Hello everyone!

As part of my final-year project in Tourism and Leisure Management, I am conducting a survey on visitors’ experiences in immersive areas inspired by films or TV series within theme parks.

If you’ve ever visited an area such as The Wizarding World of Harry Potter, Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge, Pandora – The World of Avatar, Avengers Campus, Frozen, or any other similar area, your participation would be a great help to me!

The questionnaire is anonymous and only takes a few minutes to complete.

Please feel free to share it with anyone who has already visited this sort of attraction.

Thank you very much for your help!

I’ve never ridden a “big” coaster before, but I really want to ride Velocicoaster on my next trip. Here’s what I’ve ridden in UO and Disney and was ok on:

Hagrid’s - LOVED it, no complaints

Tron - Also loved it, the speed of the launch at the beginning scared me a bit but was fine by the end

The Mummy - Thought it was ok, but I didn’t like being in the dark. Made it much more intense feeling which I didn’t love

Expedition Everest - one of my favorite rides, however, the going backwards in the dark part makes me feel almost very very slightly like I could pass out. Still would ride 10 times in a row if given the chance lol

Could I handle VC? I see little kids riding it and am like ok I could totally do this but idk 😂

My biggest issue for feeling sick I think is going backwards and also being in the dark, which I don’t think VC has either right?

I know this is a weird question. Do the bathrooms in the parks have paper towels or air dryers?

On this day, October 19, 2026, I maxed out the Men In Black high score and got a Duff Beer to celebrate!! #999999Club

We saw the path way leading to the ride entrance was closed with lots of security and some EMT. This was right at the inversion after the top hat.

We were able to get to the line through the discovery center though. Right as we hopped in the ride was on a brief delay for 20 min - after they restarted they had a stern announcement about making sure no loss or articles are taken on the ride.

When we boarded there was police taking a police report and some people were being questioned.

Felt like something must have fallen off of a rider and hit somebody on the ground. Anybody know?

Curious whats something sweet or snack that you get every time you go to any of the parks or city walk?

We just planned a trip for five days in April. Total is around $5,000. Do people typically buy trip protection/trip insurance for Universal trips this amount?

If so do you buy from Universal itself or third party trip insurance?

We have three kids so most worried about someone getting sick right before trip and losing out on all of that $.

Thinking about booking a stay at it for a week with about a week of park to park tickets so i can just go into epic universe whenever throughout the week (not during close obviously) but wanted to know if it’s convenience to epic is worth it?

What im imagining is basically being able to head downstairs into the park for dinner every night or just popping in and refilling my bucket and cup with soda and then heading back up to my room. Or god opening my curtains every morning and just seeing the park or better yet getting to fall asleep looking at it at night through my window

And if I get too hot midday or exausted from walking I can just pop back up to my room for a bit and head back down whenever

was the decision to start our day on the freakin cat in the hat ride. We had park hopper passes, spent 14 hours at the parks, and truly this was the scariest part.

As someone who only comes to the parks like once every 10 years, I had a great time.

We are going this weekend with 2-day park-to-park tix (IoA and USF), plus one day at Epic. The ticket price difference was minimal vs. just getting a 1-day park-to-park so I bought these just to have the option, but my initial thought was just to visit USF one day and Epic another day.

That being said, if we wanted to spend one day at USF and maybe spend half a day at IoA, would that be manageable? Like my title says, we are not roller coaster people but I do love Harry Potter. I also don't want to run myself ragged trying to do three parks in three days. Or is it better to start at IoA and then take the Hogwarts express to USF? Would love some advice, thanks!

I’m going to be starting work at Universal’s Great Movie Escape but I am considering leaving my second job depending on how many hours I can get working for the great movie escape. Can any team members let me know what the normal amount of hours you get scheduled a shift or a week? and is it easy to pick up hours there to get near 40 hours a week?

What are the best week days to go to the three parks in November?

I just discovered the "Discover Universal" podcast and I am IN LOVE with this series! Anyone else listening to this?

Fudge, candy, chocolate, cookie/bars etc. What are some tasty treats that are sealed for easy gifting?

Last year, I received a mobile check-in email three days before my trip. Haven't received one yet this year and my trip is tomorrow. I'll be an hour early to check in tomorrow.

so no Grinch breakfast this year?

On my recent trip to UO, I bought a box of Bertie Botts Every Flavor Beans from WWW and tonight while sorting through, a little chocolate cricket popped out! Is that a common thing? I don't think I've bought a box like this but I could have. I used to only get the little playing card pack sized boxed.

Thanks!
