What are Universal ride times like?
Queue times across Universal vary greatly depending on the time of the year. The roller coasters, especially VelociCoaster and Hagrid's Motorbike Adventure, are always busy. Most of the kid friendly attractions have reasonable wait times all year round. In the summer time, the water rides can get very long queue times. Compared to other Orlando wait times, Universal wait times typically aren't too bad (sometimes you may even wait in longer lines at the Orlando Airport [MCO]). Halloween Horror Nights August through October is a very big draw.
