*BREAKING* - 🇺🇸 Soarin' Across America comes to Walt Disney World Summer 2026! 🇺🇸

Super excited for all of this! We already booked July 4th BB offers at a resort on property so definitely have to go now!

Do we think they’ll keep til the end of 2026? I know it’s all speculation at this point. Now I’m debating moving our Aug trip to go over the 4th!

We don't know for sure, though I think it's likely to run through the end of the year. It also wouldn't surprise me if they brought it back for limited engagements here and there.

I hope it stays much longer than that, especially after the $$$ it’s probably costing to produce it.

We won’t ride the World version, so I don’t pay attention to wait times there, but I have noticed a significant decrease in activity outside Soarin’ when getting off of Living with the Land, compared to past years. I hope that the new version is so wildly popular that they never bring World back again.

Well, I think the decreased activity may be because of the third theater. They really cut wait times with that. Soarin' is still really popular, even the World version.

I hope this is ready in time for our trip in late May/early June. I also hope the ride isn't down for refurbishment too long or especially during our trip. Since it's just changing the film (I think?), hopefully the refurbishment downtime will be minimal (maybe they can do it overnight one night?).

I'm sure some may have seen this already...

Changing the film is easy with digital projections, and I assume the ride motion program would be easy too (it really just swings you up at certain moments). They probably need to test that a little bit. They also need to change out the scent canisters or whatever they are - I don't know how involved that might be. I do expect there to be a short down-time, but not longer than a few days I'd think.
