Mark Layton

Universal Orlando Writer & Theme Park Deal Watcher

Mark covers Universal Orlando news, Epic Universe planning, hotel perks, ticket details, and the little fine-print surprises that can make or break a park day. He keeps an eye on official updates and authorized ticket sources so readers can plan smarter, save where it actually makes sense, and avoid vacation math that requires a wizarding degree.
