Guests can once again soar through the air on Pteranodon Flyers at Universal Islands of Adventure.
Pteranodon Flyers Reopens
Pteranodon Flyers is in the Jurassic Park section of Universal Islands of Adventure. The minimum height requirement is 36 inches (92 centimeters). It’s unique in that it was designed for kids so also has a maximum height requirement — 56 inches (143 centimeters). Taller riders are allowed to accompany those who meet the height requirement, and a supervising companion is required for riders under 48 inches (122 centimeters).
Around 10 a.m. on Friday, the wait time was only 35 minutes.
Taking flight beneath the 10-foot wings of a Pteranodon, little adventurers will get an amazing view of all the theme-park excitement below. They’ll slowly soar and gently swing through the air in a comfy seat suspended from a track above. With no sudden or scary movements, this ride is perfect for younger guests not ready for big-kid thrills.
The ride closed unexpectedly on April 16, 2024. It never reopened and Universal added the attraction to their list of closures with no reopening date. In early January, team members began testing the ride.
