"How we rode 17 attractions in one day, with time to spare..."

Our Predictions for Yesterday Were Really Good! Friday, August 17, 2018
Our wait times predictions were within 3 minutes for the following attractions: Woody Woodpecker's Nuthouse Coaster (0 min), One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish (0 min), Storm Force Accelatron (0 min), Revenge of the Mummy (+0 min), Doctor Doom's Fearfall (+1 min), Dudley Do-Right's Ripsaw Falls (+1 min), Shrek 4-D (+1 min), Flight of the Hippogriff (+2 min), The Cat in the Hat (+2 min)
We were within 7 minutes: Transformers: The Ride-3D (-7 min), MEN IN BLACK Alien Attack (-6 min), The Incredible Hulk Coaster (-5 min), The High in the Sky Seuss Trolley Train Ride! (-5 min)
We were within 10 minutes: The Simpsons Ride (-8 min), Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey (-8 min), E.T. Adventure (-8 min), Popeye & Bluto's Bilge-Rat Barges (+7 min)
The attractions above come from our core group of 21 attractions used in calculating crowd levels. To assess accuracy, we calculate the average posted wait time between 11 AM and 5 PM and compare that to our predicted average wait time for that time period. A negative number means that the average wait time was lower than our prediction; a positive number means the average wait time was higher than our prediction.

The Crowd Calendar Is Based On Wait Times

Our researchers have collected wait times in Universal Orlando for over a decade. Thanks to our mobile app, we get wait times daily from our fabulous users.

What The Numbers Mean

The crowd level is based on a scale from 1 to 10, with 1 being the least crowded and 10 being most crowded. The scale represents the average wait time between 11 AM and 5 PM at the key attractions. Read more on Crowd Levels.
