1. My family loves going to Universal Orlando, mostly because if you stay at one of their three on-site resorts you get an Express pass with your room key. You get to go through a shorter, expedited line, and can use the card as many times as you want for any ride (unlike the purchasable passes for non-resort guests.)
2. It's best to go to the theme parks a few minutes before the park opens that way there aren't many people yet. For example I went to Magic Kingdom a few minutes before the park open and I quickly got on the rides on Fantasyland first when the park open since it will get packed with lines of 65 minutes waiting time by the afternoon. I only had to use two fast passes on only two rides, but at least by 3pm I have gone on all of the rides. Best to go in the morning before the park opens.
3. In Universal Studios, you could stay in one of their resorts to get an express pass. You could also buy an express pass. The price depends on when you go. The busier the time the more expensive the pass will be. Also, I went there when I was younger with my father, who is handicapped, and we were given a pass to skip the lines. I believe they still have that policy now. As for Disney, there is no way to skip lines other than the fast pass or going during off peak times. If you stay in the park you are allowed to enter one of the parks 1 hour early which will help avoid lines. FYI - If you travel west to Tampa, Busch Gardens Tampa NEVER has long lines. I went there during Easter break one year and went on the same roller coaster 3 times in a row with no wait.
4. The only ways I know not to wait on long lines in WDW is to get there when the parks open, using Fastpass or staying for the Extra Magic Hours at night. The Fastpass system is great though. Have Fun!
5. Get there early. I've ridden the Hulk rollercoaster 3 times in the first hour Universal IOA was open. After that, the line was at least 45 minutes, and over an hour later in the day. Figure out which rides develop long lines quickly, and ride them first. It's not always the most popular rides, some rides can handle 1000 + people per hour. Ones that load more slowly, or can't have as many people on them at one time get very crowded quickly. Go during the off-season.
6. Hi I work at Disney fist if you are traveling to different parks in one day then go to the one that opens the earliest example would be Animal kingdom then Magic kingdom then Epoct and then finally Hollywood studios to go to since they open at corresponding times if you will be at one park then go to te most crowded line you can ask someone who works there what line will be the longest then ride the rides in the wait time hope this helps have fun
