We are going to universal 4/3. (Park hours 8-6). Universal’s website says early entry is for volcano bay that whole month and not for USF or IOA.
Does this sound right? Or does Volcano Bay always open early and maybe they just have not decided yet whether USF vs IOA is? That feels like wishful thinking though…
It’s certainly possible that both VB AND a dry park will have EE. I think it varies with the time of year. Our last visit was a July and VB and US were open early.
Universal is notorious for waiting until the last minute to publish which park will have EE. Plus, they’ll change their park hours right up to the week of travel. I love USF / IOA, but I dread waking up each morning about a month before my trip because I know I’m going to be getting a notification for TP that Universal’s hours have changed.
Thanks for the warning. I have Plan A of open entry at USG now (per TP’s guestimate it will open early) and Plan B of no early entry at USF or IOA. Sounds like I need a Plan C of early entry at IOA maybe too!
I’ve not followed it closely, but has IoA had early entry hours since Hagrid’s has opened? I think since last June USF is the dry park with early entry.
