FPs are now available for dates after 4th July

My window opens tomorrow - I'm guessing I really do need to be on it at 7am for my Pandora FPs, huh?!

From what I have seen/read it seems like you will want to be on as early as you can if you want one for Flight of Passage - a little easier to get one for the River ride

More CM preview reviews are coming in on Twitter. People are loving Flight of passage, some saying 20 out of 10 or thatbits their new favorite ride.

Pandora is now on the AK map on the WDW website.

I am worried about the sizing thing.. If I fit in 7DMT will I fit here?

For reference, I made my NRJ at 8 am on my 60 day Saturday. Then, I added FOP yesterday afternoon after seeing all the reviews and deciding to flex our plans a bit.

My NRJ is at 9 am for 21 people. All the times were pretty wide open.

My FOP is at 9 pm for 3 people and also had times available all day.

I'm sure the further into a FP window you get the availability would go down, but so far I have not had an issue.

FWIW in comparison, I dropped 7DMT to change to FOP and it was saying no availability all day for that...

with the mist and little creature and robot icons it looks like a map from Star Craft or something

We don't know. This isn't a seat like 7DMT.

Not necessarily. I actually switched to FOP easily at 50 days out (and now I switched back to NVG at about 47 days out, ha!) also with no issues.

 

[mnmhouston]

OK. I'm fine for Soarin' but not so good with FJ (the screen parts are what do it).

I have never done FJ, but it's the screen parts that get me a little in soarin'. Still trying to find out how much the seat moves. I'd be ok with the motion of the seat, but in soarin' it's the screen that simulates the drop feeling. Trying to find out if in FOP, can you close your eyes to not have that feeling or does the seat actually move enough to cause the stomach drop. Bottom line is the seat that actually drops or the screen that simulates it?

I still don't know what to do. Do I risk it, or do I switch to NRJ? Craig's analysis of this being the "first" ride at Disney that people complain not being able to experience the ride is scaring me. Any CM reports about leg room today?

Saw one guest of a CM report that in his ride group they were unable to get the restraints to latch so he was politely asked to leave. Just said a larger fellow but nothing beyond that so no clue as to size.

I'm going to CM preview on Thursday, I will specifically ask the CM operating the attraction about this.

K. I heard a while back that guests who are 6"4" and taller would feel uncomfortable. I'm right at 6'4" and my Dad is 6'7", so it is important to know. I have talked to my Dad about it and he doesn't really care if he won't be able to ride the ride or not. I just want him to be able to if he can.

Does anyone know if there is anything in place if guests can't ride a certain attraction due to height or size if they are given a FP for something else? In this case possibly getting one for NRJ? It would be tough luck to have a FP for FoP to get there and be told you can't ride it. Then you basically wasted a FP.

 

[TygerHawks]

ughh...didn't get FP for FOP because not everyone will ride that one, so did river instead. First day we go will be an MK day which opens at 9, but AK has EMH at 7. Wondering if I could go to AK, ride FOP, then get back to MK by about 8:30. Does that sound feasible?

As Pandora hasn't officially open no one knows what they will do in that case but I will ask and see if they have a guest recovery plan in place

I don't believe there is anything currently in place but if this becomes a serious problem there might be. Even then I wouldn't expect anything to be compensated.

 

[Starlord22]

I will be there May 26th to May 28th for opening day. Booked 30 days out and so far no fast passes have popped up. I'm glad to see FOP will have a single rider line since I will be solo on this trip.

Thanks. I look forward to seeing your report on this @yulilin3. I was just curious to know if WDW did anything like this on other rides and other parks since people plan FP 60 days out without knowing what they are getting themselves into sometimes.
