King K. I do not think it would be much a quick trip.
Well, of course, the wait would be quick, lol. I meant it as driving up and down in the same day. A quick trip! happy.gif

My wait threshold for any ride is like 10 minutes, how people could wait 3 hours is amazing.
The ride's gonna be there at least until 2012

EDIT: /\ NOOOOOOO!!!!!! *bangs head on desk* why would they stop them unless a problem was found (not likely)

I agree with xmclovinx06 I might go this week depending on are rain producing storms in the tropics. Will there probably be a sign telling when the softs are or will there be

just random openings. I know nobody has exact info. I just want an opinion smile.gif

Be sure you talked to someone at Guest Services and not the Guest Contact Center. The people at the contact center are offsite and are always oblivious to things happening.

Just got back from TM previews earlier today. The ride is absolutely awesome and worth the wait. I'll post pictures in a couple minutes of the looooong line that there was at 5:15.

Edit:



More in the album Link

Ok Im done putting up with universals crap. First lying about earlier now not even letting people in line. I love how they treat their passholders an their rude employees basically telling u don't stand arouund when they will prolly just reopen after u leave. I hope the coaster vallies again with ppl on it an they learn their lesson and make a big media embarassmrnt.

Sorry just had vent lol.

This is weird. First I hear about four weeks of soft openings, and then earlier today I hear that the Grand Opening is the 16th.

Lol, I can just imagine Uni Execs when the lift banner fell.."Screw this s***, we're opening tomorrow."


Exactly what I thought... f&*K safety, this ride will open tomorrow!!!
