They do with their taxis, but the bus service seems to be fine most of the time.

Indeed. I deal with their taxi and shuttle service every night. Always issues. Hoping this BUS service is a breeze for Universal though.

If the bus service wasn't reliable, Disney wouldn't have them running it for DCL and ME.

To be fair, Disney did have concepts for a waterpark that was once planned for DLPR; that did have similar themes, and was made by some of the individuals responsible for Volcano.

Looks like left-handers get a little less experience if those logos light up.

Plus, the South Pacific Island get away theme is something many people dream about as their ultimate desire.

So if all the buses from hotels will use that loop then what is the other loop next to the entrance for? Access to it doesn't seem at all convenient.

The idea is to keep Universal buses within the property where as the bus loop in front of the park is for 'outside' buses such as tour groups.

I would imagine that single riders and small groups will be grouped together for those rides. Otherwise the decision to build a water coaster with 4 person rafts, one slide tower with 5 person rafts, and another slide tower with 6 person rafts is more than a little silly.

True. I assume that's why only Portofino and Cabana Bay appeal to me. My dream vacation is not the ocean but a ton of people indeed have that as a getaway dream.

They can put a single person on anything.

I don't disagree. I was more talking about what they logically would/should do, not everything they could do.

I'd guess we'll see when it opens in a few weeks. Expect towels, flip flops, key chains, etc. The usual theme park/water park souvenirs with Volcano Bay logos on them.
