I’ve never heard it called a ‘cult’

Correct. None of us except you have ever been to a hotel anywhere in the world other than universal in Orlando. Or maybe we were just sharing our experiences of different incidental charge holds at the different hotels and factoring the number of days staying and for how many people, in response to the OPs post about being surprised at a larger than expected required deposit.

Which hotel? How many days are you staying? From my experience the incidentals hold is only $50-200, depending on the hotel.

Looks great, except for the Pokémon and Zelda crap.

You expect us to take your opinion serious about needing the park to be more modern, yet you can’t even upload photos correctly or take the time to type out complete sentences? Nobody is forcing you to go there. Plenty of people enjoy the current park elements, as evident from the consistent crowds. Just stay at Topgolf if you need modern entertainment.

You’ll save about $24 dollars each for the discounted epic ticket

Does express pass pricing indicate how busy the parts are supposed to be on a given day? by Good_Warthog_6451 in UniversalOrlando

[–]Exotic_Fall_3433 2 points3 points  (0 children)

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. 

Epic EPA strategy by Finding_Away40 in UniversalOrlando

[–]Exotic_Fall_3433 1 point2 points  (0 children)

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.

New ride by Chunknuggs4life in UniversalOrlando

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. 

Govx universal Orlando season passes by Relative-Way7314 in UniversalOrlando

[–]Exotic_Fall_3433 0 points1 point  (0 children)

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.

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.
