whats your thoughts without being too specific on FOP queue and ride?
did you try any dessert like the cheesecake or the lumpia?

FYI - their response (I am IAAOT on twitter)

@IAAOT Blueberry dessert was better than the cheesecake and FOP was INCREDIBLE. Queue was detailed and the entire thing was breathtaking.

From the DIS

Blueberry dessert was better than the cheesecake.

Flight of Passage is incredible, and breathtaking.

FoP screen is like Soarin but not as rounded, no bad seats.

Seat is similar to Tron coaster in Shanghai.

Test seat is out front.

Ride vehicle is very realistic.

Less intense than Forbidden Journey.

No video allowed on FoP.

Live Pandora entrainment at the drum circle.

Confirmation:

FOP DOES NOT lift off the ground like Soarin. It is stationary.

The seat moves and that is all

Screen is same size as Soarin but not as curved

This is all from @TheDIS

Any word on how FoP is for the more...erm...rotund guests? Has any one reported being too pooh sized to ride or to be comfortable?

No size comparisons but Dis crew said absolutely some guests will have issues but there is a test seat outside for those concerned.

I wish I felt like I had an answer but nothing DIS tweeted confirmed what I am wondering.

I don't think anyone thought it was going up like Soarin' - the early interior photos confirmed that.

Guess I'll have to dig for better answers from others who rode today.

From what DIS said, it sounds like the actual vehicle itself tilts up and down and sideways etc....

The test vehicle is really only helpful for those who are looking at whether its worth the standby line wait time and less so for those that already wasted a FP on it in the event they arrive and cant ride it-Should anyone of size just not FP FoP?

I totally understand the frustration. I know as more people go information will come out about size etc. i imagine with CM previews soon will get some more information. I haven't heard of anyone not being able to ride yet (except the 1 CM in a training report).

so reading the ITM article they will be there tonight to see the land lit up
will the dis be there as well?

 

[HydroGuy]

What questions do you have?

Yes I saw those but have not seen CONFIRMED answer to the questions ...

- Does it remain in place?
- Does it go out, as if in "space"?
- Is there any danger of a fall?

 

[CounselorX]

I'm sure nobody knows and we'll just have to wait and see how crowd levels are, but just in case I'm wrong - Does anyone know if the extra magic hours will extend past July 4th? We'll be there 9/5 - 9/19.

 

[Spridell]

From everything I have read:

-yes
-no
-no (you are in there pretty good)

Just to add, the response I got in asking how the food/beers were:

@IAAOT Surprisingly delicious and unique.

 

[rteetz]

The seat moves. The actual platform doesn't move into the projection areas like Soarin. No Fall worry, can't see why there would be one in the first place.

They never answered my question

I guess if you are worried, knowing there is a single rider for FoP and you can only FP one might be safer to FP the river ride

Yes
