Alicia…please stop making assumptions…tell us when TMs are riding dont tell us when something is possible…cause so fsr you havent been right about a lot when "assuming dates"

I realize you’re new, but it’s not polite to bite hand that feeds you. Alicia is one of the top sources on this forum. Respect!

People are acting as if this is the first ride opening ever. Like people there’s a pattern. First we have test runs. Then we have TM previews. Then and only if operations wants to do we have soft openings. Softs aren’t required. This isn’t something new. We’ve all been through ride openings before. Universal isn’t gonna all of a sudden change years of operations and allow general public softs before TM previews just because.

Guuuuurl...

Alright, let's not focus on this too much now. Hopefully, they happen soon.

 

[Stryker]

Curious and serious question. Is it true that TM previews always occur before softs 100% of the time? I bring this up cuz I remember closely monitoring the DreamWorks Theatre in USH thread and don't recall any mentions of TM previews, then suddenly softs occurred out of nowhere. Maybe the TM previews did occur before softs, but no one mentioned it in the thread.

Really looking forward to seeing how thicc the forest gets a year from now, I envision being able to look at a side by side of bio’s aerials.

I can't believe we're now less than a week away from grand opening... I'm so excited and anxious! Even if we don't have soft openings (and I still hope we do), we're so close now!

Nice to see HMCMA on the new marketing destination map pad!

As an addition to this, it is listed in the thrills and adventure category rather than fun for all the family!

Hagrid's just isn't enough and hagrid’s magical creatures motorbike adventure is too much, am I really the first to use that abbreviation ?

 

[Ryan]

Lol yeah everybody will shorten it to Hagrid's

I'm sure it's been said before but not in a while plus it's early morning.

Where did you find this?

Haha, the map? Universal Partner Community, it's an open salesforce platform for the travel industry.

Well, that's an interesting spot for the Butterbeer cart. I guess they needed space for the media to view the ceremonies. :shrug:

I guess that you are telling us that they moved it?

 

[Parkscope Joe]

TM previews happen when they do. Usually suddenly and after a last minute call was made.

Sorry, yes! For some reason, everything I typed failed to post.

The cart has been moved next to the Hogwarts Express photo op.

I didn’t even know that was moveable! I thought it was hard lined into the ground.

 

[Alicia]

I think it needs a drain to drip into, but otherwise yea, it’s moveable.

So, whatever TMs we’re supposed to be able to ride this morning has been cancelled. I was assuming it was those that were going to be working the attraction (and didn’t yet get a chance to ride yesterday).

@Quint did you see if the trains were testing while you were in Hogsmeade?

So no surprise here but Universal is asking TM to come in early for crowd control.
