What the plan is built from
Every ride at Universal Islands of Adventure is scored against its own recorded wait times, then ordered so each one falls in a quieter part of its own day. Choose the rides you do not want to miss and we make sure you ride each of them at the best time of the day, with the rest arranged around them.
Pick a date above to see the order for that day. It changes with the season, the day of the week and the park's hours, so the plan for a Tuesday in January is not the plan for a Saturday in July.
Frequently asked questions
Can you do Universal Islands of Adventure in one day?
Yes. The order you ride things in decides how much of the day you spend queueing, which is what this plan sets. Pick a date above to see the order for it.
What is the busiest ride at Universal Islands of Adventure?
Hagrid's Magical Creatures Motorbike Adventure™ carries the longest average queue, so it is the one most worth timing well. Marking it as a must-do puts it first in your plan.
Does the plan change with the date?
Yes. Waits move with the season, the day of the week and the park's hours, so a Tuesday in January is ordered differently from a Saturday in July. The plan is built for the date you enter.
Do I need Express Pass to follow the plan?
No. Every wait in the plan is the standby queue. Ordering the day well is what keeps those short without paying for Express Pass.
