As a frequent visitor to WDW, having gone to IOA only once many years ago, I decided to take my teens to US last week. My impressions:
- Because it was a busy holiday I paid the extra charge for shorter lines. It worked ok, but wow was it expensive! Over $800 total for 3 people for one park, one day! Makes Disney look inexpensive.
- The rides were mostly seats that wiggle around while you watch various projections. Felt like a cheap imitation of WDW. Lots of other things felt like Disney knock offs.
- One ride that squirts water at you did so again and again. After the first spray the surprise is over and the others seemed lame.
- Although the kids liked it okay, we were done in about 5 hours. Had we bought multi day tickets I don’t think they would have wanted to go back for more time.
No disrespect intended to US fans, but I don’t think we will return.
Two days later we went to MK (on the day after Christmas). After about 7 pm the lines on most rides were 10-15 minutes. We had a great time at less than 1/2 the cost at US.
