Crowd Levels Down?

This always grinds my gears, but Universal itself pretends it has four parks because it has been calling Volcano Bay a "theme park" since the day it opened

I think it's the best water park in Orlando, by a fair margin. But calling it the 3rd/4th theme park is quite a stretch.

I agree i dont consider a water park a theme park, I love theme parks but not a big fan of water parks although id check this out just to see the big volcano!

No one in their right mind wants to be in C. Florida in the summer and foreign travel to the US is down.

I already took two trips to Epic. Lines were long because the attractions kept closing/delaying due to technical and weather issues. They were handing out recovery EP to everyone who was ushered from an attraction, and this added more people to the EP lines. It was common to wait 45 minutes in some express lines. I can't imagine what the wait times for the standby lines were.

Despite all that, I still wouldn't discourage anyone from going to Epic. It's a beautiful park and we are returning next month. I just don't think it's an answer for the folks who are currently upset with Disney's pricing. If they can't afford Disney, they won't be able to afford Epic either.

Epic is being put in to the normal bucket of parks later this year for Europe tickets at least from what I saw. Getting stand alone I can't see it making sense but once its dropped in to their normal multi-day ticket it might not be so bad?
