I don’t think the Paris aspect carries that much weight. The audience interests have shifted, and the people who care about Paris-like experiences….. are flying to Paris.

Judging from the bio's photos, the land will be impressive regardless of whether you're familiar with the material or not. I've only seen the first Fantastic Beasts film and I really have no need to see the others, but this land looks engaging despite my lack of familiarity. Theme parks are not about going and seeing IP that you are familiar with, but are rather about the place making and the pleasure of the illusion. I imagine it's not replacing people's Parisian vacations because it's not at all the same thing.

While I do believe attendance restrictions will occur the first few weeks, I doubt the recent trend in the industry will keep them for much longer than necessary. Last thing Comcast wants to report is that their entire Experience division is down when you open up a brand new park.

I thought only WDW was controlling Attendance....

It will offer Express Pass and Early Entry at opening.

If you purchase a multi day ticket (3, 4, or 5 days), you do not need to specify your one day at UEU. It just needs to fall during the interval the tickets are scheduled for.

Hi! So we think staying at the Royal Pacific, Portofino & Hard Rock will mean Express Pass for Epic?

I’d guess no. If anything, they may give Express Pass to Helios guests at some point to promote bookings there. So RPH, HRH, and Portofino would stick with Express for IOA and USF while Helios would have it for UEU, only. But that’s a guess. For most of us, it will be $$$ to get Express at UEU.

As of now, no express for Helios (for any park).

I think express for Epic will have a premium/newness tax at the moment. Doubt they need to promo booking for it for a few months. Once Epic Universe operations are streamlined and they see hotel demand soften, they can consider adding Helios to the express lineup once that capacity is up and the park running efficiently.
