A Coast to Toast

Marjorie Yue flies into the new TUI airport for Florida Holidays and cruises

...Next, we checked into the chic Loews Sapphire Falls Resort at Universal Orlando, aiming for a good night's sleep ahead of an adrenaline-packed day at Universal Studios and Universal's Islands of Adventure. 

A water taxi took us from the resort straight into the heart of the action with our VIP tour guide Dani whisking us past queues for popular rides such as Jurassic World VelociCoaster and the Incredible Hulk Coaster. I confess I wimped out, saving my energy for Hagrid's Magical Creatures Motorbike Adventure. Arguably Universal's most immersive rollercoaster, with twists, turns and launch speeds of up to 50 mph, it took my breath away.
