The Sunday evening in the epic universe should be magical.
The park was full of energy, the sun was above its detailed countries and the fans were in the Ministry for the fight, the flagship trip in the park in the Harry Potter area. But when the night ended, some guests went with something unexpected: free passes for other trips – and no trip through the Ministry of Magic.
How the evening took place
The problems started at 8:15 p.m. when the fight in the ministry suddenly came to a standstill. At first the guests would have assumed that it was only a short delay. But when the work lights brought in at 8:22 p.m., it became clear that this would take longer than reset faster.
The operations were finally resumed at 8:55 p.m., and the guests increased their hopes – just to race when the trip went back before the park was closed for the night. For some it was her only chance to experience the new attraction and she slipped away within a few minutes.
Today, today signs that the fight in the Ministry was closed this morning.
As it turned out, unplanned downtime at 8:15 p.m. Working lights at 8:22 p.m. Re -recorded at 8:55 p.m.

Do it right
Universal did not leave the disappointed guests empty -handed. The gesture of goodwill received those who received two after the downtime Single attraction fits Valid for an epic university by September. This is a decent advantage-in particular if it means to jump on other big ticket trips how to train your dragon-Isle of Berk or curse of the werewolf without waiting.
But as beautiful as free passes are, they cannot replace the experience for which the fans had hoped. For Harry -Potter lovers who had built their entire evening around the battle in the Ministry, the consolation price was not the main event.
No isolated incident
While the information for new attractions is normal, the fight in the Ministry was hit with so many that it developed a call. Early closings and lunch exits have become so common that the regular visitors plan their days to plan the possibility that the trip is not available.
This is a problem for a fixed -tent attraction. The guests expect occasional swallowing, but if downtime is more like the norm than the exception, the patience is thin.
What guests can do
If you have planned a trip and there is a fight on your must-do list in the ministry, it is best to drive it early a day. The longer you wait, the greater the risk of pushing into one of these closures. And if you are unlucky, you can at least go away with a few free passes to make the stitch a little less sharp.
Until Universal worked out the kink, the fight in the ministry could be the most exciting – and most unpredictable – adventure of the park.
