10th sept visit. We got to the park at 8.15 and were second in line. Entered park at 8.50 and at hagrid by 8.55 within the first 30 people in the queue.
On entering the queue we were told there is an extended delay and no opening time is available.
Several people left the queue. They closed the queue at 9.30. We stayed until 10am and then gave up on the repeated advice of the cast members to go and enjoy the other attractions (all rides were walk on 5-10 min waits). There were about 50 people left in the line.

I saw in the app the ride opened at approx 11am and got an alert about five minutes later.

We rejoined the queue at approx 12.45 with an advertised wait time of 90 minutes.

We got on the ride after 1 hour 4min wait including a 15 min wait in the middle when the ride closed.

Wow what a rollercoaster! Definitely worth the wait. I was the bike position and it was great fun. Can’t wait to repeat another time in the side car.

Couple of weeks until we go and was wondering why the parks appear to be so quiet just now?

We usually go in October and its always been a longer wait than being reported just now for all the major attractions.

Last time we were in Florida (2 years ago in Oct) the magic kingdom was rammed.

September is historically a quieter time, people will have rearranged their holidays because of Dorian etc.

It’s been quiet across all the parks. Volcano bay has been walk on for everything all day today apart from Krakatoa which was 80mins wait (virtual line at about 2pm). We went to the early entry today and did Krakatoa three times in a row without getting out of the boat!

Hagrids went down twice while I was in the queue today, and then again when we were ready to disembark. Posted a time of 90 minutes before we got on, and it took 90 minutes. Would have been way quicker if it stayed working. It was about 20 minutes to the pre-show.

Was going to type exactly the same! Better than Monday though when it was 210 minutes! i’m Sure it’s a great ride but I certainly wasn’t going to wait that long!
