Happily ever after...Tinkerbell

[cinnaminny]

Does Tinkerbell fly around every night during Happily Ever After, or is only on weekends/specific evenings?

I've gone to Disneyland in the past and seemed like a few nights she wasn't there. So I am planning which nights we need to park it for fireworks.

Every performance, weather permitting.

I was shocked seeing tinker bell flying last weekend. For some reason I never expected her to be real!!! I though it was going to be a light projection. I was so pleasantly surprised and giddy!!!!

Tinkerbell's flight is contingent on the wind. Disneyland gets strong winds a lot more than WDW so her flight can be scratched more often (as can the fireworks). At WDW, the wind is usually not a problem, though it does happen when storms are about.

I remember early in January back in 2010 it must have been in the upper 30s/low 40s at MK with a light breeze more than one night and still there was Tink flying across the sky. I could only imagine how cold Tink was by the end of the flight.

I love it so much, it never gets old!

That makes sense! I never thought of the wind.
