Episode Details

Is a Disney vacation really more expensive than Universal? We’re putting it to the test!

In this episode of Chaos & Carry-Ons, we’re pricing out a December vacation for two adults at both Walt Disney World and Universal Orlando. We compare a mid-range hotel, park tickets, and the extras you need to make the most of your park days—including Disney’s Lightning Lane and Universal’s Express Pass.

We break down the numbers, compare what you’re actually getting for your money, and decide which vacation gives you the better value.

So, which one costs more? Which one gives you more for your money? And is the extra cost of the skip-the-line options actually worth it?
