Epic Universe Ticketing Info, Advice, & Speculation

[TheCodeMan95]

Yeah Universal wants the crowds there. I imagine almost every NBC owned news show will be airing from Epic for the first week - and they're going to want people there.

Well, time ran out for my family. We had to lock in airline tickets and travel days for vacation requests. So we just booked a trip to Switzerland and Germany instead of Epic (from the west coast). Couldn't wait any longer for the tickets/vacation we wanted (2 days at Epic plus a day each at USF and IOA). We're going to Europa-Park instead, which has always been on my list! I'll enjoy watching the videos of Epic opening days.

Feels like the 90 day mark was a lot of folks’ cutoff for waiting for additional ticket types.

I'm starting to get there too. I was planning on going this summer for my birthday, but I don't want to book a hotel without having tickets and there's no point in visiting parks I've quite literally spent a year and a half of my life in. I got so many other places I want to visit.

There are other things to consider like changes in our economy, that may impact vacation budgets. Waiting too long is even more foolish when inflation is still fairly hot.

Yes, but they also don't want every video and picture to show the walkways slammed full of people. "look how crowded that is" can be a deterrent for people booking trips. I think I'd say they have a target capacity for opening week they want to hit that is well below capacity.

A "controlled" chaos, so to speak.
