Universal Epic Universe - New Florida Theme Park

How is Japan so much worse, not just in the example above but in general? Do they have far higher capacities, are their ops terrible, do they just like joining long queues? Japan is high up my bucket list of countries to visit but can’t say the thought of going to their theme parks fills me with any excitement!

Japan is massively over populated essentially. Universal and the Disney parks get absolutely hammered every day.

Very different cultural approach to suffering. Half said in jest but a lot of truth to it.

Ops are generally excellent in my limited experience, capacity seemingly endless.

I can concur; another thing to note is that the park is having some growing pains at the moment. There are a few rides that need to be replaced; like Spider-Man, and when they are, are being replaced with more culturally relevant rides to Japan.

What I’m saying is is that you might have no idea what a few of the rides IP’s are, unless you’re a Japan nut, in that case you’ll have a great time. Generally there is enough stuff you will recognise though, like Jaws and Minions.

Also timed tickets are often open for Super Nintendo World, I didn’t even get in!

Watched the projection show at Battersea tonight. The projection show itself was good, massive let down on the audio though. Totally unsure as to why some were expecting them to plaster Universal UK all over it tonight when it was clearly Epic's moment.

The real laughing moment was British Airways having an A350 flight sim on hand. The throughput?

3pph.
