Thx for your response. So the front of the line pass is more than priority into the ride, but also into Hogsmede itself? I'm trying to determine if I'm in the first few hundred into the park, will I likely still get a return time, or will I be allowed straight away into Hogsmede?FOL will get you into the land without a return time as well as have a much longer queue. than some of the other standard FOL enterances around the park. Its not a tough sell when you see it like that.
Will do -- planning on coming April 9. I've never been there early, other than once with a VIP pass -- is traffic bad on Saturdays when parking opens?More than likely if you arrive with the opening crowd, you will not require a return ticket. This talk of the FOL pass bypassing the return ticket time is interesting and not too inconceivable. I would not put it past USH to sell more tickets that way. Shame.
Staying offsite is important. Its just difficult to get to the park early if you do not stay next to the Metro Red Line train.
Remember to visit before May 23 with the Costco Pass!
Yeah, could be ugly. I'm hoping to get there early enough to make it into Hogsmeade in the first wave -- just unsure what time that will be. At least some folks will have already done the soft open or opening two days. Want to just get in there and do some spells and drink butterbeer and hang out until it gets unbearable.April 9
