Has the ride been operating at night yet?

I'm very curious if at least for the outside potion all the floodlights on the RV will be on.

I think it would look that much more realistic and really set the tone of a venturing truck in the dark.

Not to mention the hype it would build of seeing headlights cross the vegetation around you as you wait in line outside.

Reminds me of the cool vibe the ET jeeps give off.

Obviously the inside cannot use these lights due to screen on screens on screens, but it would be really cool for the outside i think

Fourth at Universal seems in line with most of the other reviews. Third or fourth seems to be the most common ranking, with a few in at 2 and 5. I think we had a couple of 1's also.

Any word on soft openings today? Also, can you use a guest assistance pass?

Yeah on the softs but I don't believe so on the GAP pass at the moment. Best to ask an attendant if any accommodation can be made.

What does one usually receive with a GA pass?

You take the pass to the ride attendant at the entrance of the ride. If the wait is under 30 mins they usually let you enter through the express lane. If its over 30 mins they give you a return time which is similar to the current wait for that attraction.
