Do you think it is possible to do the two parks in one day? I haven't been to Universal in over 20 years when I was in the WDW College Program. We ended up with an extra day in our schedule and the kids are crazy about Harry Potter. We live in the UK so seeing the reconstructed sets are not a high priority to us. We have been to the Harry Potter tour in London and seen a majority of the film sites. We are mostly interested in the ride themselves.

Should we just go to the Studios instead of the IOA? Maybe focus on one park instead of rushing through?

Is there a place to buy discount tickets? I am blown away by how much the tickets cost. I think I bought my annual pass for $100 twenty years ago.

And their "fastpass" isn't included with the ticket price? What? I am clearly out of the loop when it comes to Universal. Our kids were always to short to go on most the rides so I didn't want to spend the $ on tickets since they could not ride on most of the "good" rides anyway.
