I am going to DL tomorrow and was wondering if the Nemo ride is still "must run as soon as the park opens" status, or if it has calmed down since the opening? TIA!!!!
We've been here for a week. Every day the line has been 2 hours. Even very early. Did you know there is an 'observation deck' that runs a video of what you would see on the sub ride? We went in the exit and asked and were guided to an A/C cooled room with a few seats and a big screen. As far as my kid is concerned, he rode Nemo!
Can anyone use the observation area? What was the wait like? Looks like that is the route we'll be taking as well.
So, if I have any hope of seeing it with my 3 and 1 year olds I should get at the gate on early entry at 6 or 6:30am and mad dash it to Nemo?
Wondering if it is even worth the 2+ hour wait...

(If you are a guest at one of the Disney hotels and want to ride Nemo first thing, go to the front gate early; don't ride the monorail - it usually doesn't arrive until several minutes after the front gates open; by then the line to Nemo is very long!)
I thought this way at first, but then changed my mind after our trip in late June. This was only two weeks after Nemo opened, and the lines to enter DL on the EE and non-EE mornings were huge. But the rush to Nemo was much more intense on non-EE mornings. I decided that we could Fantasyland first thing on a non-EE morning and it would be best to use our one EE on Nemo. After doing that, I definitely concluded that was best. We got to the DL gates 40 minutes early for EE (instead of our normal 20-30 minutes early). If you try to do Nemo first thing on a non-EE day, you should get to the gates 45-50 minutes early.I agree with the previous poster, if I had one EE, I would use it on Fantasyland, and ride Nemo first thing on a non-EE day. But I would also recommend getting to the gates AT LEAST 1/2 hour before opening.
