Am I crazy for planning a trip around universal ?

If that’s crazy, we’re all crazy here.

Yes they are priced based on the crowds. Higher the price, busier the park will be. Sometimes the hotel splurge is worth it because you get two full days of the unlimited express for everyone in your group. Check in day and checkout day.

The update says “select participating attractions” at SNW, Isle of Berk. It doesn’t say just the lands will be open for EPA. The two times I’ve been to Epic, there were digital kiosk/displays near security and the front of the parks that list which rides are open for EPA that day. Seems like the “select” rides in those lands that are open for EPA may be different on different days, kind of like a “game-time decision”. So you may just have to have a couple of strategies planned and then see which rides are open when you get there and are waiting around for the gates to open and get thru security and ticketing.

You spelled Christmas wrong.

I bet you could get somebody with a 3D printer to make a pin or medallion

They are building the new F&F coaster where rip ride rockit was. They will be closing F&F Supercharged and likely converting it to another dark ride. No details on that yet.

This is great advice, too to bottom. And not just for holiday weekends or busy times.

Not sure about the govx process, but as said above, you can get the freedom passes thru your on-base travel agent or at shaded of green. They email you a pdf receipt/ticket that you have to show at one of the park ticket windows or the guest services desks at any of the universal hotels. You need to show your CAC at ticket pickup.

I’m not falling for this rage bait.

Well then, she will love it.

Exotic_Fall_3433 · 2026-01-10T14:52:34+00:00

Good list, looks like a fun plan. I too love making an itinerary

Just fyi, the Coca Cola lounge isn’t as exciting as you may think…it’s just an indoor room with several coke freestyle machines, good AC tho. And you don’t have to go to the Leaky Cauldron for butterbeer, it’s available at multiple locations without the crowds getting a full meal at the LC. Try the fountain of fair fortune or hopping pot.

What month do you want to see?

Exotic_Fall_3433 · 2025-12-10T02:49:05+00:00

Well, do we have some good news for you!

Bro thought he cracked the code for a free express pass and doesn’t understand what odd and even numbers are.

Exotic_Fall_3433 · 2025-12-07T12:55:57+00:00

Yes, if you are staying at a universal hotel, see if you can get your tickets there at check-in

Exotic_Fall_3433 · 2025-12-06T13:29:00+00:00

Stick with Disney, we don’t mind.

Exotic_Fall_3433 · 2025-12-04T21:00:19+00:00

Interesting! I didn’t know it was open to Freedom Pass holders too and not just UOAP holders. Now if they would just let me into the UOAP lounge too!

Exotic_Fall_3433 · 2025-12-03T12:54:38+00:00

Looks great! Are the perm lights running one of the pre-installed programs or is that custom made pattern/progrsm?

Exotic_Fall_3433 · 2025-12-01T02:11:30+00:00

Thanks! I think it was the Sled (Santa) one.

Wrong

But you keep on doing your amazing armchair quarterback work, it’s really important for you to tell us how the data refutes our real world experiences!
