Orlando, Sep 17 (THAINDIAN NEWS) Visitors of the Universal Orlando with extra pounds had been missing out of the famous ride named after ‘Harry Potter’ but it looks like their luck has changed now, as officials of the amusement have now taken a step to help overweight customers enjoy the ride too.
The Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey ride was announced by Universal Orlando to be undergoing renovations so the once narrow spaces will be enlarged after much criticism from customers in the past. Renovation work has started on the overheads that consumers gripped before going on the breathtaking rides.
The Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey ride is the most sort after ride in the Orlando based amusement park from the host of rides available at the park.
“We always want to accommodate as many guests as possible on our attractions. After watching Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey operate for several months, we made some adjustments to the ride’s overhead restraints that would allow more people to ride. We’re thrilled to be able to give more people the opportunity to experience this attraction,” according to Universal spokesman Tom Schroder.
The Orlando Attractions Magazine was the first to announce the company’s ongoing renovations on the famous ride. At the moment, only a couple of ride cars have been expanded but the rest is expected to follow suit soon.
