I just did a search on Yahoo and seen that some sites, ****************.com, passporter.com, and mouseboss.com, are reporting that their will be a media preview from April 30 - May 2, that may result in a soft opening to the general public. Hopefuly

In all likelihood,Soft Openings will begin before April 30.

Cast Member training begins Sunday and is expected to last about a week.

Please explain how they do soft openings? Do they only allow certain people? How do they pick?

Thanks.

For SOs(Disney calls them "Dress Rehearsals")the attraction may open "on and off" all day,may open for a few hours only,may open all day or may not open at all(less likely).

So just luck that you are there at the right time? When they do open, wouldn't the line immediately get super long for a new ride like this?

We got to do etwb during dress rehearsals. I had read on here about the door to the area. I saw a cm standing there and I asked really nicely if there was any way we could experience etwb and he said why of course! He was really excited. He let our party of 2 in. What a magical experience. Not sure how 7dmt will play out. Stay tuned to the dis.

Oh Yea! We are going the first week of June. We might have to change some FP (that is, if they permit FP for it).

Wow, we fly down 4/29 and our 1st park day is MK on 4/30, and we also return there 5/4. Am hoping one of those days we can try it out; this is my kids first disney trip. All I've seen the youtube vids - is it basically a new cool roller coaster kind of ride? I wasn't aware of it until all the buzz on this board.
