Overview
- Retractable badge reels with metal components are no longer permitted on VelociCoaster, according to guest reports amplified by fan outlets.
- Team Members at the entrance are advising visitors of the rule, and metal detectors are flagging the items before guests are redirected to lockers.
- The restriction targets the metal parts of the reels, while small pouches without metal are generally still allowed.
- The change, reported as beginning to roll out in February, brings VelociCoaster in line with The Incredible Hulk Coaster and Stardust Racers.
- Coverage of the update stems from on-site observations and WDWNT reporting, with no separate widely circulated Universal statement noted in these articles.
