CM's are having guests try out the FoP test seat.

I'm really curious to hear how the test seat works out and if it winds up being accurate for everyone. I don't see any reason why it wouldn't, but you never know.

Wow! We have a vacation planned in August. I'm hoping things improve a little by then.

What's involved in a phase 3?

What does that phase entail?

 

[AMusicLifeForMe]

I am really interested to see what tomorrow is like. Of course today is crazy being opening day but tomorrow would be interesting to compare. I am just hoping it's not this crazy on Wednesday.

I really hope so too.

Only disney resort guests, passholders, or guests with a dining reservation I think

I just left. The line to enter Pandora wraps all the way down to Rainforest Cafe.

The end of both ride lines were down the exit path near Lion King bathrooms!!

There is absolutely no chance the wait to enter the land is anywhere near under an hour.

correct

You can't really do that. At some point you have to open to everyone and you have to know there will be crowds.

True. Maybe a special fastpass. That way you wont be waiting in line and know when it is your time to enter.

I"m kicking myself for not booking a doors off helicopter tour over AK right now.. would be amazing to get photos of this.. Don't think anyone has ever done aerial park closure before.

They did that for 4 weeks of cast, then ap holders then press. imagine if they didn't?

 

[TheMaxRebo]

I think they need to do something to make opening day easier for everyone. Maybe sell tickets with time frames that only allows so many people to enter Pandora for couple hours then next group could enter.

I mean, they had previews for several weeks where you did just that, book a few hour time frame.. If they only did what you said others will complain if they don't get one, etc.

No way to make everyone happy - and it should really just be today that is this crazy so just one day to deal with it and then get passed it

 

[maryj11]

I'm interested in what it'll look like tonight. We want to head back over to AK around 10pm to see Pandora at night, but I'll skip that if I have to wait to get into the land

Take some photos to post if you go.

WOW!!! These updates are nuts! I'm thrilled that people are flocking to see this masterwork of a land. But I'm even more thrilled that I won't be there until early September when all these kids are back in school!

Cm are making everyone that might not fit try the test vehicle before getting in line
The pictures on the previous page was just a lady that wanted a picture. She want asked to try it
I have seen about 10 guests be asked to try the seat, only 1 has not been able to ride

That is a really good shot at it and I can see why there could be issues with the leg restraints just fitting in below your thighs and where it hits your calves and stuff

 

[wareagle57]

I was expecting today to be bad. But when I woke up around 7:30 eastern and saw the wait times were 70 and 120 I thought maybe it wouldn't be so crazy after all. Never expected a phase 3 closure at Disney's largest park. The scary thing is, the wait times are pretty bad at the other 3 parks too. MK is the only place you can get anything done without a FP.

I feel sorry for the CM's today
