ok thanks i am going to be there from 8th of may thew the 17th and our preview time is sunday the 14th i was just wondering

Yea emails will be sent out by May 12th

We should get everything we need to know when the e-mail goes out.
Unless they have it scheduled differently, my plan is to ride the rides first then
explore the land and try some food at the Canteen if it is available to us.

Our preview is on the 13th from 3-5 and we have the same plan as most, rides first, food/shopping and explore after. These next 12 days can't go fast enough.

Hopefully Disney sends emails out a day or 2 before the 12th. Our flight leaves at 5:30am on the 12th and if there's something else I need to print out to bring with us to the preview, I'd like to do that before we leave.

Christmas morning doesn't even compare to how excited I am to finally step foot on Pandora. Everything we've seen so far this past week with all the pics and videos proves that it's going to be absolutely phenomenal.

I'm curious about crowd control. How will they clear out the area when your 2 hours is up? I'm not looking to try to sneak in more time. I'm worried about arriving for my time slot at 3 and encountering all the people from the previous time slots still inside the area.

I'm curious about crowd control as well. This will be my first AP preview of a new land.
In another thread I posted in asking about the crowd, a poster replied that there were supposedly 1800 AP spots per 2 hr slot.
I'm going on Mon May 15. I chose 6p-8p time slot hoping to get to see
things lit up as it starts to get dark. Super excited is all I can say after reading reviews of the rides and everything.

There's an hour in between. Rides, shops, food close, cms direct those to exit

i wonder how they will push people out for the last group of the day besides closing everything

So if they are doing it the same as CM previews it looks like you'll get a paperfast pass for the rides then will return dueing that time to ride and can explore during the rest of the time. Not 100% sure that's how it is going but seeing lots of photos of paper fastpasses today during Cm preview.

That'll be great if they keep it that way

We'll find out more as CM previews continue but it is rhe only thing I could think of for the need of FP tickets.

Oh that's awesome! Very organized. I hope they keep it that way for the AP preview.

Yeah people at CM previews are only being allowed to ride each attraction once.

I really hope they keep this strategy for AP previews next week as well. It not only insures that everyone gets to experience each attraction but also allows for a more casual exploration of the land, shopping and food offerings without the worry of burning the 2 hour time slot standing in 2 different q's.

I'm excited for the preview. I've been avoiding spoilers. But I am interested in how they will work AP previews.

But if let's say your preview is from noon to 2pm and you go to Satu'li Canteen at 1:55pm and order food they are not going to kick you out at 2pm.
I'm doing the CM preview on Thursday and this is what I plan to do, I've heard that it's not a hard clearing of people. Plus if they do the time slot to ride the attractions once why would they kick people out that are going to be consuming and buying?

 

[fredflintstone]

Everyone is talking about rides, shops and food. I have seen/read where people are getting on the rides and trying the food, but I haven't heard of anyone being able to buy things in the shops. Any info on making purchases? Are they only allowing you to walk in the shop and look, but make no purchases?
