How do Universal Orlando tickets work?

A Universal Park-to-Park ticket lets you move from one park to another on the same day and is the only way to ride the Hogwarts Express attraction that connects the two parks.

Universal Express

Universal Express allows guests to pay (or stay in particular hotels) to “skip the line” at park attractions by using prioritized "Universal Express" queues (similar to Lightning Lane queues at Disney World). You’ll usually wait less than one-fifth of the posted standby wait, and usually no more than 15 to 20 minutes. Universal Express has its own rules and best practices. We’ll tell you what you need to know.

At Cabana Bay we had a spacious suite and a gorgeous pool area. We found Universal to be lots of fun and a great value.

Access to excellent, reasonably-priced dining at CityWalk was amazing; Vivo and Cowfish in particular were favorites.

Universal's rides are superior, especially for an 11-year old who loves thrill rides.

Having three days at Universal was a wonderful vacation for my family. When it was time to leave we felt fulfilled and grateful for the long time we had to enjoy the individual areas.

We loved Animal Kingdom, particularly the architecture and artistry of Africa. We did the Wild Africa Trek and it was the highlight of our trip.
