Going Sept 27th with express. Anybody know typically long express lines can get?

It really varies, but I think that should be a good week. I have actually seen times where the express line was longer than the regular line.

Obviously we don't have hands on the official full lineup, but I'll just try to hit the mazes in a row (going solo) as I can imagine express lines getting longer later. I probably will find a maze to do standby quickly that I'll want to do a second time.

Bill and Ted really is the only other must for me.

Haha, Bill & Ted is my only must. Many nights though especially around that date and due to Stay & Scream I was able to get in as many as 4 houses before the first B&T show with no wait at all.

Ok, how do you do stay and scream? I wasn't given the option with my vacation package but I do want to add it.

You just need to be in the park prior to the event start (day admission required) there are holding areas were you wait once the park closes then they open them up and you get into the houses first.

Perfect! I'll definitely do that! How long do you have to wait in the holding areas?

Last year I went on the final Wednesday with Express. I waited about 7 minutes for TWD at park opening and FDTD around 8:30, otherwise I got into all the houses without a wait.

Perhaps the next announcement is coming?

You'd think this week, but for now this is just another generic tease.

 

[Shucker]

About the longest we have waited is 30 mins around that time (27th). But most of the time it has been less than that at least for us.

I think someone said that when they filmed the part there with Jack that Jack wasn't the only character filmed at that time. It is interesting that they are teasing the hallway again without anyone in it.

With express, shouldn't be a big problem.

The tagline reminds me a little of It Follows.

Never use express, but I heard a good measure is half of the standby time.

Over on a another board, People are getting e-mails from Finnagans saying they are cancelling reservations from 3:00 -5:00 on HHN dates. I can't see them not being used for stay&scream, or is it going to be 1st come 1st serve.

 

[s8film40]

That seems strange. 3:00 is a little early for stay & scream. Perhaps they just don't want people taking the earlier reservations because it's all they can get and then just waiting it out at their table?

Probably to ensure that people using tables there are actually eating and spending money. People making reservations for Finnegans this early are obviously HHN savvy and know its value as a place to just sit and wait. Walk-ups are more likely to be actual dinner guests and more likely to spend money.

 

[s8film40]

If they were smart they would just create a Stay & Scream dinner package with pre-paid dinner and a separate area that lets out to the park first.
