i want to go to a theme parks in orlando florida?

i want to go to one of the theme parks in orlando, preferably Universal Orlando Studios. They have this thing where u can get an express pass where u can skip the lines. how does that work? Is it really worth it to get that pass? Does the parks really get over crowded that u may not get a chance to get a ride on something? Please let me know all the details

1. You scan your card at a machine.. they print out a ticket with a time frame.. you show up to that ride between the times given and, you enter in the "express pass" line.. and, you get to get on before other people who were waiting for an hour. lol Universal is an awesome park! Have fun!!
2. the pass is free okay here's how it works one ticket can only hold one express pass at one time so you have to wait until you use the current one or it expires to get a new one the pass can actually save around 45mins. to 1hr. at the longest rides the people let for example 2 from the express lane for each person in the normal lane that's how it's faster and the parks arent that crowded, just a little crowded like a six flags
3. Alot of the crowd depends on what time of the year you go, i know when we go the express pass is really nice to have. but sometimes the lines are short enough to deal with. so its really your call when you get there. most of the time though its pretty crowded.
4. here's a great deal that will save u money . both universal parks - 7 day pass for $99.00 . u can go 7 consecutive days to both universal parks . you can leave 1 universal park and go to the other . it's called the ( TWO PARK UNLIMITED ADMISSION ). and if you're interested in going to see the BLUE MAN GROUP you can get a package to see thier show / plus the 2 park unlimited admission for $144.00 - $154.00
5. A couple of people seem to be getting Universal's Express Pass, which does cost money, confused with Disney's Fastpass, which is free to all guests. If you go to Universal, you can get free Express Pass privileges if you stay in one of their hotels. If that is the only place you are going, it's probably worth it. If you are staying elsewhere, the price varies depending on what day you are going. Prices go up as attendance is expected to go up. It's quite pricey in my opinion. However, if you are going in the middle of the summer, it will certainly help you a lot! Universal's parks are smaller than Disney's with less to do, so you probably can cover everything or nearly everything in a day, even without Express Pass. But you may not get the chance to go back and do your favorites a second time.
