Not entirely.

Usually only one of the parks will open one hour early. They can chop and change which one with little notice, it is put on a board on the way out.

There is limited accessibility to the park that is open early - usually only the Harry Potter area plus one other ride - e.g. Minions.

All of the Universal resort hotels have early entry (not just the ones with the express access perk like hard rock), so it is not as big a perk as it used to be. Thousands head for the few open attractions.
