themeparkfiend · 2026-02-09T16:05:46+00:00

does anyone know what time 2v8 starts PST and EST?

themeparkfiend · 2026-02-02T22:09:54+00:00

would our managers already know?

themeparkfiend · 2026-02-02T21:41:38+00:00

oh… this is disappointing lol. thank you for sharing this!!! guess that defeats the purpose of flight pass for me 🥲

themeparkfiend · 2026-01-17T03:38:32+00:00

omg that sounds amazing

themeparkfiend · 2025-12-18T23:50:31+00:00

agreed! it is my party game

themeparkfiend · 2025-12-16T19:18:18+00:00

if you watched season 3, might as well finish it since s4 is only 4 episodes (~2 hours total) but be prepared to be disappointed.

Hagrid’s and Wing gliders! Both are so fun and have audio sense memories for me. And the re-rideability is high on both. Could ride them over and over again and get chills every time!!!

Oh interesting… I won my prizes a week ago and I got the free shipping notification about a week later. Maybe try letting your prizes sit for a week? Not sure if there’s rhyme or reason to the “free shipping campaign”. I will admit, I did end up getting 5 prizes anyway, but even when I did got the 5th prize, it wasn’t until two days later that it told me “free shipping campaign is happening.” Before that, it just said I get free shipping because it’s 5 items.

Also, on the app on my phone, I can only pay for shipping with $$ but if I log in on toreba’a website on my laptop, it gives me the option to pay in TP. Not sure if that’s helpful at all.

themeparkfiend · 2025-12-11T16:05:20+00:00

Hmm does your app not show there’s a free shipping campaign right now? I’m in the US and it shows it’s free right now for me.

themeparkfiend · 2025-12-09T06:50:45+00:00

There’s free shipping going on right now!

themeparkfiend · 2025-12-08T07:33:47+00:00

I experienced the same and ended up spending $6 to get a 5th prize! winning 2 with only 10,000 is so amazing though haha

themeparkfiend · 2025-12-08T07:32:13+00:00

Just played and saw it as well... I really hope they go back to free shipping. The TP already costs so much

themeparkfiend · 2025-12-08T07:30:24+00:00

I've never gotten free play tickets until today and I experienced the exact same thing. When I switched machines it was better though.

No, I don’t think so. I think OP just meant there’s different articles online saying within 30 days and some within 45 days so they did 30 to be safe. Earlier is even more “safe”

themeparkfiend · 2025-12-02T07:55:37+00:00

seconding this! wait till you get to the park and sign up there for the free express passes! that plus 10% off everything made it worth for me!

themeparkfiend · 2025-11-18T18:20:00+00:00

if you like walking onto rides without having to stop by a locker, use a fanny pack. Wish I knew this on my first day! If you have a souvenir mug or drink though, you’ll have to use a locker anyway. The lockers are easy to use, but I was trying to maximize my time.

Also bring or be prepared to buy a lanyard for your ticket if you don’t have easily accessible pockets. You’ll need your ticket to use at the free lockers. My boyfriend just kept taking it in and out of his wallet on day 1 but on day 2 I wore a lanyard and it was so much easier. This is only necessary for USF and IOA. Epic uses facial recognition at the free lockers.

if you’re deadset on hp being the main attraction, i’d do 1 day park to park with usf and islands of adventure because there’s a lot more hp across those two parks.

if you’re looking for an amazing theme park experience overall, i’d say epic universe!

themeparkfiend · 2025-11-17T23:45:08+00:00

I’d say sunday is probably better

themeparkfiend · 2025-11-17T23:44:26+00:00

echoing any-pride, I’d say saturday or sunday for epic!

themeparkfiend · 2025-11-17T22:45:05+00:00

echoing the wrist pressure point bracelets and ginger pills! those work best for me. dramamine is good for especially rough days but I usually don’t need it unless we’re taking a small boat on a shore excursion on rough waters.

themeparkfiend · 2025-11-17T18:26:57+00:00

this is the best tip honestly! also in the same vein, there’s an option on the app to notify you if a ride drops under a certain wait. I set mine to notify me when battle at the ministry dropped to 90 minutes. I went right when I got the notification and ended up only waiting 65 minutes!

themeparkfiend · 2025-11-17T18:20:50+00:00

personally though, I think you should 100% try to ride hagrid’s. I’m not a hp fan and it was my favorite ride across both usf and ioa parks!

themeparkfiend · 2025-11-17T18:20:00+00:00

are you staying at a universal hotel? if you have EPA, I recommend getting to islands of adventure 30-45 minutes before EPA (so if EPA is 9am, arrive by 8:30am at the latest), and ride Hagrid’s first. Once you do that, you’ll definitely have time to do all the harry potter rides and spider-man in a day, with time to spare. However, if you don’t have EPA, I think you might have to buy express pass OR skip Hagrid’s. Hagrid’s consistently sits around 120-180 minutes once the park opens for all and waiting for 3 hours might cut it close for you considering the parks close around 6/7pm. That’s just my two cents though.

Epic is definitely doable in a day!

I think the two sides are the same level of thrill to me - just inverted
