HKDL, Ocean Park & Universal Singapore Tips?
westical replied to westical's topic in Theme Park Discussion
Thanks y'all, much appreciated! Rather than a quote-athon I'll just summarise by park - HKDL I was likely always going to spend two days there no matter what the crowds were like, but CNY cements that. I noticed last year they had two designated days where you needed specific tickets for entry, so I'm keeping an eye on their press room. I used Photo Pass at WDW, mainly for the unlimited ride photos, so I'll take a look. Ocean Park Consensus seems to be rides first so I'll stick to that plan given the park will more than likely be very busy. I've been to the San Diego & Orlando SeaWorlds (+ plus GC of course) so missing the dolphin show may not be the end of the world. Temperatures are currently in the teens, so won't be any need to cool off (might keep the water ride queues down at least...) Universal Sounds like I won't need an Express Pass which is good. I'll also be taking advantage of Single Rider Lines which USS seems to have a few of (HKDL seems to have a few too). Going near the end of the wet season, from what I've read they still keep outdoor rides open unless there's a thunderstorm, so hopefully Battlestar Galactica will be operating. Other Raffles Hotel - is a premade Singapore Sling really worth $36?? -
Finally expanding my horizons outside of Anaheim and Orlando with a trip to Hong Kong and Singapore next month. Hong Kong Disneyland (2 days), Ocean Park (1 day) and Universal Studios Singapore (1 day) are definitely on the list. (Un)fortunately timed my Hong Kong trip with Chinese New Year, so I expect it to be busy. Avoiding weekends for all parks to help as much as I can. So with that all in mind, any tips for a seasoned theme park traveller? HKDL has regular Fastpass but for only 2 rides, so I'll use that as much as I can. Having two days there plus extended hours should make up for the crowds. Don't know much about Ocean Park to be honest. Universal has Express passes starting at $30 but I'm not sure they're needed? Thanks y'all.

What can Movie World do to reduce the strain?
westical replied to New display name's topic in Theme Park Discussion
Is it the first movie that MW has shown since Shrek that was specifically made for 4D? I can only seem to remember clip shows. -
They couldn't really let you skip the preshow on Batman or LTRR.

Because it's still more foot traffic than not leading guests through it. Not that hard to go back to the shop after returning to your locker right next door. -

westical replied to New display name's topic in Theme Park Discussion
AlexB pretty much nailed it. Watching them slowly load the Driving School a few weeks ago was excruciating, knowing it effectively replaced LTRR which sucked up the crowd, the whole family could go on, and had aircon. -
Thank you.

As an aside, how difficult is it to add the second train to Superman? -

My head can barely stand 1 ride on AA, let alone 17. -

Yeah they look really bad from 100 metres away. Can already tell they'll be uncomfortable. ... -
Is the Fast Track sign normally there?

I think the parks would have stay open at night for that to work -
That reminds me, for the UTT they didn't even check that I had a ticket to the FN event. Lucky it was included in my pass anyway.

Does Sea World have a spare orange train they can have? -
I don't think it's us Parkzers you need to tell to slow down.
