The lines weren’t great but they were generally a bit overinflated. Went on Thursday. Haunting of Hill House and exorcist were longest at roughly an hour each, even though they were posted at 90.
Ok the rides closing early thing is good to know, since I assumed it was like Knotts and everything was just open the entire time.
typically if you're just gonna go for one night then I'd recommend the express pass because it takes all of the stress and planning out of the equation but its costly. The lines this year aren't necessarily bad but I've seen them go up to about 3 hours at the peak time of the night on Saturdays for Exorcist and Hill House. Thursdays and Sundays are the best days to go. If you want a tried and true plan to get to all the mazes if you aren't getting the front of the line pass, then I'd say arrive at the turnstiles a little before 5 and head straight to Exorcist and then Texas Chainsaw. The Curious George parking lot mazes open at 7 but they begin to let people head over to that area between 6:50-55. You have to make sure though that you're at the front of the huge group of people that will be waiting to head down there. Hill House always gets a huge line right when it opens but Pandora takes some time to fill up. Do Hill house then Pandora and then head back to the upper lot to do Halloween, then terror tram (it sucks this year btw). After that, Bride of Frankenstein is always a super short wait even if the park is packed. It typically gets below a 30 min wait until like 10ish. Then walking dead and that's all the mazes for ya. The biggest catch though is to arrive at the entrances to Hogsmeade by 6:40 to wait to go down to Hill House and being one of the first in line for it. If you arrive in the back of the huge group (it should be backed up way into the walkway) then it'll set up back. Also, ppl really fast walkthrough Hogsmeade to the mazes so keep that in mind.
Second this. One Universal team member did yell at a guest in the Hill House queue who just refused to listen… I wouldn’t normally even care, but with the county mask mandate supposedly being enforced and many of the queues being simple crossover switchbacks with no social distancing at all having smoke blown in my face on at least a half a dozen occasions was less than a welcome feeling to contend with.
The good old days.
It's amazing how much of that is completely gone now.
Weird that there was a delay on this. Orlando has had this in place since at least August. I guess I assumed that such an update would be done at the same time on both coasts.
Cedar Fair, you just click on the "ME" button on the button. It lists out all the tickets for your party and tells how many times you visited that year.
What's hilarious is the failed Yahoo knockoff Disney purchased in the late 90s, go.com, is still the base URL for so many of Disney's services.
