We all dream of taking that perfect vacation to Universal Orlando Resort, but planning on a budget can be hard. Here are some of my favorite ways to get really the best prices with the least hassle on airfares, hotels and transportation needs.
Flights
Hopper is a great app for those traveling on a budget! This app will monitor ticket prices for airfare, as well as prices for hotels. Hopper will alert you when prices drop, or a deal comes up.
Before I select my seats, I always check out SeatGuru. It’s got insider tips on the best place to sit on any plane.
Google fights the easiest flight search tool. I always start my search process here, then cross-check on airlines websites, or another search tool to ensure I’ve found the best deal!
Skyscanner will repeatedly pull up the cheapest flight options online, if you're not set on specific dates.
Accommodations
Ideal if your spending all day in the parks, and really only need a place to sleep and store your things.
My favorite website to use when planning a last minute Universal Orlando trip. Perfect for finding a last minute, cheap hotel room. You can find the best deals faster on KAYAK.
Staying on site has its perks. Access an hour before other guests. Staying at a premier Universal hotel- you get free Express Passes.
For Off Site hotels, I’ll check HotelsCombined first to see if I can get some discounted rates. It compares rates from all the top search sites. It shows some of the lowest rates for hotels near the park.
Getting Around
Helping you get from airport to hotel, vice versa.
