General Discussion - Hagrid's Magical Creature Motorbike Adventure

[SkiBum]

I did the single rider line once last November and then did full stand-by a little later. The stand-by was actually quicker. The lesson I did learn was to not do single rider if the line was at or outside the door leading into the old castle. If that line was further down the stairs, it would probably be a 25-30 minute wait. From the door, it took close to an hour.

Yeah, we did single rider once for this in 2023. Never did it again because it truly made zero difference lol

The express line for this line will be bonkers. Oof. Not looking forward to that s***show

This recent conversation is making me think it’ll make no difference that I’ll be a single rider for Epic Universe, if it’s even available lol

 

[Parkscope Joe]

This ride will never get Express lol. Even if they do, it’ll be a ONE time use a day for this ride only.
Has that new expanded maintenance bay opened up yet?

Never say never.

Currently in line and single rider seems to be back? Also I haven’t ridden for a few months but I thought the preshow was in permanent screensaver mode. Today they’re running the full preshow video on a loop but still having the queue move through that room normally (no having to stop and watch the whole thing).

Edit - they’re not separating even and odd numbered parties before loading

Where did you enter? From the main entrance or further in?

It seemed to be in flux because it was actually back maybe a week or two ago (maybe for a day, who knows) but not accessible from the entrance like before. I found out when entering the line with everyone else and only when we got close to the castle was there an attendant in front of a new single rider line entrance.

I did standby, but the singles entrance was further in, just before getting to the switchbacks of doom past Hagrid’s hut.

Sounds like this may be the norm then moving forward.
