Visiting Universal Orlando during COVID: Universal Resorts Overview. I always recommend staying onsite at one of Universal Orlando’s 8 resort hotels during your vacation, but now it is even more important than it was previously.

Hotel guests are encouraged to take advantage of their Early Park Admission benefit to access the parks prior to the daily opening to the general public, and hotel guests will be accommodated on a priority [...]

Perhaps you have been in The Magic Kingdom on a very rainy day, or have been caught in the inevitable brief afternoon shower. In all my visits to The Magic Kingdom over 30+ years, I was fortunate enough to have never been caught in the rain for the 3:00 parade (How did that happen?!). That is, until this year. It was supposed to be my 3-year-old daughter’s first parade, because 3:00 in the afternoon is usually when we’re back at the hotel taking a nap. But, I rearranged our schedule this time so she could watch it for [...]
