Is there a day you recommend for going to the parks in early January? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe we'll see it added as an option in June? Or they could add it for 2027 so there aren't any ruffled feathers mid-season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SmartCat7162 Posted October 28 Share Posted October 28 My days to pick from are Sunday January 4th, Monday January 5th or Tuesday January 6th. I am hoping to go the day that will be the least busiest which I’m thinking will be that Tuesday since it is getting farther from the first and into the week. But any input is appreciated. We did decide to get the park hopper between IOS and USO. Once again thanks for all the help already!!Are operations in the parks typically really good? Right now my bucket list is Velocicoaster and Hagrids. Are there any other must ride attractions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We did decide to get the park hopper between IOS and USO. Once again thanks for all the help already!! Are operations in the parks typically really good? Right now my bucket list is Velocicoaster and Hagrids. Are there any other must ride attractions? Operations are usually very very good a this park, they all got headsets and everything. Velocicoaster hits like 60 second intervals pretty consistently. Velocicoaster and Hagrid's are both amazing rides, but I would add the Hulk to that list too. Islands of Adventure Must-Rides: Velocicoaster Hagrid's Incredible Hulk Coaster Spiderman Jurassic Park River Adventure (although it closes January 5th, 2026 until November of next year-MAJOR referb) Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey Those are just the best rides there in my opinion, but there are more rides that are good too. Universal Studios Orlando Must-Rides: Harry Potter and the Escape from Gringotts Revenge of the Mummy Transformers the Ride: 3D (not a must-ride, but pretty good in my opinion) Those are the must-rides I would say, but there are other rides there that are good too Single Rider: Universal uses Single Rider Lines, and they save quite a bit of time. But I will say Velocicaoster Single Rider will not save you much or any time at all. Plus, the regular queue line is super cool and much better than the Single Rider Line. So don't use the Single Rider Line on Velocicoaster. But, every other ride will definitely save time going in the Single Rider Line. Mummy, Gringotts, Hulk, and DEFINITELY Hagrid's will save you time. Now the Single Rider Line does often skips big portions of the queue theming, so if that matters to you I would recommend doing the regular line the first time. But after that if you want to save time and don't necessarily care about seeing the lien again, then go ahead and do Single Rider. Hagrid's Single Rider Line is amazing, and can save you tons of time!!! Now if you are a huge HP fan, then you might want to go in the regular line, but otherwise do Single Rider. The wait was a posted 125 minute wait and we waited 10. Such a time-saver. Sometimes the line can be hard to find off of the regular queue, but it is there. The Single Rider Line may be closed, but if you just step over the chain and go down there they don't say anything and just let you go. That's my biggest hack at Universal: USE THE SINGLE RIDER LINES!!! That's all I got right now, but if you have more questions feel free to ask!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
