Universal's Epic Universe - News and Discussion

I also will say that the bus service to / from Epic was not impressive. I got to the stop at around 8:50 and waited until 9:15 for the bus during what I would assume would be peak morning hours. Meanwhile, three buses for IOA and US came and went while I waited. Also waited 25 minutes at park close and there not everyone fit, so many people in line had to wait another 30 minutes for the bus to come back. Definitely felt like they needed to be running more busses with such a long drive there and back.

Thank you for this update. I will be staying at Dockside in late August and definitely intend to give early admission at Epic a try. Is there any data as to when the very first bus of the day shows up at the value resorts?

During my preview day, 1st bus from Aventura showed up 1hr 25min prior to early entry.

For those that have gotten to experience Curse of the Werewolf, how intense is it? I love Guardians and can handle that spinning overall, but don’t like Men In Black’s excessive spinning at the end. Is Curse of the Werewolf more intense or less intense than Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind?

Our "pod" was swinging back and forth rather than spinning. I think Werewolf is less intense than Guardians.

The majority of the track is visible to everyone. You can watch and decide if the vehicle movement is too much for you.

Been watching wait times and it sure seems like the weekend is a better time to go which is counterintuitive. I'm thinking with the very limited single day sales the 'walkup, local' crowd is pretty much the same every day of the week. For those that have the 3-5 day packages they are likely staying longer and weekends are more likely their travel day. They may also be thinking week days are better for the Epic day because historically walk up crowds are bigger on weekends (but again, maybe not true in this case because it is capped pretty low). Anways, we are there for 7 nights. Arriving on Saturday. Had planned to do Epic on Tuesday but I think we are going to change to Sunday.
