Great report!
Did you ride Webslingers? And if so, what was your wait like?

We rode Webslingers the day before. Got called a little after 2pm. Line was an hour in the sun. Longest, hottest, most miserable line of a three day trip. So much so, we lost all interest in riding Webslingers again.

More on Webslingers. We got a BG on our last day. Went to the area when we were called. Was maybe 5pm. Line was back to the entrance of Avengers campus. I’d estimate 90-120 minutes. Was still 80+ with direct sunlight on queue. No thank you.

So strange to have the queue in direct sunlight???

What I don’t understand is why they call so many boarding groups that it gets so backed up. Seems like they should space them out more.

I really appreciate your reviews. It’s making me reconsider our plans…we had decided to get one park per day tickets for three days because it’s $220 cheaper than park hoppers. But now that they have the boarding group system it seems like we will want to hop parks so that we can ride both rides each day of our trip.
