Universal Orlando Tickets & Timing
Pick tickets first—the choice sets your park order, pace, and daily plan.

Timing & Events
Holiday periods mean the most crowds and highest prices. Nighttime events—Mardi Gras, winter shows, Halloween Horror Nights—can impact access. Weekends usually outpace weekdays. Park hours expand in spring and summer, contract in winter. Expect heat and quick storms in summer, cooler starts in winter.
Book early: Peak days can sell out and add-on pricing can swing. Planning an event week? Get a free ticket + date check or ask an agent to optimize the schedule.

Universal Orlando FAQs
Fast responses to the Universal Orlando questions our Detroit, MI, travel agents hear all the time.
Do I need a Park-to-Park ticket to ride the Hogwarts Express?
That’s right: Park-to-Park is the only way to ride the Hogwarts Express, which connects Diagon Alley (Universal Studios Florida) and Hogsmeade (Islands of Adventure). Our agents can advise on ticket choice.
Is Epic Universe included with my ticket?
Access shifts by date and product. We’ll align your trip with the right choice so you don’t overspend or skip a must-have.
What does Express Pass cover? Who gets it free?
Express skips the regular line at most attractions. Guests at select Premier hotels (Portofino Bay, Hard Rock, Royal Pacific) get it included for Studios and Islands. We’ll tell you when buying it makes sense for your dates.
What is Early Park Admission and who qualifies?
Select dates let eligible guests in up to an hour early. Stays at on-site hotels or certain packages qualify, giving a big edge on top rides.
Do I need Dining Reservations?
Not all the time. They work best during weekends and holidays, especially at CityWalk and park highlights. We’ll set your targets and timing.
Is CityWalk free? Do I need a park ticket?
No park ticket needed for CityWalk. It’s the dining and entertainment area between the parks. Parking policies can change by time and event.
When should I Book?
Book earlier for more room options, better ticket supply, and a chance at promo savings. We track updates and adjust if it benefits you.
What if I need to Cancel or Change my trip?
Because policies change by hotel, ticket, and season, we work with partners to reset dates, carry value forward, or rebook cleanly. Need quick assistance? Call 1-855-764-2539.
