    Decoding 2020

    It wasn’t referred to as decoding back then, but yes there was. We even had the leaked layout!

    Decoding 2020

    Banshee and MT were announced under a different management team and under different circumstances. Every addition to the park is unique. Industry trends have also been fluctuating on this. Universal broke the mold when they announced the Wizarding World of Harry Potter 2.5 years before opening. Diagon Alley was announced 1.5 years before opening. Hagrid’s coaster wasn’t officially announced until February of this year and it opens in June. I think they realized that people were deferring their vacations. My guess is we’ll see a short teaser campaign to hype up an announcement in late summer.
  3. When Tomb Raider opened, the gondola held 77 seats. After a few seasons, around 7 seats were removed from each row on the unload side of the gondola in an attempt to balance the gondola. Since this didn't completely solve the issue, the entire front row was removed. Changes were frequently made to the ride program but the intense maneuvers would ultimately cause the ride to fault even after all of the changes to the gondola. Basically, it was a top spin that couldn't top spin so it was removed. The ride itself never lived up to pre-show anyway.

    Whoever created this has a very good knowledge of KI Operations. As a previous poster said, 29 = non-operational ride. 4661 and 4660 were Firehawk's phone numbers. Clear-Going-Down = one of the spiels at Sky Flyer.
