Universal Crowd Levels

[ParentsOf4]

For those of you who are unaware, wait times for US/IOA are posted at:

We are going in a week and so I've been closely monitoring these the last few days. What has struck me is that, for the most part, lines at US/IOA during Easter week seem to have been manageable despite park closures at WDW. For example:

Posted wait times for the super headliners (e.g. Hulk, Simpsons, etc.) have been 80 minutes or less during peak times of day. Compare this to 120 minutes or longer that people have reported for WDW. Wait times for most other attractions have been about 30 minutes. For some attractions, posted wait times have often been 10 minutes.

I'm not sure if the difference in crowd levels between WDW and US/IOA is typical. However, I suspect that WDW's "4/3" offer and heavy TV ad compaign were both successful in attracting crowds that don't seem to be making their way to US/IOA.

If anyone has been to US/IOA, could you please provide a brief trip report to let us know what it's been like this week?

Thanks!

Thanks for the link....Just wish there was some historical data listed on dates and wait times.
