So do your feet dangle? For some reason I thought the cars were enclosed?
Take a chill Felipe, did you expect me to sit down and shut up when you called me arrogant? Stop with the attacks man. All I was saying is that all the preview people seem to say the same exact thing..1 person out of the group. I don't understand why you have to keep holding on to this arguement.
Anyway.....Now that the ride has been officially ridden, maybe they will have a heart and open it to employees. Kinda unfair to let the famous people ride and not the actual employees? No?
Looks like it's open-air. It's almost literally a flying bench, without a place to store your valuables. It's just you, the OTSRs, and the people sitting next to you.
As much as I appreciate people's desire to want a perfect product, the same people also need to see reality. All of those wishful thinkers assumed that Universal would do something about the hideous show building, that you could actually go up in the castle courtyard, that you could just walk through the castle at your own leisure, ... I even thought that the greenhouses would be enclosed (because it's ridiculous that they're open), but that didn't happen either.
Logic will tell you that having separate show for every person that wants a wand is a nightmare. And you thought that the line for Pteranadon Flyers was bad! By doing it this way, it becomes an attraction as well as a gift shop (which technically adds a new attraction to the land). If this thing is as good as people say it is, then watching the show should be a lot of fun, too.

This is almost an example of how authenticity is going to make a lot of people a little upset. The shops are small and quaint to make it more authentic. You probably can't buy a lot of common theme park food (Coke/Sprite/..., bottled water, popsicles, popcorn, ...) because it's not authentic. Ideally, there would be several wand shops to handle the crowds (in order to have each person go through the experience), but that would take up a lot of space and probably look tacky in the process. Not authentic.
Imagine how happy all of those meal deal / refillable souvenir cup customers will be when they can't get standard things in this brand new land. It may very well be that you can't even refill your premium beverage cups at all here. I'm sure that will go over well with your average paying customer! The lines at the Fire Eaters Grill and The Watering Hole are going to be ridiculous now because of this new (hopefully short-lived) policy.
