@Attractions confirmed that there is a pouch to store stuff on the vehicle but it is small.

It's more of a compartment. It's big enough to fit a wallet, camera, sunglasses and maybe a folded up hat. It's at the small of your back when you sit in the ride vehicle. They would have to totally redesign the seats to get rid of the crap holders.

Does anyone know if there are lockers provided specifically for Forbidden Journey? If so where are they? I know there are some by the entrance, but I think those might be for Dragon Challenge? Unless I'm mistaken.

Speckes says..."I have done FJ!!!!... you will not be disappointing with the plot and characters presented, many came closer than I had ever expected!!! Technology appeared on first impression...a refinement on techniques used on many different rides not so much a jump to a new generation of techniques...or does that more suggest my expectations were a little unrealistic..."

There are lockers specifically for Forbidden Journey. When you enter the castle, they are immediately on your right and there are plenty to go around. They are located between the entrance and the gift shop so when you exit the ride into the shop, you can pass through and pick up your stuff as well. Very handy.

I'm a bit frustrated that the one day I don't go to the preview is the day the ride seems to be doing well. :) I was simply too tired from the last couple days to give it a third shot this morning. But soon enough. At least I still have something to look forward to!

As for a ride video... even if Attractions does post one, I won't be watching it yet! I prefer to remain as spoiler-free as possible for now. Of course, after I ride, I'm sure I'll watch any video I can find repeatedly. ;) It's one of those situations where I hate to record rides and put them out there because I don't like spoiling it for other people. But at the same time I know that people who have ridden it want to be able to relive it whenever they can.

Anyway, I may be able to make it in again tomorrow morning if something pans out for me, so I hope to ride then. If not, soon enough. The grand opening draws nearer by the day.

There are lockers somewhere towards the beginning of the queue for the ride we just haven't seen pictures of them yet.

Forbidden journey isn't working. Broke down while in the defense against the dark arts room. Hopefully we don't have to wait long.

Great stuff so far on here & what attractions got from you. Glad I was able to talk with you for a bit & random OT I forgot you were from IL. Loved seeing the video of Show Stoppin on your blog I really miss that show since SFGA was my home turf until I moved here two yrs. ago. Brings back such great memories even if the park was nowhere near Disney quality still had many great times including some working there.

I might be a bit overanylitic in saying this, but the Three Broomsticks logo as pictured here seems a bit like the Deathly Hallows. Just something cool I wanted to point our. (Credit for the picture goes to insidethemagic)

For those who are curious, I was told by a TM who works in one of the shops inside the WWoHP that the capacity of the entire area is about 6,000 guests. I assume that is not just Hogsmeade, but includes all of the attraction queues as well.

Anyone notice when Universal opens a new ride it breaks down a lot for a while/takes a long time to get it working right? Like Jaws, Forbidden Journey, HRRR, Seuss Trolley, etc

Well it's a new ride. I would expect nothing less. To have a ride that doesn't break down seems too good to be true and I would be weary about riding it.

From what I've read, the package holders have been kicked out of the castle and FJ won't be opening again for the package holders today.

At least it got to run for a good 2 hours today.
