I just saw a commercial today - it was actually an ad for a contest to win a trip to WDW so it may just be playing in Ottawa. Anyhow, they showed a family on a ride and I can't figure out what it is but it looks like fun. It looks like a chair lift - suspended, seats 4 side by side in a divided long seat. It looks like on of the virtual rides and you can see mountains etc. Does anyone know which ride this is??

The others are right. The ride is called "Soaring", it is one of the rides/attractions brought in from around the world to WDW. The "Soaring over California" is brought from Disneyland and it is a fantastic ride, I can't wait to get on it again. I makes you feel like you are in a windglider "soaring" :) over California, you can feel the breeze on you and smell the different scents. For instance the flowers and fruit as you fly overhead. Fortunately you don't smell the smog as you soar over San Francisco. Really fun ride.

Thanks everyone. Three questions:

Where is it?
Would it be too much for a 6 month pregnant woman?
How strong are the scents - I'm allergic to perfumes etc - is it really overpowering?

It's in Epcot - FW in "The Land"
IMHO it would be fine for a preggers lady
I didn't find the scents overpowering and I also didn;t find they 'hung around'

Does it make your stomach feel all "funny" like roller coasters or ferris wheels?

Only on a couple of spots! It's very much like those Circle 360 movies only you don't feel ill because you are sitting, not standing. It's an awesome ride!
