Travel Tip Tuesday ✈️🎢
One of the biggest mistakes I see with Universal vacations?
People assume buying tickets means they’re done planning.
Universal has changed a LOT and there are way more decisions than most people expect:
✔️ Express Pass or skip it?
✔️ Stay on-site or off-site?
✔️ Park-to-park or single park?
✔️ Early Park Admission?
✔️ Epic Universe strategy?
✔️ Volcano Bay… worth a day or not?
The best part? There isn’t one right answer.
A family with younger kids is going to plan completely differently than adults doing a long weekend… and both will look different from teens trying to maximize rides.
That’s honestly one of my favorite parts of planning Universal trips… building the trip around the people going instead of trying to force everyone into the same itinerary.
Tell me below… if you could spend one day at Universal tomorrow, where are you headed first?
