IOA Advice

These may be pretty obvious tips, but I have some really good advice...

1) Believe in the Express Pass system. They say you can get only three but truthfully, you can get as many as you want. With the Passes, you just come back to the ride during the hour-long time slots and you have at most a ten-minute wait for any ride. But a word to the wise, go around the islands collecting these Passes EARLY, becuase the booths are closed in the afternoon.

2) Believe in the single-riders line. Especially if you are a single-rider, lol. Even if you are in a small group, you will still probably be seated together. Like at BGT, the ride-ops on Rhino Rally reserved a whole Land Rover for the single-riders line.

3) If you refuse to do any of the previous things, make sure either you get to the park early to do the Hulk, or come back in the middle of the day. Because about an hour after the park opens, the line gets the longest. That and people like to do it before they leave. But get the Express Pass, trust me.

4) If you're not a big coaster fan, start off with Suess Landing and work your way around the park counter-clockwise.

Well, no one's responding...

Well, it's just advice, so take it or leave it. It's not like you have to reply, or anything, lol.

No problem, Andy! Glad I could be helpful to SOMEONE, lol. You'll love IOA if you go. Forgive me if some of my advice is outdated, but I went pretty recently, so I don't think it is.
