Universal Orlando Resort Debuts New Annual Passholder Dedicated Lanes, Perks, and Merchandise

Following an extended closure, Universal Orlando Resort has reopened its gates, and officially welcomed all guests back on Friday, June 5th. We’ve had the chance to check out how things are going, and we’ve been impressed with the work ethic and attitude of the awesome Team Members at UOR. As part of our visit today, we took full advantage of being Annual Passholders from our arrival at the resort, all the way to visiting the AP lounge.

We’re ecstatic to be back at Universal Orlando Resort, enjoying shows, riding rides, and being VIP APs. To say we’ve missed Central Florida entertainment is an understatement. Things certainly look different than we’re used to at this time of the year, but it’s comforting to know we’re getting back to normal. This past weekend, UOR announced some new perks for their Annual Passholders and we just had to check them out! Wanna see what life is like for a Universal Orlando Annual Passholder (UOAP)? Then come along!

We picked up a button that says “Save the Green Planet” and has ET’s hand—with a glowing index finger—giving a peace sign. We’re also loving the 30th Anniversary magnet that features the park’s original marquee.
