park Park-to-Park tix. HP is a big focus but looking forward to all of the areas and learning from scratch as my only other (solo) trip to Universal was in the 90s with only one park and it was a totally different park at that time!
Reading all trip reports and posts for recommendations and touring plan ideas, especially those beyond HP (which seems to be covered!). I think the screen-intensive rides may be a no-go for my husband who gets a bit motion sick from that kind of experience, and the kids aren’t likely to ride the extreme coasters, so I’m a little worried!
Tips for breaking up the screen/intense rides are most appreciated! Assuming early November won’t be pool weather?
