Love it, but watch the motion sickness
Pros:
When you pay attention to where they point you it is an amazing ride.Cons:
I was so enthralled with the mechanisms used to give you the flying feeling that I got soooooo motion sick. I don't ever get sick until I was at the end seat and watched the mechanisms not what they wanted you to see. My daughters begged to go on again, I fought through the sick feeling(luckily one hour wait) and truly enjoyed it when I rode the second time.Reviewed by StephanieSchatz Review Date: 09/30/2020

The queue for the ride is so realistic! The ride itself is great. The drop at the beginning of the ride builds suspense, but the drop itself is short and goes quickly. The ride is the perfect combination of thrills and imagery. It's one of my favorites!
Pros:
Imagery both before and during the ride. Smooth coaster with many accelerations.Cons:
If you are overweight and/or tall, you may be asked to ride in the last row of the coaster to provide more leg room and allow the lap bar to lower to the appropriate setting.Reviewed by EmilyKay23 Review Date: 09/28/2020

Fantastic ride may get a little wet more moving than digital screens however if you get stopped and they go to restart I highly recommend you close your eyes. They screens go on hyper speed to catch up to the correct point of the story and can be nauseating.
Pros:
Wondering on theme but thrilling for non Harry Potter fans.Cons:
Almost a walk on when I went but if not a hp fan que can seem really long.Reviewed by KWeber24 Review Date: 09/28/2020

Extremely well done ride. Interactive and fun for all ages. Does represent very well.
Pros:
Very interactive with ride vehicle and ride track. Attention grabbing. Well done and interactive waiting queue. More space in ride vehicles for if you have tall people in your parties. If someone in your party struggled to get on Forbidden Journey, there is a better probability that they can fit on this ride.Cons:
Can cause motion sickness and does have some periods of flashing lights. If you have very young or easily scared children, there might be portions where they are scared.Reviewed by SarahAllen Review Date: 09/23/2020

I love this ride. This is my 2nd favorite Harry Potter ride. The queue is incredible, the ride is exciting but not too intense to make it fun for the whole family!
