Universal Orlando Resort Crowd Report – November 2 to 8, 2014

By Fred Hazelton




Last week was the slowest week at Universal Orlando Resort since early September. We saw crowd levels less than ’5′ all week at both parks. Our estimates were consistently a level or two too high which tells us that attendance may be down at the resort, a good sign for guests who want to visit in November without experiencing significant crowds.


Let’s look at how the crowd levels stacked up each day last week on the TouringPlans.com Universal Orlando Resort Crowd Report:
