We’re going in December.

I don’t think I would do more than 3 days total for all three parks. There really aren’t that many good rides. So assuming you like roller coasters, I would do the two older parks in one day and do the follwowjnf:

Hagrid — best ride but currently not on fast pass so you need to either do it first thins as an aggressive rope drop or end of day.
Velociraptor — second best ride in park
Men in black
Hulk if you really like thrill rides (I skip this one — it’s the kind of ride that if you ride it too much, you will actually pass out due to the G forces)
Maybe minions which is fun theming but actually a crap ride
Hogwarts
Escape from gringotts
Maybe buckbeaks adventure which is like a 30 second ride
The train between the two parks (nice if you’re a Harry Potter fan, but not really a ride)
The other rides are all crap.
You can easily do all this in one day.
I would do the new park in the second day.
Three days I guess if you really want to take it slow.
I can’t imagine 4 days!

We’ve been to universal at least 6 times, so maybe I’m getting a little jaded. But they really have a lot of not very good rides that they use as filler.

Also PSA the food at the Harry Potter places, at least in the old parks, is astoundingly bad. We eat a lot of theme park food and those places are bottom of the barrel. It’s so disappointing because it could be so good. They need Gordon Ramsay to kitchen nightmare them or something and school them on British food.
