Express isn’t going away. Just the small portion of it that was with season passes (they only sold a few hundred last year). Single night express is still available and the lines will be just as long as ever. The only people this hurts are the most loyal fans who’ve been coming and spending money at HHN many nights per season for several years.

@RealJoshMorrow @UniversalORL Its a fantastic decision. You realise how much faster the lines will move now? Express shouldnt even be a thing. Get in like like everyone else.

I feel bad for everyone in creative for #HHN. This is a low blow to them and the massive fan base they create this event for. All because over educated morons in offices think they know it all and made this decision. Absolutely stupid on @UniversalORL’s part. Lost all excitement.

@TravisCoaster @KevkuSa That’s absolutely correct

@slfordMD @KevkuSa What we all need to understand is if we’re honest. Them getting rid of this is due to testing the single pass option that you’ll pay for express per house. They will get WAY more money that way.

People cancelling vacations for this is WILD. Like. Be for real and a bit less entitled. Thanks

The frequent fear passes with express (that ones good for the whole season) sold out last year in seconds. I know, because I was online on the site the minute they dropped and had to settle for a lower tier option. They never came back. The rush of fear ones (good for the first two weeks) with express had more inventory, and the ones that included only Thursdays and Sundays lasted a while longer too.

@slfordMD @VINEsauce_Jay @ohtownx Multi night express sold out in minutes as well as came back 2 weeks in and sold consistently throughout the season.

Last year, they only sold a couple hundred of the most popular season pass option with Express. We are talking about a very small portion of the overall Express line. The Express lines aren't going away, and they will still be brutal. Also, Express only lets you go through each house once per night, so they weren't just going through the houses multiple times each visit.

ppl complaining about there no longer being FFP w express is the same convo as removing express from hagrids; they r simply optimizing efficiency. express is NOT a PRIVILEGE for locals to use multiple times a night multiple times a week. just wait in line like a normal person

The vast majority of the people in Express Lines are people with single-night Express. Last year, the most popular season pass option with Express was limited to a couple hundred people. The effect of Express lines on standby will be just as brutal as they've always been. The only thing that would change that is if they got rid of Express altogether.

@KevkuSa Giving people the opinion to pay for express every night should honestly not have happened. It has killed the lines the past few years. I really hope it makes things better this year

@VINEsauce_Jay @ohtownx @TravisCoaster That is still going to be the case. The people with multi-night tickets with Express were a small fraction of the people in the Express lines.

@ohtownx @TravisCoaster Less people in express lines means less stopping the regular queue at the split point, I think the more people going into GA lines will be surpressed because the line will be constantly moving now, no need to stop it every 10 GA for 60 express.

My wife and I have been coming to the event since 2012 — the first 4 times flying in from KY and TX before moving to Tampa in 2017. Have attended HHN ~8-10+ nights every year since then, gladly paying the exorbitant cost for the FF+Express. Also have maintained UOAPs every year even mainly for stay & scream (only making it to the parks 1-2 other times per year most years). There’s no telling how many thousands and thousands of dollars we’ve spent at Universal in annual passes for our family of five, HHN multinight tickets, food, merchandise, and expensive hotel stays. For my 40th in ‘24 we brought a dozen of our best friends to HHN for an evening (and paid for their single night express). So, thanks a lot @UniversalORL for showing how much you value the loyalty of your most devoted fans. I’m sure in the name of “improving the guest exoerience” you’ll be greatly limiting the number of single night express tickets you sell each date for $200-$300 🙄🙄 @HorrorNightsORL @Michael_Aiello @HHNmeanone

@Brand0nV00rhees As we continue to evaluate our offerings in an effort to provide the best Halloween Horror Nights experience for all guests, we have discontinued all Fear with Express Pass products. Other Fear pass options will go on sale soon. Visit spr.ly/6018BEZBPm for event details.

@HorrorNightsORL @UniversalORL I've heard the rumblings that you're taking away multi-night tix with express. As someone who only vacations to #HHN for two out of state trips, that's definitely a choice, especially this year when people have less disposable income.

@LiamFromOrlando @AliciaStella You think Universal is going to cut back on how many single night express passes they can sell for $200-$300+?

@AliciaStella Hopefully this will cut back on how much express is sold significantly

End of an era

@DaBeardedXeno @drubov Unless they limit the single night express passes sold (they won’t), this won’t create a dent in the express line waits.

@drubov As someone who can only make it down for a few days each year and is not a local, I love this change. Express lines were just too crowded, the event over stuffed as it is. Express pass will ACTUALLY be worth it for my group now.

Just like that, the vibes of this year's event for many (myself included) take a nosedive. I can't imagine the amount of money being lost on the sales & hotel bookings for some guests. Seems like a big gamble. Personally, I plan on little to no in-park spending. Make it hurt.

@lilboogroupie @UniversalORL @CBrune15 Use your flight credit to exchange for different flights and take a different vacation than @UniversalORL Preferably to a location that doesn’t fleece the group that has been their most loyal customers for decades.

@UniversalORL @CBrune15 Out of state passholders who buy ROF, stay on site for a week and spend a fortune on food/drinks/merch every year for 10 years. This will be our last year. We’re already roped in because of plane tickets. Extremely disappointed in UO.

@UniversalORL @HorrorNightsORL if it is true that multi night tickets aren't coming with a express option this year, it should of been communicated way before they release the tickets so people could plan better.. also it's really messed up bc the express passes have gone up..

@AProkulewi63889 @UniversalORL @CBrune15 You think Universal is going to meaningfully limit the number of express passes they can sell hand over foot for $200-$300+ per person, per night?? 😄

@UniversalORL @CBrune15 I bet this is going to help GA and regular lines.. they will sell limit3d Express passes making the regular/GA lines go quicker.. im very interested how the Multi day tickets will work

Pure greed Loyal fans who come multiple nights every year, stalking the site every day to look for multinight tickets, are the type of fans who would have bought single night express passes for the nights they need them immediately when they went on sale (when they were much cheaper than they are now after price hikes). Thanks a lot @UniversalORL

@UniversalORL @CBrune15 @UniversalORL @HorrorNightsORL Why wasn’t this communicated when express tickets went on sale? You’ve waited until the price went up significantly (especially if you want to purchase multiple nights) to tell your most dedicated fan base that they are just out of luck. SMH

@rltippett37 @RonDeSantis Were the rules followed when the ref reviewed VAR in slow motion (not allowed) to issue a red card on a play that wasn’t even called a foul in live play?

@RonDeSantis Standing up for integrity and the rules isn't weak it's having a strong moral compass, something that you and all Trump followers would know nothing about. Lying and cheating to achieve isn't strength it's weak and meaningless

Weak on the part of Belgium.

@HappyFloridian2 @NimaHairy @RonDeSantis It already happened before in this very World Cup

@NimaHairy @RonDeSantis Lol, research how many times FIFA has overruled a suspension. I'll wait...

@NimaHairy @RonDeSantis Were the rules of the game followed when the ref reviewed VAR in slow motion (not allowed) to issue a red card on a play that wasn’t even called a foul in live play?

@RonDeSantis With all due respect, Governor - seeking fairness and application of the rules in a game…is not a sign of weakness. Otherwise, what would you call the President’s initial action of wanting to overturn the red card as, then…? 🤔 on that note, may the best team win 😉🥇 ⚽️

@Peter_Laman @RonDeSantis Were the rules of the game followed when the ref reviewed VAR in slow motion (not allowed) to issue a red card on a play that wasn’t even called a foul in live play?

@RonDeSantis Is it weak to demand that the rules of the game are followed? Infantino's decision is just the arrogance of power. It is 100% clear from the rules that Balogun should be suspended for this match.

@Telogor_ @DoogiTubeTv @_harrison_payne @SomethingUNATCO

@Telogor_ @DoogiTubeTv @_harrison_payne @SomethingUNATCO Just accept and acknowledge that you were wrong. That type of maturity is a positive quality. It will feel good.

These people can vote just like you and I.

@Telogor_ @DoogiTubeTv @_harrison_payne @SomethingUNATCO Standard grammar treats “like” as a preposition requiring the objective case “you and me”; the implied-verb defense is a common but incorrect. Both forms appear in informal English, but “you and I” in this instance is a hypercorrection.

@slfordMD @DoogiTubeTv @_harrison_payne @SomethingUNATCO Imagine having such unquestioning faith in a text model that's trained on the very errors you're trying to prove.
