General Discussion - Hagrid's Magical Creature Motorbike Adventure

Yea, they made the door into 2 big yellow holes that blow air. Who in there right mind builds such a large room that holds 100+ with no AC in Florida?

It probably had AC but was a low pressure zone for some reason. They'll make a permanent fix soon.

What’s funny is most of that room was made out of the Ice Dragon room with the frozen knights in the old queue back when it was Dueling Dragons—which was purposely FREEZING!

Looks to me that the ceiling in this room was raised quite a bit for the new theming, so I bet the ducts were completely re-done/reconfigured. I’m sure they’ll get it worked out soon, but glad they added the temp fix in the meantime.

Doing my typical jump around watching of the news channels this morning, there's been constant Hagrid commercials running. Marketing blitz it seems to be.

In the latest TIME magazine, Hagrid was mentioned as having an over 10 hour wait for guests. Not sure if this has been mentioned yet.. but any press is good press?

Looks like the ride still hasn't opened for the day. Wonder how long these midday openings will go on for

I don't know. Seems to me that reports of a 10-hour wait would dissuade people from coming. Maybe that's just me?

Yeah, no opening yet. No real updates either.

A long wait on opening day is pretty much a given, and I think most people would read this as circumstantial.

I think the news that the ride isn’t open at the same time as the theme park opens would dissuade people more...I know I’m not setting foot into the park until it’s operating on regular basis.

Nearing 2pm and still not open. I wonder what the problem is today?

RIP Future Universal Announcements

 

[JungleSkip]

Would be interested to know if it's even cycling

 

[Tbad556]

It looks like people are in the queue as of 15 minutes ago on Snapchat so maybe it's finally getting ready to open up? That's the only thing I've seen today at all.

 

[JungleSkip]

Finally up on the app with a 240 min wait

Down to 180 now. That's promising

 

[Brian G.]

It does seem to be getting better with downtime, even though it's still opening late. The weather this week is supposed to get real rainy again, though - so it may be short-lived.

You jinxed it. Looks like it’s been down for almost 2 hours now haha

Just got in line after waiting about 25-30 mins for the ride being down. Hopefully I get on and the ride doesn’t break down again.

A few more weeks or so.

 

[JungleSkip]

A few more weeks or so.

Basically my refrain is “As long as it’s working in early October” haha. Good luck tonight!

Is this 'potentially' your first ride?

Yup!

Posted 180 wait for regular stand-by. It’s been 30 minutes and I can see the load. About half my time so far was spent on an oven that is disguised as a stairway, though. That was miserable.
