Fast and the Furious is never worth the wait - ever. The cars in the queue are the best part of the ride besides the exit. I generally visit annually and the annual pass is well worth it and I live in Colorado. Parking alone if you are there for a few days adds up in a hurry. Great advice as usual - Rick is the man.
My niece got picked for the wand show over a year ago on our last trip. She still talks about it and that her wand has unicorn hair in it. It is totally worth the wait!
Would definitely agree about Fast and the Furious, don’t wait any longer than 20mins :-) What I would recommend is the drinks cups, when we were at Universal we saved so much money in the drinks cups, you pay for the cup and you can drink as much as you like all day and if you are back the next day you can reuse the cup and pay a small amount and do it again :-) worth it
Saw you guys the day you filmed this. Didn't want to interrupt. But my family just got the Premier Pass, and got the 3-month extension on top of it. SO WORTH IT!
1000000% agree with everything lol, to speak to the early admission. I just went on Jan 9th and got in IOA at 7 am and I was the first to ride Hagrids which was really cool because not only were we the first to ride, we got to ride it while it was still dark and Hagrids is sooo different in the dark.
Things to think about if my family ever consider going again and again. You just had to put Marilyn in there did t ya?!? Gonna have to see Merf when we go. Cannot wait till we walk through the brick wall at HP. My daughter love Fast and Furious as do I so we are going to try it but it’s gonna be hard to keep an open mind. 😉. We are going to do the meal plan too. Thanks Rick! BOOM!
Great info!! I've enrolled in some top trading classes and chat rooms and in most of them, they speak highly of this same woman named M's Mariana Amber. And after seeing this here I think now would be the best time to reach out to her.
I'll just say that the last time I was there a kid walked up to his parents and said that the Fast and the Furious ride "was neither fast OR furious" I about died laughing.
I totally agree.. I have done this in both Orlando and California several times as well and if you are limited on time and want to take advantage of both parks this is a great way to experience it. Not only do you get to skip to the front of the line you also get to enjoy breakfast and lunch at the La Bamba restaurant which serves a huge variety of food and I do mean variety of every taste buds. Oh let's no forget free valet parking and very knowledgeable tour guides. While this service is costly per person this is definitely "Worth It" (considering you get everything I just mentioned) and if you want to enjoy every ride in both parks in a short about of time (6 hours).
The VIP is definitely worth it.... if you have only 1 day to visit. You can do both parks, with breakfast and lunch and no waiting in line at all. We got to do 10 of the main attractions if I recall.
We visited a couple of years ago from the UK, we stayed on site at portofino so we got the express pass - we decided pre visit we were getting the express pass therefor upgrading to deluxe resort. We have used express pass many times in the past and always found it good value. Standing in line for 2 hrs per ride is not a good use of time if your only visiting once or twice a year. Early park entry for resort guest is fantastic - word of warning they don’t let you use express pass for escape from gringotts until the park opens . So the regular line backs up quickly. My advice hang around the entrance of the ride till park opens then jump right in. 😬 Dinning plan has been worth it for us but you have to use it wisely . Also refill cups are great and can be used the next dat for a small charge.
I used your tips from your last videos about what’s worth to buy and it helped a bunch! Thanks for another great video! Planning another trip next year 💛🌟
I have had the Premier for a long time based on a number of reasons. Express after 4pm, free entry to City Walk clubs, free Prime Parking, and one free ticket to HHN. All these make the passes worth the extra cost. All the other benefits (discounts, early entry, etc) are just bonuses to me.
Shark attack is 100000000% worth it!! Murph is the best and he tries to adapt the little show to you so there’s something different each drink ordered.
I did the Holiday tour and absolutely recommend doing it. It did not include rides, but you got to go behind the scenes and my guide had so many cool facts about the park! The hot chocolate was delicious and The Grinch was hilarious! We got to be in Hogsmead with just the other guest in the tour and got to see the holiday projection show on Hogwarts castle while enjoying my hot butterbeer; Worth every penny!!!!
We stayed at the Loews Royal Pacific during the whole week of Christmas and it is well worth the price!!!! The crowds were great and the longest we waited was 30 minutes only because one person was working the line at the end. We didn’t mind at all. If you don’t use all of your meal plan, it never expires
I stayed at Universal Studios Endless Summer Resort the 1st week of December of 2019 and I spent a little over $1500 for 1 person and everything included and I recommend you to purchase the refillable mug because you can use that at any Coke free soda machines throughout all 3 parks and you can also use the mug for slushies and all 3 parks and the dining plan and if you don't use whun of your meals they roll over to the next day
That is why I got it. I live out of state and likely will only visit a few times a year. However, not having to pay $100+ each day for Express Passes is a huge money saver. The Express Passes also get more expensive the more crowds are expected. So, for Saturdays or holiday weeks, if your group is not staying at a premiere hotel for the unlimited Express Pass during your stay, the after 4 Express Pass is a huge help. I like to use the early morning entry for AP holders, enjoy the parks for a few hours until the crowds get annoying or I'm tired, head to the hotel and take a nap or lounge at the pool. The Premiere pass allows me to get the main hotel perks without paying the Universal hotel fees. Any AP will allow you to book the discounted hotel rooms, though. So, if you are only going once or twice a year, I'd suggest not getting he premiere pass but getting a lower level AP and planning a family stay at a premiere Universal hotel. At these locations, your room includes unlimited express passes the day of check in , check out, and each day during your stay. I've done a Saturday night stay and gotten an express pass for Saturday and Sunday on a really busy weekend(Universal reached capacity on the Saturday). The AP saved me over $150/night and I got two days of Express Passes that, if purchased separately, would have been $250 each day. The discount would have worked with any level AP. The hotel room was $330 at Royal Pacific with the AP discount that night. Staying during the week would have been cheaper.
Question for you Rick. We are coming in Oct with Premier AP. We were looking into doing a dining plan for 5 of the 8 days. They now have a dining plan with a souvenir cup. Curious if you can just bring the cup back the next day and reactivate and the cost of it? Thanks
IMO the non privte VIP tour is worth it because you not only skip the normal lines and usually go through the exit or employee entrances to enter rides, you also do that for non express pass rides like Hagrid’s Magical Creatures Motorbike Adventure & VelociCoaster. Cost is just slightly more than double the express pass, which if you're considering anyways, then think about spending a little more for the non-private VIP (up to 15 people in your group) You also get fed a light breakfast and full lunch on the tour and see a lot of behind the scenes on rides and other studio attractions.
The VIP Tour is totally worth the money. Yes you get to walk through the back areas to skip the lines at the rides, but that is definitely not the reason to buy it...if you are buying to just skip all the lines and marathon your favorites, you will be very disappointed. The VIP guides are experts in everything Universal (ask the guide the process to get hired) and will take you to a lot of behind the scenes areas that you would never be able to see as a regular park guest. The guide will give you tips and tricks for getting around the park by yourself, and answer any of your crazy questions. Plus you get fed 2 meals and get to use your lanyard to use as an express pass the rest of the day.
Hi, I have a question ! Can a express pass price increase on the day of when we at the park? I'm going on Sept and I'm still debating if I should buy express pass online or wait until the day of. Thank you !!
I recommend you buy park/annual passes and express passes online. - Better deals and no wait times. If you're flying into Orlando and staying at a Universal hotel, I recommend Universal Superstar Shuttle. It's worth it. They will transport you from MCO Airport to your Universal hotel and it is a cheaper cost than ride shares, taxis, etc.
@@Luckylucky-cf9fx there's a specific area in the airport near baggage claim for the Universal Superstar Shuttle. The Disney Express (Disney's shuttle airport service) is also nearby there.

@@michellele1063 it's best to buy express passes online and early because depending on how many people are in the park or if it's a busy week, prices could increase while you're there. But if you're staying at a Universal premiere tier hotel then express is free. My express passes came free with my hotel stay
Rix, might want to mention that for those who are 21, Duff beer (Homer Simpson's favorite) and Hogs Head in WW of Harry Potter. Those are in-house brews. In other words, NOT available to the general public. I've tried Duff twice and I can see why Homer goes nuts over it to the point that it once was the theme of an episode of the Simpsons...
Hey Rick! Can you please give us a update on how the mummy ride is when it opens back up? I’ll be there 25-28 of this month and just wanted to get a heads up if it’s changed for good or bad .
VIP tour is definitely worth it!! Breakfast at the Today Cafe is included (food, any coffee beverage), lunch is included (non-alcoholic beverage, appetizer, entree, and dessert), front of the line for 9+ attractions AND an express pass for the rest for your day. HIGHLY recommend!!
We are going multiple days would you recommend doing the VIP tour the very first day there or would you recommend giving it a day then going on the tour the second day?
@@ambergaffney2705 thanks for the reply. When we went we stayed in one of their premium hotels so it included Express passes to all their attractions. This helped us see all of both parks on our trip. I recommend you look into it. The express pass is something like 200 per guest per day so staying in one of their premium hotels and getting express pass included offsets the higher cost of the hotel and you might even save money.
I'm planning to go to Universal Orlando Resort for all 51 Days of their Holidays Celebrations! And, I'm hoping to have my entire Family and all Family Dogs with me!
I’m going to both the parks in June. Can someone please recommend if I should do 1 park per day or both the parks in a day? We will not be riding the thriller roller coaster.
We are going this weekend and we have 2 days. We tried doing both parks in a day and it was difficult. I am doing Islands of adventure first day and if we have time jump to universal. Then the second day we'll start at universal.
You can get on the express line after 4pm ( I believe that’s the. Time) with you Priemer pass. Also, I think it’s worth eating outside of the park... Mexican, Italian Jamaican... voodoo donuts Cinnabon...... w your discount from your annual pass.
You had me until you dissed Poseidon's Fury. I will fight until the end of days about how fantastic it is. It's creative. It's fun. It's my family's main MUST-DO! I suppose I can forgive this transgression....perhaps.
When do they typically start selling HHN tickets and express passes? That's one of the reasons my husband and I are coming to Universal for our honeymoon! 😄❤
It’s a must to build multiple streams of income especially in this period of the pandemic. Also, have in mind we don’t know if or when another pandemic can happen. So now is really the best time to start pushing a side hustle because no one can fire you from your own business and well your 9-5 we all know how quick they can get rid of you. If you have to work to pay bills by all means do what you have to do but make sure you get your priorities together. I've been doing that by investing in the stocks, bitcoin and financial market and I'm grateful to say I've earned a lot so far this month working with M's Mariana Amber through her registered investment company. Just do something that will make you money while you sleep, no matter how little. The pandemic has been a perfect eye-opener for us all to really see how life can be without your usual income stream.

The shows and parades are part of why I come to Universal. If you stop to see the Blues Brothers, wait until Jake and Elwood leave. It's fun watching them take off in their used police car, which is a faithful replica of the one from the movie. Speaking of the parades, I still cannot believe they have no Harry Potter themed parade. I THINK it's part of a personal deal they struck with JK Rowling who wrote the books. She felt it was corny to have actors portraying Harry, Ron and Hermione walking through the parks. This is why there are no character meet and greets inside Diagon Alley or Hogsmeade. Rowling felt that the magic of being in Harry's world would speak for itself. She was right.
If you book a Luxury hotel on a other webside (Like on expedia) do you still get the express pass (sorry for the spelling english is not my first langage)
I love them parks more than anything, but going in busy season is not worth it. It feels like cattle and when its hot it’s horrible. The have very few spaces to seat and with shade and the prices for express pass its not worth it unless its for Halloween horror nights. Most of the time the express pass its more than double the price of the regular ticket and that its BS. Bit im a masochist and i still go to the parks. Hope i get to see you one day Rick!
Tbh i know that Poseidon's Fury is technically not worth it from an unbiased standpoint, but i'm not gonna lie, i feel personally attacked and offended that it's considered 'not worth it' hahaha! it's very cheesy and old and needs an update, but every single time my family goes to universal, we go see it and enjoy it each time, it's sorta like watching old campy nostalgia movies. for a person new to universal, yea prob not worth it, unless they like that sorta stuff.

it was such a disappointment when I went on it, the story line was strange and to fixated on everyone's phones being put away
My kids love this ride though.

I finally went in Poseidon’s Fury and I actually really enjoyed it 😂 then again there was not wait because it was raining!
we always go! especially when we were younger because as a kid it was like WOAHHH yanno, but my mom likes it 😌
I really like it! Lol but I'll skip fast and the furious every time
What month did you go?
When Poseidon has no line and it's really hot ... it's totally worth it for a few minutes of air conditioning.
1000000% agree with everything lol, to speak to the early admission. I just went on Jan 9th and got in IOA at 7 am and I was the first to ride Hagrids which was really cool because not only were we the first to ride, we got to ride it while it was still dark and Hagrids is sooo different in the dark.

We did VIP at both California and Florida parks during Christmas week in the past two years and it was worth it.

Great videos! Do y’all find a particular day is typically slower? Coming spring break (first week of April 2023). Thanks.
I second the crepe place. I had the best crepe there, it was a savory one, quick and fresh!
Some great idea's in the video, you could do with rolling this out for the other parks.
The VIP is definitely worth it.... if you have only 1 day to visit. You can do both parks, with breakfast and lunch and no waiting in line at all. We got to do 10 of the main attractions if I recall.

Is the photo pass work during the Orlando informer nights? Anybody know?
VERY good job on this video thx this one is a keeper for our next trip saved videos!
Express passes for Halloween event is a must. Regular lines are crazy at that event
It is way worth the premier pass, that is what I got my family and the express after 4 is worth every penny we paid for it.
*If* you live nearby
They have express passes after 4? I didn't know that. Is it always an option? I'm going in June and that's something I would be interested in.
@@judiplaz yes with premier pass you get express pass every day after 4 some times they have started it at 2.

Omg!! That brisket crepe 🤤🤤
With An express pass can u skip the lines to the olivander show in HP?
The photo pass is cheaper online than in the parks. Plus watch the website for their deals on passes.
When I went to universal I got one day and we got to ride like 5 rides it was so much fun
The VIP is worth it. I would not do the two park one. It's just too much to do in one day.
But it is a great time and super fun
Always with the best info! Favorite theme park TH-camr!
Question for you Rick. We are coming in Oct with Premier AP. We were looking into doing a dining plan for 5 of the 8 days. They now have a dining plan with a souvenir cup. Curious if you can just bring the cup back the next day and reactivate and the cost of it? Thanks
Also- if you bring your souvenir Butterbeer cup back, refills are discounted!
How much? I wasn't aware of this perk.
@@craigbrown2748 don't hold me to it, but I think you get like $1.50 off
IMO the non privte VIP tour is worth it because you not only skip the normal lines and usually go through the exit or employee entrances to enter rides, you also do that for non express pass rides like Hagrid’s Magical Creatures Motorbike Adventure & VelociCoaster.

It is always cheaper for us to stay at a luxury hotel and get free unlimited express. Than to stay at budget resort and buy the passes for every day.

As a Premier pass holder, we did the VIP during the bonus holiday discount and it was worth every penny!
The premier pass also includes express pass after 4 pm everyday. THAT is really worth the price of the pass.
Agreed!!
I'm planning to go to Universal Orlando Resort for all 51 Days of their Holidays Celebrations! And, I'm hoping to have my entire Family and all Family Dogs with me!
I think the vacation packages are very much worth it. It reduces the total cost of the trip by a significant amount!
We planning to go there on spring break I have 12 . 8 and 4 years old boys are they gonna enjoy it especially the youngest?
If you stay at hard rock do you get express passes for HHN or do you need to purchase those separately?
Definitely saw you this week!!!
I’ll be there this Saturday Rick, hope to see you 😃
I’m going to both the parks in June. Can someone please recommend if I should do 1 park per day or both the parks in a day? We will not be riding the thriller roller coaster.
We are going this weekend and we have 2 days. We tried doing both parks in a day and it was difficult. I am doing Islands of adventure first day and if we have time jump to universal. Then the second day we'll start at universal.
I did the math and the basic pass even for one trip if you plan on going for more than one day.
How much are the express passes? And if I buy one in universal can I use that same pass for islands of adventure
You can get on the express line after 4pm ( I believe that’s the correct Time) with your Priemer pass.
Thanks for the tips Rick 👍
Quick question, for those who visit with only 2 people is the dining plan still worth it? It'll be myself and my son.
My Mother hates Halloween with a passion! I tell you what. She does not want to hear about Halloween at all!!
I love this! Thank you!!!!
@Rix Flix - does universal offer half day passes ?
No
You can get on the express line after 4pm ( I believe that’s the. Time) with you Priemer pass. Also, I think it’s worth eating outside of the park... Mexican, Italian Jamaican... voodoo donuts Cinnabon...... w your discount from your annual pass.
What there's a photo pas this Is new how much does it cost and for how long/daily?
Do they have fireworks and shows or are they canceled due to the pandemic?
Those unlimited express passes have us spoiled 🎉
Totally disagree about Poseidon’s Fury - we LOVED that!
SAME!!! We go every time
You had me until you dissed Poseidon's Fury. I will fight until the end of days about how fantastic it is. It's creative. It's fun. It's my family's main MUST-DO! I suppose I can forgive this transgression....perhaps.
Haha, I respect that!
But with the pandemic, are crowds and lines smaller? Express pass worth it June 2021?
Yes totally
Thank you for the video
I'll be there this weekend for the OI Meetup
Did u know they have stopped the free shuttle service from airport to Lowe's pacific. They just stopped. I am coming in April.
Can you please tell me what a butter beer is? I never had one.
Celestina and The Frog Choir, always worth it.
Yesterday I went the simpsons ride was incredible with the big screen it’s really good
Awesome vlog
We have a few hours this morning, where can we spend 13 unused snack credits? Is there stuff we can take home? Trip was great..going back for HHN 2021
peep the Vegan Sausage! I'm excited to try that 😍
The things that are worth my money is the merchandise I can buy
Great tips
When do they typically start selling HHN tickets and express passes? That's one of the reasons my husband and I are coming to Universal for our honeymoon! 😄❤
It’s a must to build multiple streams of income especially in this period of the pandemic. Also, have in mind we don’t know if or when another pandemic can happen. So now is really the best time to start pushing a side hustle because no one can fire you from your own business and well your 9-5 we all know how quick they can get rid of you. If you have to work to pay bills by all means do what you have to do but make sure you get your priorities together. I've been doing that by investing in the stocks, bitcoin and financial market and I'm grateful to say I've earned a lot so far this month working with M's Mariana Amber through her registered investment company. Just do something that will make you money while you sleep, no matter how little. The pandemic has been a perfect eye-opener for us all to really see how life can be without your usual income stream.

You guys should stay at Portofino Bay if you like Italy 🇮🇹 or Royal Pacific if you like Hawaii theme
The shows and parades are part of why I come to Universal. If you stop to see the Blues Brothers, wait until Jake and Elwood leave. It's fun watching them take off in their used police car, which is a faithful replica of the one from the movie. Speaking of the parades, I still cannot believe they have no Harry Potter themed parade. I THINK it's part of a personal deal they struck with JK Rowling who wrote the books. She felt it was corny to have actors portraying Harry, Ron and Hermione walking through the parks. This is why there are no character meet and greets inside Diagon Alley or Hogsmeade. Rowling felt that the magic of being in Harry's world would speak for itself. She was right.
Do you get early park admission with tear one Annual pass?
What would you recommend for visitors (from the UK) staying for 2 weeks but not on site????
@@mortar235 This time we are staying over in the Davenport area. Just off Highway 27 about 20-30 minutes drive away. Depending on traffic.
Do you think with the buy 1 get 4 free is good?? Or a pass is better?
Premier pass you get express too!
After 3pm I think.
After 4 normally, but right now, it is after 2 during the week and after 4 on weekends. :)
Any idea why they are not doing Cinematic Celebration this week? :(
Lower crowd levels
Oh that’s funny because I got green eggs and ham last time we were there
If you book a Luxury hotel on a other webside (Like on expedia) do you still get the express pass (sorry for the spelling english is not my first langage)
Yes
I love them parks more than anything, but going in busy season is not worth it. It feels like cattle and when its hot it’s horrible. The have very few spaces to seat and with shade and the prices for express pass its not worth it unless its for Halloween horror nights. Most of the time the express pass its more than double the price of the regular ticket and that its BS. Bit im a masochist and i still go to the parks. Hope i get to see you one day Rick!
I like Poseidon's Fury :C
Tbh i know that Poseidon's Fury is technically not worth it from an unbiased standpoint, but i'm not gonna lie, i feel personally attacked and offended that it's considered 'not worth it' hahaha! it's very cheesy and old and needs an update, but every single time my family goes to universal, we go see it and enjoy it each time, it's sorta like watching old campy nostalgia movies. for a person new to universal, yea prob not worth it, unless they like that sorta stuff.
I like that experience...the water tunnel is really fun. I also think the design of the entire area is amazing enough that it deserves some attention.
