Wow, well at least it seems guests can enjoy the rest of the park and Diagon Alley! I definitely won't be queueing for ages for Gringotts (we don't have early entry) but as long as I can enjoy the rest of DA then I'll be fine, will just have to book another trip for Gringotts

Do you think this wait time will be reduced by end of August? We do have early entry but I definitely couldn't wait 7 hours haha

I cannot possibly se how wait time can be reduced without building 4 gringots and another 4 rides, its the bank that is the mauin problem cos its so small,along with ride breaking down on and of,that is understable,given the hammering it has taken, ioa, a little like a graveyard in comparison, only 5/10 min wait times on everything early am that is, bondy.

my limit for queuing would be about an hour and a half. If its any longer im afraid it will just have to be another trip back maybe next year

Arrived at 7am & was a supposed 1hr wait, got off the ride at 11:10.

The ride kept breaking down & also it was difficult to tell how much further you had to go or time to take.

Beforehand I would say 90mins would have been the longest I would queue, however because of the early start and lack of info it turned into the marathon.

Ride is good, but ironically very quick!

I am just wondering if you have an idea of how long the queue might take from certain points, a bit of a difficult question to ask as I don't know the route for the queue but is there any reference points along that route/queue that you could say ok from this point it will take about x amount of minutes.

Edit: I just found this in one of your other posts Bondy, so am I right in thinking if you are near to the bank entrance then it is approx. 90 mins wait from there (providing no breakdowns, the ride I mean not me! ).

Once you are through the Bank you may again be stuck in line. This is because around the corner approx. 50-70 yards down they are taking your photos(in my opinion needlessly-this could be done at the very end of the experience?) From there it is approx. another 60-90 minute wait depending on if the line is moving or not
