@kbrewFL @DynamicThrills Hope you arrive at the park before 7 am then. According to the wait times I have for today, Donkey Kong Mine Cart Madness was a 200 minutes wait at 8:15, with the line not dropping under 140 minutes after. Same for Mario Kart.

@DynamicThrills @kbrewFL Correction, thought you were going to Universal Studios Japan today.

You'll be fine at Parque Espana with the four credits. Pyrenees is a blast and don't miss the dark rides up the hill.

My point remains about Universal Studios Japan: hope you have Universal Express arranged.

@cupcake_coaster From working at parks and other industries, yes, I can see some parks on purpose going the low capacity route to sell express or some line cutting tickets. If not on purpose, incompetence will also lead to the same result.

@cupcake_coaster @A_Coaster_Story @klaas_vaag It is how WDW operates and they push guests toward paying for Genie +. In addition, they have started massively overposting on wait times to get riders to buy Genie +, such as a case where yesterday, Rise at DHS was posting 65 minutes, but in reality was a 17 minutes wait.

[Park Vault @ParkVault]

@cupcake_coaster @A_Coaster_Story @klaas_vaag Port Aventura is notorious for that. They have 3 trains for Shambhala and will run 1 or 2 on a 6 minutes dispatch interval to create a long line. Parks also play with the ratios: when you see WDW run an 80% Lightning Lane to 20% stand-by guests, they want you to buy Genie +.

@_Galaxy11_ @JimShull Crush Coaster uses the manufacturer standard restraint that are difficult if you're above 6'2-6'3. It is not a great example of accommodation.
