Seems crazy that anyone would join an express line if the regular one is shorter

We've stayed at Universal twice now, budget permitting it's something we will always do. It gives us two days to do everything we want to at both parks, as well as a night in a lovely hotel with a chance to enjoy CityWalk for an evening

We're going next week for a couple of nights and plan to hit the park in the morning before the park opens to the public and be back at the hotel for a rest in the middle of the day. We might go back in the evening. Only thing is the park is open early (8am for regular guests) so it's going to be an early start

Yip, it does depend when you go. We went September, and 90% of the rides were walk on, or max of 10 mins que, so I could not justify the cost of one night accomodation for that
