Hi All, My family (DW and DDs 15 and 16) are lucky to have snagged a reservation to throw beads at tomorrow's Mardi Gras parade. Does anyone know if they provide costumes for us to wear? If they don't, is it ok for my daughters to dress up (fancy, character-like outfits, colored wigs, etc.)...

Amazing, thank you!

Thanks so much, wdwrule! Did you use them at any of the City Walk restaurants, and if so did it all go smoothly?

Hi Everyone! Family (DW and DDs 15 and 16) is travelling to Universal in a couple days, April 18-26, staying at CB and SF 4 nights each. I'd like to purchase some of the Mardi Gras discounted food cards and have a few questions: 1) I'd like to head over to the parks the night we get there and...

Hi Macraven, We are actually doing the opposite transfer for our December trip, 2 nights at CB then 9 nights at RP. Because we are transferring to a deluxe resort will Universal or RP do a free luggage transfer? Thank you as always!

Thanks so much, Tommy, that's exactly what I needed to know.

Hi All, Visiting Dec 25 - Jan 4, 1st 2 nights at CB and last 9 at RP, traveling with DW and DDs 14 and 16. I'd like to plan some dinner reservations, mostly in CitiWalk, and wanted to get an idea when US and IoA generally close during this time, especially Christmas - New Years. I'd like to...

Hi Macraven, our family of 4 (wife and DDs 14 and 16) are staying in a King Suite at RP this Christmas break. As you are an expert in all things Universal, I was wondering if you could let me know what attracts you to room 3600? Besides views of the pool does it have park views? Do you by any...

I'm going to US with my family (DW and DDs 14 and 15) this February 17-22, so unless they give us a nice surprise and open VB before March 1st we will be buying 2 park preferred passes. We are also planning on going next Christmas break. Will we be able to upgrade the APs from 2 park to 3 park?

Hi all, thank you for all the amazing input! You've all given me a great feel for where we will be able to eat, and a comfort level that many of our favorite places offer outdoors seating options. nkereina, we are staying at the Hilton DoubleTree Oceanfront. We like it because we get a 2 room...

Hi All, I'll by traveling with my family (DW and DDs ages 14 and 15) by car from NY in February. We are going to stay a few nights in Melbourne Beach so daughters can get some surfing and beach time, then off to the HRH from Feb. 17-22nd. Since converting from Disney about 5 years ago its been...

CaptainKidd76, How do you make payments for your reservation online? Our family is going to HRH 12/25-1/2, and each time I want to make a payment a representative from Universal has to email me a link, where I fill out an online form, and then my credit card is charged within 24 hours. TYIA! :)

Hi Tommy, thanks so much for the info! I'm thinking what would work best for my family would be to request a room in the middle of the Americana Tower, so we will have relative proximity to both Volcano Bay and the Bus.

Thank you all for you input, any other replies with personal experiences would definitely be appreciated. FYI, the trip I am choosing between CB and SF is 9/7-9/11, my Christmas-New Years trip we will be staying at HRH. I am leaning toward booking a Tower Family Suite at CB. All the positives...

I just returned last week from a wonderful 7 night trip, family of myself, DW, and DDs ages 11 & 12, staying at PBH. We just activated out APs on this trip, and will take advantage of them again 12/26/18-1/2/18, having already booked at HRH. Our family would love to make another quick trip to...

Randomly spot checking individual dates in June and various hotels, I see tons of availability for all room categories. I know its frustrating, but I'm confident we will get AP rates for most of the month. Only question is when! :)

Can you tell me what your offer was (dates available, which properties, how much of a discount?) Do you feel you've done anything that might enhance your chances of getting an offer?

Thanks all! I'll start taking the surveys again and hope for the best. For Disney, I know ordering promotional material or DVC info can help. Is there any information requests I can make with US?

If I remember correctly when I first joined this site several years ago several of the board experts/moderators gave advice on actions you could do to improve your chances of getting these offers. I know one was to take surveys whenever they are emailed to you. Does anyone have any advice on...
