Here is my plan. 25th- arrive 9:45 p.m. 26th (Friday)- DL 27th- Universal Studio 28th- CA 29th- DL 30th- Last minute rides at both parks and to the aiprort for a evening departure. I have been told that this is a good time to go. Is this true? Is Universal Studio lighter crowds on a Saturday or a Sunday? Any idea on what the hours are at both parks? Hows tha Clarion? Any information would be great! Thank you!
Originally Posted By Mrs ElderP You will find September quite diferent than July. Both can be good. The weather will be cooler, the crowds will be lighter, the hours will be shorter in September. Also, the special events (mainly I'm thinking Fantasmic! here, will be farther apart) There is more of a chance that a ride will be down. A few rides go down every fall, but not many. As for Universal Studios, I have no idea, sorry.

The hours were shorter, 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. at DL and I think 10-6 at CA during the week. Not sure about weekend hours. There are not as many shows, etc., but we did not mind at all. The weather was beautiful both times we went in September. Cool in the evenings, warm during the day. Have fun!
