Tips from guest patterns
Actionable planning notes supported by multiple mentions. Confidence is mention-volume only — not a guarantee.
- Check the minimum age and your kids' scare tolerance — family fit feedback splits by age.
- Expect a no-deliberate-touch actor policy; still set group expectations if anyone is contact-sensitive.
- Prefer weeknights over Friday/Saturday if you want shorter lines.
