After the huge success this year of the Wizarding World of Harry Potter at Universal Studios, Orlando is considering implementing "black-out dates" on all its annual passes next year. The reason for this is to help combat the large crowds currently attracted to the new Harry Potter feature.
Annual pass holders will be asked to vote for or against this decision and can sign up at the Universal Orlando Website.
Universal Orlando has proposed to enable all annual pass holders to receive early entry to the Wizarding World of Harry Potter one hour before Islands of Adventure opens to the public, but only to guests staying in one of the resort's hotels.
The Wizarding World of Harry Potter has proven to be enormously successful since opening in June 2010. Overall attendance at Universal Orlando increased 36% in October compared to the same period a year ago, with the resort recording the strong financial results in its 20-year history for the preceding quarter.
What do you think about the proposed "black-out dates" for annual pass holder to Universal Studios Orlando?
