No Primeval Whirl 08/18 :(

[DISNEY1975]

Just got an Email cancelling my FP for PW on the 18th

Even sadder is they are replacing it with an EE FP, 3 hours later than this one (we wont be at the park then) and EE is the one and only ride my family will not get on! No big deal, but I will miss PW

Sorry you're going to miss out.

The saga of this ride being down is quite interesting. Any other ride and there would be a 50 page thread around here.

Also for those reading along, it appears the latest news is it will be closed through 9/28.

I'm kind of disappointed that it's closed! We're coming for our one-and-done WDW trip in a couple of weeks, and I had a FP for it. We are doing the After Hours at AK, too, and Primeval Whirl is one of the few rides that wasn't included in the DAH event, which is why I got us a FP for it. I've never ridden it, obviously, but have heard it's like Goofy's Flight School at DL, which we all enjoyed! Now Disney have give us replacement FP for EE which I don't think we'll need - we can ride EE till we're green during the DAH, I hear. Plus they're for after we'd planned to leave the park. So, I'm now exploring other options to use that FP for - maybe the Finding Nemo Musical, which we're planning to see but I hear doesn't really need a FP?

You really don't need a FP for Finding Nemo, the Musical. There are plenty of seats in the theatre. There is no advantage to using a fast pass for,shows. Shows are scheduled at a certain time and you will have to wait in line. The difference you wait in FP line and at a point it will merge with stand by line.
