What is the most current wait time for new HP rides?

[DisneyPotterHead]

I'm going in November - does anyone think the wait times will be shorter since it's a few months after opening date?

I suspect if its anywhere near "jersey week"... which i believe is first or second week of november... you might still have wait issues.

R you kidding him...when FJ opened,we waiting a year and then went in late September. If you weren't in line at rope drop, you were waiting at least an hour. This November...really, unless you are staying on site and get in early (are they allowing that again for people staying in their resorts?) plan to wait at least an hour...there have been mixed reviews. I will take my girls in September 2015, to let the crowds die down.

I expected to wait at least an hour. Was just hoping the wait wouldn't be 4,5 hours +...

jersey week is the unofficial week in november when all the teachers of new jersey have a conference and the kids have off from school . i want to say the conference is the 6-7 so they will take that week and veterans day off

Gringotts still isn't operating at 100% capacity, so lines have still been forming... I don;t think lines to get into the land are bad or even existing anymore..

That also does not mean crowds have died down... They haven't... Universal just earned how to better accommodate guests and guest control... And other than the first few days, their plan has worked...

Now, if they can just get Gringotts to 100% capacity, then all would be even better...

I've been keeping an eye on all of the wait times at both parks as we arrive there next week. we've been to Universal several times, but I've never noticed all around wait times like I'm still seeing and like I said, we've gone the same time for the past 3 years. I was actually so nervous about getting to do anything in the parks that I actually booked a 1 night stay at Royal Pacific (even though we have other accommodations) just so we could get the express passes included and the early entry to WWoHP. we dont do waits well, and all of the good stuff (even non-HP stuff) has been showing daily waits of 100 mins for a while.

Universal has it down pat, overprice the regular express pass, making it cheaper to book a hotel room and get the perk of free express passes, rather than just buying express passes.

I just got the android app for there (going next month) I wanted to see the wait times but nowhere on the app do I see them... even with the location activated on my phone. Do u have to actually be in the Orlando area for it to show ride times?

I would assume the official universal app would show wait times if you're in the park, like the seaworld app. I check an unofficial universal wait time app which I have found to be very accurate in the past
