The Wizarding World of Harry Potter - Hogsmeade (Orlando): Part 2

[speckles]

Yes eventually... I wonder how many local APs they would have to cater for, more than they can accommodate?

I know Disneyland in California is trying to figure that one out for their new world of color show, they have approx. 1 million AP equivalents in California. Are AP previews a thing of the past or pure tokenism where you have one that is soo limited most can not make it?

i'am so glad uni is getting these complaints. They suck, i just called and told them. i dont care if you guys say "thats not nice" because many people are confused about all this harry potter stuff.

whats there to be confused about? the park said opening june 18th. The park hasnt said "open if we feel like it". Keep on complaining. That whole "customer is always right" went out the door a long time ago. You are gonna complain yourself out of a park to visit if they deem you as hostile and a harasser if you keep telling them "they suck". I have seen it happen before and would love to see it happen again.

Just to let everyone know there seems to be people posting fake spoilers under the [HASHTAG]#potterwatch[/HASHTAG] hashtag on Twitter.

Namely people from ThemeParkReview. :bang:

Well, I think we should all step back and take a huge cleansing breath for a moment and think. It may be that subsequent days after today are handled differently, because today they had the Virgin people as well as package holders, and who knows maybe more TM previews this afternoon. I think we'll have to take it day by day, and I bet it's very possible that the hours the attraction is open will become longer and longer as the days go by. It has been quite the whirlwind morning, but let's keep our heads on here and think realistically.

The sense of entitlement is fascinating...

I just contacted WESH2 NEWS about Universal giving Orlando residents and Annual Pass Holders the cold shoulder. Hopefully this will turn up the heat.

Long-time lurker, first time poster ...

Can anyone speak to the legitimacy of @wesisrad's Twitter posts with the #potterwatch hastag? They're really spoilery, so don't read if you don't want to find out details, but sound like they could potentially be legit and are backed up by a few other posters. Then again, his Twitter also has an earlier post about how fun it would be to post fake spoilers about FJ on Twitter, so take it all with a grain of salt.

No it just makes you look silly. There is no rule that states ap and orlando residents get priority on anything. You dont know what the park has in store for its fla residents and ap holders. You my friend are an example of someone who gains the world and then gets pissed when he cant get the moon.

I think he is one of the people doing the fake spoilers. I wouldn't trust a word what he has said.

I never thought it would be soo hard to find a legit report on FJ, the motivation of people...

You are correct, it does happen. I know of a couple myself. It's called Karma.
We all make decisions, "to do what is easy or what is right". Making the correct decision comes with maturity.

Guys as much as I understand that us as annual passholders feel that we are entitled to a sneak preview just think back.

Have we gotten one for HRRR? No we haven't.

I just read the benefits at the universal orlando site for a preferred pass that I have and not once does it say early entry to preview rides. Click Here to Read

I'm sorry, but they don't owe us anything unfortunately.

That may be the case but it's stories like this that News Reporters love. Especially local news. Once reporters start calling and asking questions maybe will get a date for Annual Pass previews and then we can all breathe a sigh of relief. What we really want to know is when Annual Pass Holders can get a preview.

According to some tweets, this ride has multiple possible endings?

If that is the case, that is freaking awesome.

Nevermind, it was just some idiot posting fake tweets and encouraging people to post fake tweets, some people are truly losers.

This is one of the fake spoilers from some people who thought it would be funny to post them using the #potterwatch hashtag.
I see no evidence why I or anyone else should believe it.

once the reporters start calling is when universal will shut down and say "nothing for ap holders and orlando residents regarding wwohp...no futher comment". How old are you? You do know that this new land is not going anywhere soon? Ohhh, I get it you HAVE to be the first to see it right...then be the first to complain about how it sucked lol...I still dont get it. If you live mins away from the park why the rush? I would expect someone from traveling half way around the world to complain not someone who can see it virtually 365 days a year with their pass...

I hope you AP Holders don't get a preview for all the bitching you've done on here. I have never seen so many brats posting in my entire life.

Exactly. We don't need a preview. June 18th is right around the corner.

As mcuh as I would love an AP event, no where does it state we are garunteed an event for every single ride opening or show for that matter. I hate to say it but all of the consant complaining may very well be the reason we either A. Do not get an AP event for WWOHP or B. Cuase a huge increase in the price of AP's and renewals. Remember people with more perks come higher cost.

Regardless if any of us feel as if we were slighted, the package holders paid out good money for something Universal offered to them, and as good customer relations UO is trying to make good on thier promises. Had you bought a package you would be getting the perks (even if somewhat limited). UO does not have to open to anyone before the 18th and in reality they dont even have to open then.
