There is a way to know these things in the future, like http://www.facebook.com/WDWCelebrations :wave:

Honestly, MK might be marginally busier unless WDW announces some large event that day, which would bring many more people. I wouldn't worry about it. Either you can be there for the event and a few more people, or just choose a different park that day. It should be a great, low crowd time to...

Monty! As I said the 1st morning in front of Space Mountain, it was great to meet you in person. Some quick thoughts: -It seemed like a few people in the group were a bit unhappy we decided to wait for the Cowboy scene at first, but I knew that it was so rare it would be worth it. However I...

So I searched and didn't find anyone discussing this, but as you may know Sprint recently announced Orlando as having 4g coverage. Over the weekend I took my HTC Evo 4g to the theme parks and switched on the 4g radio. There is currently no coverage in any of the WDW parks or the Lake Buena...

I went with a few bigger friends Sunday. One is over 250 but less than 300lbs. He can ride Dragons in a regular seat with TM help to push the restraint down. He also fit on Forbidden Journey fine. Another friend, over 300lbs can only ride Dragons in the large seat, and may still need TM help...

My summary: You know how you can just go to Epcot's World Showcase and do nothing? You could just browse and sit all day and have a great time? That is how well I feel they have done this island. I would (and will) go there just to get a butterbeer and sit in Hogsmeade. I am not a big HP...

If you can fit in the standard seat (even with TM help) you are fine. Those that need the larger row seats on the coasters may not fit on FJ.

It was bad luck. I was in as a hotel guest Sunday and Forbidden Journey didn't open for us until 9:30 (but we got in at 8). It seems this is the deciding factor for the general public softs. If FJ is working and the queue is moving they let in the public, but if it isn't there is no need to...

Unacceptable to you, sure. BTW, June 18th is spring. :wave:

They can't just open the floodgates before they are ready. They are actually handling this quite well for what it's worth. In the days before twitter and the "#potterwatch" none of us would have been the wiser about what schedule they choose to soft open. They will be ready to open it for...

Right now the general public is hit or miss, but the last two days have been let in between 9-10am. However, they are letting ALL resort guests in at 8am... so if you NEED to see it in the next few weeks, staying at their hotel (even for one night) is key. Plus, you get unlimited express...

Confirmed from multiple Team Members, there will be a TM preview of Forbidden Journey this afternoon. It's getting really close. The public soft for HRRR was immediately following the TM previews. :sohappy::sohappy:

It's most likely the same "Musion" effect they already use at Disaster. Yes, a very modern peppers ghost. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XckrW82oBCs

Team Member previews are next week. Getting very close now.

You should know before you get here. That's the best I have right now.

Yeah... no disrespect meant here, but this isn't a good plan at all. It reads like you looked at the map, drew a circle and called it a touring plan. This would be the "wait in many long lines and miss HRRR all together" plan.

October is always better... but Columbus week or any HHN day will fill the parks more than usual. Plus, it's cooler in October. (And, pretending we know nothing about the existence of "soft openings" at all, there is no guarantee the WWoHP will be open during your June trip)

Yesterday (April 27) Rockit was running 4 to 5 trains all day, using the moving belt. The trains were going out almost as fast as could be and the wait (it was a slow day) never got over 15 minutes! Also, a really cool design feature was revealed, there is an intended "near miss" when the...

well apparently there isn't an easy way to share all the pics from where they are uploaded on Facebook, so here's one where you can tell where it is: http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=1185778&l=038ed5d0fd&id=1065757224 And the album, if you can get to it: http://bit.ly/cg6mSm or you can...

Not open yet for real, but you can now virtually walk through. Check out the website updates: Actual film music, walk through Hogsmeade & more. http://www.universalorlando.com/harrypotter/
