UNIVERSAL ORLANDO RESORT How come Universal Orlando is the only resort without Waterworld?

15 Upvotes

Some Universal UK art is coming out and it shows Waterworld in the concept art and it always makes me wonder how come Orlando is the only resort without it? When it opened in Hollywood Universal only had 2 parks in Hollywood and Studios Florida, since then Islands and Epic have opened in Florida and new resorts got it in Japan, small Singapore that chose Nintendo World over Potter, Beijing, and now UK just makes me curious. How come we never got it?

I assumed the water table here might be a reason why but I’m curious to hear other reasons

UNIVERSAL STUDIOS Thinking of making the jump to Universal Creative after working at Disney — any tips?

2 Upvotes

Hey all! I'm looking into applying for some roles at Universal Creative. I've been at Disney Bubble for five years and was pretty committed, but I see some roles I’m interested in and am thinking about making the jump. I wanted to pick your brains.
If anyone here has gone through their hiring process or currently works there, I’d love to hear your thoughts:

- What is the application and interview process usually like?

- What do their recruiters prioritize on resumes or portfolios?

- Any general advice or things you wish you knew before applying?

- I'm going to school, so any tips for the intern hiring process?

I appreciate any insight you guys can share!

UNIVERSAL STUDIOS My idea for what could replace fast and furious supercharged.

0 Upvotes

A Harry Potter knight bus attraction with a queue themed to privet drive.

You walk in the building and suddenly you’re outside at night in the backyard of the house you snake your way through the house and out the front door down the street to the bus

The bus uses the same ride system that the train does just on a bigger scale.

6 separate ride experiences happening simultaneously.

Depending on what level of the bus you sit on youll get a different POV and whether you’re sitting on the left side or the right side.

The ride will have a moment where the bus thanks to a special floor and roof will actually get smaller like in the film

The story will be a standard death eaters are trying to attack the bus on brooms and Harry Ron and hermoine will have to stop them and maybe a moment with the flying motorcycle

Is it a good idea or a bad one?

TICKETS/EXPRESS Adding Express Passes to existing 2027 package ?

2 Upvotes

Should i edit my reservation to add the 2027 express passes (their edit feature doesnt seem to work... i guess i could call/chat)

or can I just buy the 2027 express passes separately a la carte... Then I guess I can link them to my tickets or the person at the front desk at check in can help

HHN Hhn on Thursday

0 Upvotes

Hey I was curious on how hhn is on Thursdays typically this year. I know you can’t really tell but for the people who go all the time what has Thursdays been like? I used to get the fast pass but now it’s too expensive for me so I want to make sure I can at least get most of the houses in. Is it worth the money this year?

UNIVERSAL ORLANDO RESORT How would you tackle this schedule?

1 Upvotes

We have 5 days of park to park, with HHN on Wed and Thurs as well.

Landing on Tuesday at 10am, staying on property. Flight is about 6pm Saturday so let's say until 2ish we have time.

How would you break up Tues-Saturday to combat the least busy lines/match it up with HHN? Is it best to stay in studios all day during HHN or go somewhere else in morning and hop over around 1? I'm most excited about epic as I haven't been!

UNIVERSAL ORLANDO RESORT Universal Holiday tour? Or wait for Grinch Character to drop?

3 Upvotes

I called Universal today and they have no idea when reservations for the Grinch breakfast will open up or even if it’ll open up. Should I just do the holiday tour instead? I wanna make sure my girl meets the Grinch!

The universal employee made it sound appealing and I am watching videos on YouTube and it seems like you get a lot of bang for your buck.

Suggestions please !

HHN How early should we arrive for HHN with Scream Early?

0 Upvotes

Hi everyone! 👋

We’re planning to go to HHN this year and have already purchased Scream Early tickets. We’ve got our strategy planned out, but we have a question about entry.

I’ve seen videos of people already lining up before 2 PM, so I’m wondering how early we should arrive.

For those who have used Scream Early, how quickly does the line move once they start letting people into the park? Is it worth getting there really early, or is arriving closer to the opening time good enough?

Any tips or advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! 🎃

HHN HHN discounts for passholders?

0 Upvotes

I just got the Premier Pass and reserved my included HHN ticket for next week. Unfortunately, November 1st was the day I originally wanted to book, but it’s sold out for passholders.

Are there any discounts for passholders who buy an additional day to the event? (The website mentions HHN savings, but I don’t see anything.) Also, is there a good value on going for two nights? Thanks for any help!

I keep going back and forth about getting the power up bands. We're huge Mario fans but I keep seeing mixed opinions. We have 2 days at each of the parks so we have plenty of time. Thoughts?!

UNIVERSAL ORLANDO RESORT No more single riders

Was curious why all the single rider lines were not open today, they stated that they were probably going to be phasing single rider lines out of the park by the end of next year. Kinda lame imo.

UNIVERSAL ORLANDO RESORT Coaster Death….

0 Upvotes

Anyone a bit spooked about the coaster death ? I know it has nothing to do with Universal but Six Flags is still a pretty large company. The fact that it seems like the thing just opened and he flew out is scary. The stardust death didn’t worry me as much considering it happened mostly cause the guy was handicapped.

Ngl that’s probably going to be in the back of my head next time I ride a coaster

TICKETS/EXPRESS Possible to upgrade to express unlimited

0 Upvotes

Going to the parks on the 17th, I know epic doesn’t have express unlimited so I got 3 day 3 park regular express, wondering if I could upgrade just the IOA or regular studios days to unlimited?

Would they upgrade the existing pass by paying the difference, rather than buying a completely separate unlimited pass? Haven’t decided which parks I’m visiting on which days yet, so I’m trying to figure out the options, im seeing express unlimited doesn’t sell out for those two parks are they’re both still available for today and it’s 4:30

Is it worth applying while getting your bachelors or wait until getting your masters? How soon is too soon? Is there even a “too soon”? Other than the requirements in the description of each internship, what other prior knowledge and experience would you need?
