Mich's Islands of Adventure Strategy

  1. 1

    Early Park Admission: straight to Hagrid's Motorbike (the line gets enormous).

  2. 2

    Then VelociCoaster and Forbidden Journey.

  3. 3

    Hulk and Spider-Man at Marvel Super Hero Island.

  4. 4

    Midday: lunch at Three Broomsticks (Hogsmeade) and browse the shops.

  5. 5

    Afternoon: whatever's left + take the Hogwarts Express to Universal Studios.

  6. 6

    With Express Pass, the park can be done in half a day.

Note: Hagrid's accepts Express Pass as of May 2025, but its line is still the longest in the park.
