When planning an unforgettable Orlando getaway in 2026, combining Walt Disney World and Universal Orlando Resort in one itinerary offers unmatched magic and thrills. A combo holiday is ideal for families, couples, and groups who want both the enchantment of Disney and the high-octane excitement of Universal—without the hassle of planning separate trips.

With this 10 nights Disney and 4 Nights Universal package from Charter Travel, you get everything in one seamless bundle—return flights, accommodation at Disney and Universal properties, Disney 14-Day Magic Tickets, Universal 4‑Park Explorer Tickets (including the brand-new Epic Universe), free Disney Quick‑Service Meals, Memory Maker, airport transfers, and more. Our packages are ABTA and ATOL protected, meaning you can book with confidence. You also benefit from expert planning assistance, flexible payment options, and access to airline deals from carriers like Virgin Atlantic, British Airways, and Aer Lingus.

Stay, Play, Save: The Disney Resort Advantage

Beginning your holiday at Disney’s All‑Star Sports Resort delivers great value, immersive theming, and excellent resort benefits. Families enjoy oversized, sports‑themed décor, multiple pools, and complimentary Disney bus transportation to all parks. Being a Disney resort guest also entitles you to Early Theme Park Entry, allowing you to start your day before the general public. Meanwhile, the Disney Quick‑Service Dining Plan, worth around £399 per person, is included—redeemable at over 100 locations across the parks and resorts.

Your 14‑Day Magic Ticket creates ultimate flexibility. You can hop from Magic Kingdom to EPCOT, Animal Kingdom, Hollywood Studios, and even both Disney water parks like Typhoon Lagoon and Blizzard Beach, every day. The included Memory Maker ensures that character moments and ride photos are captured and downloadable—perfect for treasured memories.

Switch to Universal: Where Thrills Meet Immersion

After ten nights with Disney magic, the journey continues at Universal’s Cabana Bay Beach Resort. This retro‑styled hotel offers family‑friendly comfort, two swimming pools, a lazy river, bowling, and convenient access to the parks via walking paths or shuttle. Guests also enjoy Early Park Admission to select attractions—including The Wizarding World of Harry Potter™ areas.

Your Universal 4‑Park Explorer Ticket (2026) includes access to Universal Studios Florida, Islands of Adventure, Volcano Bay water park, and the highly anticipated Epic Universe, which opened May 22, 2025. Epic Universe is a sprawling, 750‑acre park that redefines immersion with five unique lands: Celestial Park, Super Nintendo World, The Wizarding World – Ministry of Magic, How to Train Your Dragon – Isle of Berk, and Dark Universe.

At the heart of Epic Universe, Celestial Park serves as a stunning hub with interactive gardens, fountains, a dazzling Stardust Racers dual‑track roller coaster, and ambient dining options. Super Nintendo World dazzles with Mario Kart: Bowser’s Challenge and Mine‑Cart Madness, while Dark Universe thrills visitors with classic monster‑themed rides and eerie atmospheres.

Pro Tips and Insider Advantages

Visiting Epic Universe early? Many recommend spending at least 2 full days to explore. With opening season crowds expected to be high, taking advantage of Early Park Admission and optional Express Passes can help reduce wait times and maximise your experience. Staying at on-site hotels like Stella Nova, Helios Grand, or others also gives you the convenience of walking directly to Epic Universe and avoiding long transportation lines.

That’s exactly what our Disney and Universal split stay package for Easter 2026 offers – and trust us, your family will thank you for it.

Why Easter 2026 Is the Perfect Time to Go

Easter school holidays offer a golden window to travel — the weather in Florida is warm but not too humid, the parks are full of seasonal surprises (think: Easter egg hunts and themed treats), and it’s a great time to make the most of the school term breaks. With plenty of time to explore, a 2-week trip means you can slow down and soak it all in — without rushing through rides or skipping your must-do list.

7 Nights at Disney’s Pop Century Resort

Start your adventure with 7 nights at Disney’s Pop Century Resort, a family favourite known for its playful retro theming and great value. You’ll be staying right on Walt Disney World property with easy access to the parks thanks to the Disney Skyliner, which whisks you straight to EPCOT and Hollywood Studios in minutes.

Your included tickets grant you entry to all four Disney parks:

  • Magic Kingdom: Iconic rides like Space Mountain, Cinderella Castle, and nightly fireworks

  • EPCOT: Guardians of the Galaxy coaster, World Showcase festivals, and global cuisine

  • Hollywood Studios: Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge, Toy Story Land, and thrilling shows

  • Animal Kingdom: Avatar Flight of Passage, real animals on safari, and lush jungle trails

You’ll also have time to enjoy Disney Springs for shopping, dining, and live music, and even cool off at one of Disney’s two epic water parks if open.

Week Two: 7 Nights at Universal’s Endless Summer Resort

After a week of Disney magic, shift gears and dive into the action-packed world of Universal Orlando Resort. For week two, you’ll stay at Universal’s Endless Summer Resort – Surfside or Dockside Inn & Suites, offering affordable family suites, a relaxed vibe, and free shuttles to the parks.

Included park access gets you into all three Universal parks:

  • Universal Studios Florida: Harry Potter – Diagon Alley™, Minions, and Hollywood-style action

  • Islands of Adventure: Jurassic World VelociCoaster, Hogsmeade™, and Marvel favourites

  • Volcano Bay: Florida’s best water park with thrilling slides and lazy rivers

And don’t forget Universal CityWalk – a fun-filled district with themed restaurants, souvenir shops, and live entertainment, right on your doorstep.

Why a Split Stay at Universal Helios Grand Hotel and Disney Animal Kingdom Lodge

 Why a Split Stay at Universal and Disney is the Smartest Way to Do Orlando

Planning a holiday to Orlando and can’t decide whether to stay at Universal or Disney? Here’s the good news — you don’t have to choose. The smartest way to get the best of both worlds is by booking a split stay. With Charter Travel’s all-in-one package holidays, you can enjoy both Universal Orlando Resort and Walt Disney World in one smooth, exciting, stress-free trip.

Charter Travel offers customisable holiday packages that include flights, theme park tickets, hotel stays at both Universal and Disney resorts, and optional car hire. It’s the ultimate way to do Orlando — with everything sorted for you by experts.

Here's why a Split Stay at Universal Helios Grand Hotel and Disney Animal Kingdom Lodge is the best choice! 

Start Your Holiday with Thrills at Universal Orlando

Your split stay begins with a few nights at the stylish and modern Universal Helios Grand Hotel. This resort is just minutes away from Universal Studios Florida, Islands of Adventure, and Volcano Bay.

The Helios Grand Hotel offers more than just convenience. Expect sleek rooms, a rooftop pool with city views, fantastic restaurants, and easy shuttle access to the parks. It’s a vibrant, energetic way to kick off your Orlando adventure.

Since Universal park tickets are included in your Charter Travel package, there’s no need to worry about extra costs or confusing add-ons. You’ll be able to focus on what really matters — soaking up every second of theme park fun.

Then Slow the Pace at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge

After a few days of rollercoasters and movie-themed excitement, it’s time to change gears and head to the peaceful savanna-inspired Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge. This breathtaking resort immerses you in African wildlife, culture, and design. Imagine waking up to the sight of giraffes, zebras, and exotic birds grazing just outside your balcony.

This part of your stay is all about relaxation and discovery. Dine at world-class restaurants like Boma – Flavors of Africa or Jiko – The Cooking Place, lounge by the pool, or explore the resort’s cultural exhibits and nightly storytelling. With Walt Disney World park tickets also included, you’re free to spend your days exploring Magic Kingdom, EPCOT, Hollywood Studios, and Animal Kingdom.

Thanks to Disney’s efficient transport system, getting around is easy — and with Charter Travel managing your transitions between resorts, it’s all hassle-free.

Why Booking with Charter Travel Makes It Easy

Organising a holiday like this on your own can be overwhelming — flights, hotels, tickets, transfers, insurance — the list goes on. That’s where Charter Travel comes in. Their experienced team handles every detail for you. They can tailor your package to suit your dates, budget, and preferences, whether you want to add car hire, request direct flights, or stay longer at one resort than the other.

And because Charter Travel holidays are ATOL and ABTA protected, you can book with complete confidence.

The Best of Both Worlds in One Trip

When you book a split stay with Charter Travel, you get the thrill of Universal and the magic of Disney in one unforgettable holiday. No compromises, no stress — just the ultimate Orlando adventure.

So if you’ve ever dreamed of sipping Butterbeer in Diagon Alley one day and spotting giraffes from your balcony the next, now’s the time to make it happen.
