An Attraction in Islands of Adventure

Last updated: November 20, 2024

This attraction is currently closed!
It is scheduled to re-open in Unknown.
At a Glance
This is Islands of Adventure's biggest blunder. Engineered to accommodate only 170 persons per hour, the ride dangles you on a swing below a track that passes over a small part of Jurassic Park. We recommend skipping this one. Why? Because the Jurassic period will probably end before you reach the front of the line! And your reward for all that waiting? A 1-minute-and-15-second ride.

Touring Tips

When To Go
In the first or last 30 minutes of the day, or (better yet) not at all.
Loading Speed
Slower than a hog in quicksand.
Early Park Admission?
No
Wait per 100 People Ahead
28 min

We're amazed the ride still exists, given its low capacity and long lines; rumors of its demise have run rampant for years, but none (unfortunately) have panned out. We don't think Pteranodon Flyers is worth the wait, and Universal Express isn't valid on the attraction. If your children insist on riding, and abject bribery fails, get in line as quickly as possible after opening, or just before the park closes.

In 2016, IOA installed kiosks outside Camp Jurassic that dispense timed return tickets for Pteranadon Flyers, similar to those used for Wizarding World entry during peak season. When in use, you must retrieve a return ticket to ride; the total wait time before your turn ride arrives won't be much shorter than under the old system, but at least your kids can play in the caves instead of stewing in the standby line.
