My sons spent one day at Universal in the spring when they went with their high school marching band. They absolutely loved it, hence why we are considering a trip here. Neither myself nor DH has ever been and I'm having a hard time guesstimating how much time we will need here. I've asked my boys, and they are being as helpful as two, 16-year-olds can be.
We are thinking of flying down on a Monday morning, arriving to Universal between 2:00-3:00pm. Would it be beneficial for us to go to a park when we arrive or just spend time at our hotel and get the lay of the land? We plan on spending one night at one of their premiere (deluxe?) resorts to get the Express Pass. We also want to go to Volcano Bay one day and will probably spend a night or two at Cabana Bay. How many days/nights total should we plan for? If we did visit a park on our arrival day, could we see/do most of the rides between the two parks with Express Pass in 1 1/2 days or should we plan for another day? We would like to to arrive at Disney by Friday, but was also wondering if we could plan on a Thursday night arrival? We are planning our trip for mid-June, not sure if that will make a difference.
Any help would be appreciated! I'm at a total loss. I just want someone to plan out each day for me.
