Not a lot of news coming out of Universal today about the Wizard World of Harry Potter. The Orlando Sentinel is reporting that employees are testing the attraction Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey at this very minute. This attraction was kept tightly under wraps even during the the press/travel industry party held a few days ago. Invitees were shown the queue, but little else. Says the Sentinel:
Multiple sources say that Universal team members — a.k.a. employees — received an email asking them to help test the new ride called Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey, the mysterious attraction based in the Hogwarts castle at Wizarding World of Harry Potter.
Tomorrow is the first day that those who booked special packages will visit the attraction, but fans are hoping that today’s tests mean there will be soft openings (perhaps for annual pass holders) prior to the official June 18th opening.
We’re watching a number of websites and Twitter feeds and if anything else comes out, we’ll update.

I have heard at some other places that very few if any employees actually got to ride and that the ride was down. This will be interesting for tomorrow when all the guests arrive that paid for the Harry Potter vacation package.
