I heard September-ish. They still need to do a revel of the HP land, as well as probably the Helios hotel reveal. So i'm sure it'll be pretty quick after that.Has there been any rumored time frame of when they plan to announce the opening date?
But that's Uni's normal modus operandi.Operationally, it is a BRAND new park & they have to iron out kinks. If trying to do all that while the place is mobbed beyond belief shouts for issues.
They're not. Additional ticket options will be available early next year
If (hypothetically) they announce in October that they’re opening in April, that’s ~6 months’ notice for the earliest arrivals.Personally, I would say they've already kind of missed the mark by not having even more than a vague "summer of 2025" for the opening date available. I understand they are still absurdly gun-shy even 14 years removed from the opening of Hogsmeade about providing more than the absolute shortest possible timeline for people to move around already planned vacations, but I think it could end up biting them with Epic. While we have an idea of what the specific leaked packages will look like, they're not on sale yet, there's no pricing, and obviously no dates attached. If they don't announce an opening date with the opening/closing ceremonies for the Olympics, we're likely waiting until September. If we're really expecting an early summer opening, that feels a little too tight for the general public in the US and Europe to really plan and purchase those trips for the first few months en masse. I think the demand is there, but they're waiting too long on the details that matter to capitalize on it right out of the gate IMO.
They’re not trying to dissuade visits to Epic.Are they really that worried it would be so overwhelmingly the choice that they need to force a visit to USF/IOA?
Fortunately lines at F&F tend to be short.And your EU ticket doesn't become valid until you ride F&F.
EPIC pricing for an EPIC park.It seems more likely you just won’t be able to access Epic with a discount. It’s going to lead to some real sticker shock, though. Gone are the days of Universal being the deal, you’ll be looking at Disney pricing (despite being short a park) if you want more than a single day at Epic.
EPIC pricing for an EPIC park.
Out of thin air pricing
$199.99 1 day ticket
$399 2 day ticket with 2 bonus days, other 3 parks.
$549 for a 3 day EPIC ticket with 4 bonus days at 3 other parks
Park is looking fantastic.
The one thing I'm having trouble picturing being complete in less than a year is that "round a bout" in the sky between Stella/Terra resorts. Pretty crucial for that to open to prevent massive bottlenecks in the area.
