Just curious
How are the wait times ?

It is a virtual queue ride. You have to make a reservation for it.

I wonder how quickly the time slots are getting gobbled up? Are guests able to book return times using the app, like can I reserve times from my hotel room or at least see the availability?

 

[FireflyTrance]

Can someone explain how the virtual line works? Do you have to have park tickets connected to the app to make it work? If so how do you connect the tickets. I already purchased my tickets but can't find anyway to add them to the app.

Yes you can, we reserved from the pool at sapphire falls.

Is this working out at all? I don't like the virtual queue idea at all!!

I'm watching the Inside the Magic video that's explaining the virtual queue process. I have a really crummy Cricket smartphone that will unlikely support the Universal app. (I know for a fact, it doesn't support the MyDisney app). Not sure how this will work for those without the app access.

There are machines outside the ride too.

what is the app?

 

[Dano1182]

Can you do this in advance or only day of visit ?

I'm 99% sure you need to be within the park to reserve the day of. The app reads your location and only lets those there to reserve times

OK thanks

I was at Universal today and by 12:30 they were all out of return times. They said they would open up the standby line at 4. When I was over there around 5:15 the wait time was an hour and the park closed at 6 for Grad Bash.

 

[Rags]

Is there or will there be express pass?

We did it from the resort pool.

what is the app?

The official universal resort app.

Worked out just fine for us. We did it 6 or 7 times during soft openings.

Yes, you have to be in the park to do it or close enough like resort property. We are local and so we never make it to rope drop since sleep wins out. As a result, we haven't been able to reserve Fallon yet. We were so hoping we didn't have to actually be in the parks.

You don't have to use the app. You can use the kiosks outside of the ride as well. Get there early.

No need for it to be connected to tickets. Mine never were. And we reserved from outside the gate while waiting for the park to open.
