Also, there are 7 pods per turntable, 4 turntables for 28 pods, BUT there are 2 additional ADA compliant pods as well for a total of 30 pods.

The 2 extra ADA compliant pods is new information. Thanks.

not the style of the mansion but how it looks. it looks run down, it has vegetation growing wildly. looks like no one has mowed the lawn in decades. compare that to the original in Disneyland that looks very well kept and looks brand new.
My bad, you're right.Pardon, but by way of clarification, the loading area is meant to be the Room of Requirement. Why it has the Great Hall's floating candles is anyones guess. I've always supposed that it was iconography that they had no other place for.
So apparently the hourly capacity is 1800 riders. Apologies if already posted.

You bet. It was important to me as my wife is in a chair. My 'source" noted I have been the only one to report it and they confirmed it to em since they were working on the ride directly. Reported it at my page SWGalaxysEdge.com a while back.
Does this mean these two pods are independent of the turntables? Like down a different hall to a stationary cockpit? (One on the northeast and one on the southwest of the building.)
Golly, that’s over double Disneyland’s entire capacity. They are going to have a nightmare on their hands if they try to turn away 100k people who have already purchased park tickets."Bill Zanetti is an Orlando, Florida university teacher who studies theme park design, operations and management. He expects 200,000 people to line up to be the first inside the new themed land."
“The number is based on what I believe is the actual interest,” said Zanetti, who teaches theme park courses at the University of Central Florida. “That’s just how many people I expect to descend on the resort on the first opening day.”

I would have assumed they would be smart enough not to oversell tickets. It would be a nightmare if they don't control for it somehow. Yikes.Golly, that’s over double Disneyland’s entire capacity.

WRONG. Walt himself did not have several incarnations of a spooky or dilapidated haunted house. read up on your mansion history. he wanted a haunted house and he had his animators and imagineers come up with several designs but he never liked the dilapidated look and he made the call to have the outside look prestine and upkept from the get go. he did not think the public would look down on it. he didn't want a dilapidated building in his park at all. it had nothing to do with public perception.
Its not the great hall. Its the room of requirement. Hermione specifically says "All you have to do is meet me in the room of requirement"Yes the attraction begins (and ends) inside of Hogwarts Castle. IIRC you enter in through a dungeon-ish entrance in the side of the castle and then work your way up through the castle.
Now that you mention that, one of the worst things about Forbidden Journey is their vision of The Great Hall (the loading area). It's literally just some lights with a bunch of mirrors trying to make it look like infinite candles.
I'll be watching from 30 miles away...probably about where the line ends. I can't say I'll have any desire to visit the resort from about May-Dec next year.I'm sure assorted vloggers will be live-streaming the opening day of GE. I will be eagerly watching the chaos from 1200 miles away.
I wonder if the ADA pods are actually just two fixed pods completely independent of the carousels. Basically mini-Star Tours. That would be the simplest and most logical way to go about it.
Any sort of mechanism to remove and place pods on the carousel just seems odd, especially if a non divisible number of pods by 4 is the thought.
My point stands. splitting hairs there. dilapidation comes with age. guarantee you magic kingdom's mansion would not look like it is need of repair if Walt was alive when they built it.Aged and dilapidated is not the same thing.
