I started watching your videos as prep for my Orlando trip this summer, but I've honestly been watching them over and over just because I really enjoy watching you two enjoy Universal and now Disney World, which makes me even more excited for my own trip! Also, just wanna say again that the camera work, editing, color grading, etc. keeps getting better and better!

Awh, thank you so much! You’re so sweet! Our goal is always to make each video 1% better, so it’s nice knowing it doesn’t go unnoticed!

@amyb347 Год назад

Went today. The line times are so accurate. We first rode Velocicoaster and the sign said 35 minutes and we waited 20. Same with Hagrid's; sign said 85 minutes and we actually waited 40. It was a really great way to get out of the heat for awhile

@ThePughTwo Год назад

😂😂 we love it! And yes! Most of the lines have great AC which is a huge bonus lol

@richardbyrd7268 6 месяцев назад

It kinda,maybe, sorta sounds like you're saying the signs aren't all that accurate.

@ThemeParkUpdate 5 месяцев назад

Explaining this from an employee perspective, especially with hagrids: We post our wait times based on an equal amount of express and stand by guests getting pulled through. Normally though (especially on not crazy busy days) there aren’t many express people so the regular line moves faster. This is especially true on hagrids where regular express isn’t offered, it’s only people with accommodations or single use express passes, so the regular line will 90% of the time move faster than posted.

@lethalwolf7455 19 дней назад

This is actually smart and is used in team management, it’s called Underpromise and Overdeliver. I’ve been in many management roles and trained managers. The concept is definitely transferable

@3Gads 11 месяцев назад

It really speaks to how well maintained the queue times are when Universal Express is considered unnecessary. I'm looking at you, Disney!

@ThePughTwo 11 месяцев назад

Universal usually does a good job of keeping things moving!

@mamanothing9506 Год назад

Here is a tip- We bring collapsible cups to fill up with water. Unfortunately, at Universal (unlike Disney), the big cups have to be put in lockers before you go on rides which we feel is a pain to do. The collapsible cups fit in pockets. Thanks for another great video! Blessings!

@ThePughTwo Год назад

We always have the camera bag with us, so carrying the cups doesn’t bother us! Lol a lot of people feel the same way about the cups though!

@remconet Год назад

I had the same thought with that huge-ass cup. In Universal you better walk around with as little on you as possible. Water is free anyway.

@largol33t12 Год назад

I have one major gripe about the lockers: sometimes, you don't get a chance to adjust your eyes to the darkness so you're fumbling around while actually blind. Then you have to wait what feels like a year for your eyes to adjust to the dim screen and swipe your ticket to get assigned a locker. Worse, if everyone wants to get on the ride, it's a huge shoving match. I'm honestly surprised that nobody has been trampled. At least the guests try to not trip over each other while struggling to find their assigned lockers. I think the worst ones are the lockers assigned to HP Forbidden Journey in Is. of Adventure. It was ROUGH trying to get to a locker. PS: you have to swipe the card at the screen to be assigned your locker. Of course, remember to KEEP your ticket in your pocket or stuff it in your shoe if you were crazy enough to come in pants that have no pockets. You will need it to open your locker.

@ItsGibsy Год назад

When I used to squeeze all of my HHN trip into like 1-2 days (because I didnt get PTO) I would always come home feeling like I need a vacation from my vacation. I was so stressed out and tired from all the walking and from trying to get everything into such a small amount of time. Now that I can actually take my time in Orlando once a year, it's so nice and refreshing. We spend 2 weeks there for HHN and like 1/3 of the days are like Chill days. Much needed. Don't overlook chill days.

@ThePughTwo Год назад

That's so nice!! We definitely know what you mean about the short trips where you're trying to squeeze everything in. It's so much fun, but boy was it exhausting!

As an annual pass holder myself, I too enjoy observing folks' first-time reactions to rides and shows. I recently rode with a large family on Jurassic Falls, and their very loud screams and laughter at the T-rex were awesome.

Can I ask how the weather and parks were in February? I’m thinking about doing universal at this time (I’m in the uk and have been 4 times)

@gleas1027 Год назад

My suggestion on the Express Pass, is to stay at one of the hotels that offer it free. Even if you’re paying over $400 a night for the room, everyone staying in the room gets an EP. It really is the best deal. I’m going again while Lowes Portifino is being renovated and got a GREAT deal on the room (under $300) with the free EP. Win/Win deal!!😁

@ThePughTwo Год назад

Oh yes! We love the premier hotels!!

@winnie2379 Год назад

The Club Rooms at the 3 major resorts are a must for us now. Years ago we were staying at the Portofino and our bathroom ceiling leaked with the water from the room on the floor above us. And no hot water for the bathtub. They repaired our room until 2am - and the next morning our bathroom ceiling collapsed!! They moved us to another room, took some $ off our bill and added Club Room access to all 5 of us. It costs a lot more nowadays to add this benefit, but we eat breakfast there, stop by for snacks during the day & return in the evening for drinks & desserts.

@MaJunior00 6 месяцев назад

I generally either go alone, or with one person. The extra money each night just isn't worth it. Generally though, the premier hotels are probably a bargain for many guests. As for me, I'm perfectly content at the Aventura.

@FighterChamp. 2 месяца назад

lol way to expensive it’s almost $800 a night for the premier hotels but compared to the other ones it’s like $250-300max a night with an hour early access if you plan on staying more than two days the best is to get a hotel that has an hour early access and just buy unlimited express on your last day or buy it for 2 days and just wait in line like normally… not to mention food prices are high. your idea is only for people who are willing to spend a fortune

@gleas1027 2 месяца назад

@@FighterChamp. I don’t go in the prime summer months, which will always be more expensive. I go in late August or September. Way better deals then. When I went, stayed at Portifino Bay, which was being renovated at the time, for under $300 a night. Got early access, plus free express. It’s all about timing it right.

@readerdragon7783 Год назад

I'm an annual pass holder (Florida resident woo!) and I LOVE seeing people's reactions on my favorite rides for the first time. Seeing a group of scared teens getting on the mummy while their little brother is excitedly throwing his hands up in the air as he gets seated? It's great haha

@ThePughTwo Год назад

@johnathanalexander7996 Год назад

Then, you'd have been on the ground laughing after seeing my reaction on Dr. Doom's . I'm afraid of heights and forced myself on it. The ride attendant put me on the ride on one of the sides alone. Nobody was next to me. So, I'm sitting there waiting and my mind starts to panic. It has even started and I think I started crying a bit and definitely holding onto the bars trying to pull them closer and keep it locked. THEN, when the ride started, you'd have heard the obscenities I yelled over at Disney. I had to sit on the ground for about 5 minutes after just trying to calm my anxiety. I didn't realize I had a fear of heights until I used some VR headset in Vegas.

We went to universal Wednesday and Thursday and made a couple of the mistakes you were talking about. My wife was so excited for the park the we did two 12 hour days and then everyone was exhausted on our Epcot day. I’m also a bit disappointed that I spent $1000 on express passes for everyone for the Thursday and almost everything was a walk on. I bought them well in advance so I didn’t pay as much as day of. I know you can’t really predict park volume but they were still trying to sell express for $270 each when we were in the park

@ThePughTwo Год назад

It’s crazy how not busy the parks have been! That’s kind of the difficult balance with express. If you had come a week earlier, you would’ve been so happy you had them. We hope you still had a great time at Epcot even though you were exhausted!!

Two days was plenty of time for that trip.

When the parks are crowded you want to save precious steps and time by not getting turned around or lost.

It's unfortunate that many underestimate the size of Universal. I think the problem is they may have been there when it was small (😂) and some came back after the expansion which is when the Harry Potter lands were built. They were probably overwhelmed by the size, thinking they could do it all in one day. That USED to be true - in 1990! I finally had a chance to come back after all that time and was still reeling in shock by the size of the parks. I was glad that I set aside three days to make sure I could see both lands and explore CityWalk without trying to have a heart attack. If you are on limited time, do not schedule fewer than two days. You need one day at Universal and one at Is. of Adventure. Remember, the crowds are NOT as thin as they used to be. Unfortunately, it is true that Disney fans are defecting in large numbers and many season passholders are grumbling that the slow days at Universal are getting rare.

When I visited in 2021, Gringotts had a posted wait of 60 minutes. It ended up being 3 hours. I had no idea how long the queue was and kept thinking the ride was just in the next room. It was awful.

@ThePughTwo Год назад

We’ve met several people through the parks! It’s never been something where we necessarily set out to make friends, but we’ve gotten to know some team members and other locals just from bumping into them all the time!

I went a couple of years ago in the middle of Oct. I think on a Thurs. and it was so not crowded in the morning. The rest of the day wasn't bad either. But it was chilly which I didn't think it would be. All I had on was shorts and a hoodie. The rest of the day was better.

That last one is probably going to be the hardest for me. I want to do and see it all and thanks to your videos and others that you have recommended I have learned about so many things besides the rides.

With the cups, is it true that its on a timer... Like you have to wait an hour before you can refill your cup??

@ThePughTwo Год назад

Haha it’s 10 minutes, not an hour. They do this because people were buying one cup and using it to fill other cups they brought with them thus “hacking” the system. No limit on water, though!

@jstamets Год назад

Yes, youth=super-human. As we've gotten older, we found that comfortable shoes and hydration are pretty key to a good day. We also bring the ginger capsules for motion sickness, which work great. We usually get some sort of breakfast at the hotel, or just get a late start and get an early lunch (Confisco or Lombards) and take the day as it comes. Often, we'll book an evening reservation for dinner in one of the parks (typically Mythos or Lombards) and just return for dinner after taking an afternoon break during peak heat. You're absolutely right about not pushing yourself too hard. We'll look at each other and say "hotel?" or "food?" and go take a break.

@ThePughTwo Год назад

That’s the way to do it! Taking breaks and avoiding the hottest part of the day is always the right choice lol. We agree about the shoes, too. We’re walking so much down here it feels like it’s more important than ever! We always have Dramamine on hand for Tyler, too, but they have it at med services in a pinch!

@vinibida 8 месяцев назад

what is your opinion about doing Island and Universal at the same day? Which option would be better: 1. Visit both parks only ONE day with a FastPass for that visit 2. Visit both parks in two different days but without a FastPass We’ll be staying at a Universal Resort so we also have early entry for the day of the visit

@ThePughTwo 8 месяцев назад

Most of the time I’d probably go with the one day at each park. If you’re going during a super busy time, I could see an argument for one day with express, but you’ll get to enjoy more of the parks with two days. Single rider can help with the longer wait times too!

Now, 15yrs ago it was about the same price as the ticket $69 🙄🙄🙄 now your looking at $100+++++ and this time of year an easy $200 INSANE! But again your choice on when you go. I'm going next Wednesday, my youngest daughter 14yrs old hasn't been in over 7yrs, made straight A's & was accepted into the Vet Program at her high school next year.....I'll pay the extra $$$$$ ❤❤❤❤❤❤

What you said about getting exhausted walking around the park is so true! I usually go down there for a week and stay in one of the on-site hotels. But I feel if I’m not moving all the time I’m wasting my vacation. We go and go and go until we just tank!

@Chris-jf8kv 9 месяцев назад

Im kind of confused do you think its necessary to buy fast pass during weekday in january or february?

@ThePughTwo 8 месяцев назад

Weekdays in January & Feb are one of the slowest times at the parks. If you’re really against waiting in line, express will still save you some time, but this is one of those times we’d probably suggest waiting until you get there. Unless you just wanna splurge for one of the hotels that include it.
