Hello. My family and I are planning to arrive at Universal this Sunday 12/18. We will be driving in early in the morning staying at Cabana bay for the first time. We have not been to Universal since before the pandemic and want to buy premier annual passes for the trip. I am trying to figure out the best logistics that will allow us to park at Cabana Bay, Check In, Buy annual passes and then get to Islands of Adventure for early access hours (either by virtue of being a resort guest or having the new annual passes). Can anyone please advise the best process for achieving this in the quickest amount of time? Not having stayed at Cabana Bay I don't know if the busses or walking path is faster. Also, can I buy our annual passes inside the hotel or do I need to do that at a ticket gate outside Islands of Adventure? Additionally, if anyone can advise what time you think we should arrive at Cabana Bay in order to do all of this and allow time to be at the gate when it opens at 8:00 am. We have a 2 hour drive to Orlando and don't mind leaving at the crack of dawn. Just want to allow enough time to set us up for a great day. Thanks in advance.
