Flight of Passage

[SteveInOmaha]

Does the whole room move, or just the vehicle you’re sitting on. If we bring our resort mugs with drinks still in them, will they stay in place on the back shelf during the attraction?

I think its the floor and seats, not the back walls

 

[MasonDuo]

Whoa that's a long time to still have a drink.....resort, bus, walk through the Kingdom, stand in line.....i'd be thirsty well before the end of Flight of Passage. Those mugs barely hold enough to get from the food court back to the room. I applaud your resolve. But in seriousness, I doubt the cast members will let you hold a full drink all the way thru the pre-show rooms and then to the ride itself.

There is a stable shelf on the back wall where you can store your things. The floor and room do not move. Your ride ‘vehicle‘ is the only thing that moves.

The floor under the seat drops away and vehicle moves forward I think. The floor you walk on doesn't move and there are cubbies up the back for your bags

When the ride starts, I believe the floor drops and remains stationary. The backwall and stroage area stays stationary. Only each ride vehicle moves.

The floor the ride vehicle is on moves up and down quite a bit, but yes, the back wall does not move.

The whole "cage" that the seats are in moves up and down, a bit like the Tower of Terror ride system (but obviously not as fast!), the back wall where the baggage racks are do not move. See this video from about 10:30 (warning: spoilers for the ride -do not watch if you don't want the magic revealed!)

In my opinion, it moves a lot more than it feels - when on the ride I didn't even realise it moved up and down!

Just a warning, a few trips ago we brought drinks in line and we had to get out of line towards the end so that my 9 year old could go to the bathroom. He just couldn't hold it anymore. Now we don't take drinks in line.

Wait, I thought my um, brain was linked to a um, banshee. Why would that make the walls move?

It is, but the link chairs move too because...to simulate the ride for your physical body and...better link to your Avatar. Yeah. That's right.

They failed to wash all the microbes off you in the pre-ride room

You beat me to it! Yeah, I was surprised when I started seeing those videos on Youtube, since I hadn't thought the "banshee" really felt like it was moving much at all. Also surprised by the ride mechanism in general.

To answer the original question: the cubbies on the back wall where they have you put your stuff do not move. However, in one video I've seen the camera the video creator set up in the cubby got knocked over when the hood/front wall came up at the start of the actual ride. The camera didn't fall out or anything, but had it been a full drink mug that got knocked over the owner could have come back to a mess. So I generally would not want to leave any liquids in there if they're not in a fully leak-proof container.
