The Studios were very manageable today on T-day

[Orangeandwild]

I wanted those who will be traveling to USF over future T-day weekends to know that the Studios were very manageable today, most things we did not even use our Express Passes on as the crowds were low. Most of the wait times were at 25 minutes or less everytime I looked at the time boards.

Another way I gauge the crowds is the availability of benches when we want to sit down and we found plenty of seating areas and many in the shade.

When we left around 4pm RRR had a 20 min wait which we thought very low.

We did not go to IOA today so I have no info on that for those interested

Happy Thanksgiving fellow Universal park fans!!!!

IOA was busier than USF, of course. Wait times averaged 30-45 mins for most rides; 75 for Forbidden Journey.

That's busier than normal for T-Day, but is still considered Moderate. Tomorrow/Sat will be busy. As in 9a-11p (http://www.universalorlando.com/Resort_Information/theme_park_hours.aspx) busy.

I just walked around USF in the afternoon and saw one show on Thanksgiving Day. Went over to IOA around 5pm and did FJ 3 times in the single riders line within 20 minutes. Posted wait was 90 when I went in, 30 when I came out. Didn't seem too bad of a day.

On Thanksgiving day, we got into IOA around 2pm and it wasn't bad at all. Hulk stated 15 min., but was really a walk on, as was Storm accelerator. Spiderman was 30 min and so was Pteranadon Flyers. We arrived into WWOHP around 5 pm and honestly expected more people, but to me it seemed less than a normal crowd that you would probably see on a Friday. FJ was listed as 90, but did single rider. Hippogriff was listed at 40 first, but when we got out of FJ it was 20 min. Only waited like 10-15 min. Did that twice. 3 Broomsticks had no wait and each time I peaked into Hogs Head pub while eating, there were around 2-3 people in line or none. When we walked into IOA, dh and I were both surprised it wasn't packed like how we expected. We assumed it was probably more crowded in the earlier hours. We did see a large crowd leaving IOA when we got there.
