I am wondering, does the purchase of an annual pass at Universal come with the privilege of bringing a guest a couple times, as in some other smaller theme parks? (i.e. Six Flags) Or is Universal too big time for that? I ask because I am going to Disney twice next year, with two separate people, and looking to do a day at Universal on each trip. I'm thinking an annual pass for myself is the best deal, but before we purchase tickets for the others, I'm investigating all options.

Also, how about a no expiration option? Could buy two day passes, and use the second day on the second trip?
