Despicable Me: Minion Mayhem (USF)

^ And how exactly did they get you to the front of the line? Were you escorted?

Both attractions have an express line. People with the exception, almost always given during a delay while on the attraction, use the existing express line.

Ah... the omnipresent paper passes. I have enjoyed fistfuls of those at both parks... in one visit at a time. I don't really see those as express passes as much as customer service passes. I guess my point is, there are no express passes for FJ... there are customer service passes and VIP escorts onto the attraction... but that is about it.

That is correct

Why hasn't the Express line been opened? What are they waiting for?

If we're talking about Rip Ride Rockit, it's only been open for 3 years so they probably need more time to work out all the kinks. :doh:

The loading platform is too short for the attraction thus lessing the amount of PPH it can handle. I don't think we will ever see "Express" come to HRRR, but maybe something like a new version of Express like Q-Bot could be applied down the road.

Express Passes also make regular wait times much longer. That's a big aspect of why they have not been implemented yet on FJ or RockIt.

That's why I don't think it'll be implemented on DM for a while

I don't think that matters. They could merge at the top of the stairs.

I don't know if the store has been open regularly but it was open yesterday evening.
