Epic Universe VIP experience info

[CAPSLOCK]

Hiccup's Wing Gliders is the roller coaster, and it is included in Express.
The vast majority of people would agree it's "the good one," yes.

Wanted to update this thread that we ended up cancelling our shared VIP tour for our visit to Epic on May 30. It was easy to do via phone up to 48 hours in advance. I just couldn't stomach the high cost ($2000 for 3 people) for only 4 hours of tour time.

We used that money instead to book at an Express hotel for one night and have Express Unlimited at the other two parks for our two days visiting USF and IOA. We could have also bought the Express pass on our Epic morning as I noticed all week that they were selling them day of (that would have been $900 for 3 people) each day that week. But in the end we decided to not even do that as it was a very rainy day and I was worried it would be a bit waste of money.

In the end we were able to ride everything we wanted over the course of being at the park from 8:30 am-10 pm. We had to walk and back track a lot because different rides were closed at different points. We managed Curse of the Werewolf and Stardust during the last 30 minutes of early entry and had only 20 minute wait for Monsters at opening time. Wait times were very high for things like BatM and MarioKart at opening but went down significantly in the evening. We enjoyed both shows in afternoon when many things were down in the storm.

All in all we had a great day. I'm sure we would have enjoyed the VIP experience, but in the end I'm happy that we saved on the cost.
