Orlando Universal Epic Universe π’
No Early Wake-Up, No Early Entry, No Express β Full Day Itinerary Share!As someone who canβt get up early, we entered the park around 9:50 AM. We planned to buy Express passes but were told they were sold out π’. Little did we know, we were in for a surprise-filled day!!!Except for Werewolf By Night (which only opened around 9 PM), we rode almost everything. Even the popular rides had waits of only about 30 minutes β and it was a Monday holiday with tons of people π€―!For those who didnβt get Express and donβt mind splitting up with your group: GO FOR SINGLE RIDER!!! Saved a whopping $300+ π°!β οΈ Note: Single Rider lines skip the regular queueβs themed scenery.
