    We have preferred Universal for almost 20 yrs. You can leave your phone in your hotel room and enjoy the company you're with.

    No brainer. Universal Orlando all the way. Going May 2024 with my best friend and a mutual friend coming up from Brazil to join us!!! This will be our first time going there. Also squeezing in a day trip to Busch Gardens TPA. Your channel has really helped me seamlessly piece this vacation together and for that, we thank you. 👍👍👍

    Universal is always more fun, affordable, and easier to plan for me and my family so it’s always our first choice. Universal often offers buy 2 get 3 days free and other multi day packages. Universal also has offered multi day tickets, Halloween horror night tickets, and hotel ticket packages every year and you can’t beat that- I’ve never seen Disney offer that deal for their Halloween or Christmas events. It’s always convenient and easy for me to plan and pick a flight, hotel, and ticket package for my family on Universal’s website- I’ve done it about 5 times since 2016. They always have hotel deals as well. Universal’s premiere hotels offer unlimited express passes for your entire hotel stay while Disney charges you lightening lane per person per ride and doesn’t offer any discounts. My son refuses to visit Disney because of how much he prefers Universal parks and hotels.
    The new Princess and the Frog restaurant is absolutely horrible- they claim to base it on New Orleans creole cuisine but the food is bland, barely seasoned, and I can tell whoever designed the menu/food sold is not a person of color and doesn’t know much about the culture and food.

    Universal without question. Less hassle, Cheaper, more fun for adults, passholders discounts are better. I have express pass i can skip lines all day. Dont have to make a return time and stay on my phone all day. Disney is falling off the rails. Use to go to disney every year. But now we go like every few years.

    I always visit both Universal and Disney whenever I visit Orlando. Both resorts have so many things to do that I really enjoy, and even though both have gotten expensive and a few rules have made visiting Disney more complicated, it hasn't been enough to make my visit frustrating in anyway.

    Love Universal and became passholders last year. Quick question regarding that though. They are up for renewal soon and they make it sound like the new year timer would start when we use them again. Is this correct or does it start at renewal date? They are also offering 3 additional months free so that is a great deal as well!
