What time would you get to IoA tomorrow (Thursday)?
We are staying onsite at Hard Rock, had this trip booked since last July and lucked out with Hagrid's opening during our trip. We leave Friday, so tomorrow is the day for us.
Does anyone want to venture a guess as to what the average wait would be from the sign/entrance to the actual ride? That is a reaaaaaalllly long queue.
Where is this DIS team video you speak of? I'd really like to see it....
I know @TommyJK said 2-3 hours, but I would imagine it would be much longer than that. As an 3 hour wait can take just the whole queue area for FoP and queues at USF/IoA tend to be better/longer than Disney's. Perhaps, 2-3 hours from entrance/gate to the actual ride entrance (more leaning towards minimum of 3 hours), but I'm assuming you meant including the wait time from gate/entrance to getting onto the actual ride? I would state minimum 6-8 due, including my minimum estimate of 3 hours for gate to ride entrance and estimating minimum 3-5 queue itself (as I've heard reports of TMs waiting for 3 hours, as well as up to 5 and I do not know if that includes inside the queue itself, or being outside of the entrance, as for all I know there could have been even longer waits that I haven't heard of).
That's a very rough estimate based off many different experiences of my own (with general past queues) and from experiences I've read about Hagrid's coaster.
After seeing this, the separated line part doesn't make sense to me.
They are saying the motorcycle is bigger.
Edit: Weather forecast doesn't look good for the next few days either, and since it's an outdoor coaster it's likely to not be running for long stretches. So that is going to put a damper (pun-intended) on throughput for sure.
How do I read postings that have been blurred out?
Yeah, it's definitely going to make it even more unpredictable and longer.
All you need to do is click on the blurred post and it should appear. It done to protect others who do not want to be spoiled.
Last i heard the parking garage opens at 6:30, I'm assuming earlier tomorrow but not sure about 3Will the parking garage be open for those going at 3 am?
Frankly, if a person doesn't want to see spoilers. they should not click on a thread titled
Hagrid's Coaster Soft Openings Updates / Reviews.
The garage opened at 5:30, the park st 6am. We are being held before the entrance to hogsmead
The Universal Ap says Hagrid’s opens at 9:00 (which is now). I think I would be pretty unhappy if that is accurate with the park opening at 6:00. Gringotts was only 30 min.
