Stitch's Great Escape

[Soarin2Disney]

Can anybody tell me how the lines were at Stitches Great Escape? I am leaving on july 23-31 and heard mixed opinions about the ride, but I would like to know if and when they run out of fast passes, and how long the average stand by is. Thanks

We just got back and at times we saw Stitch at 90 plus minutes. I think on our last day at noon the fast pass was up to 7p. At night after Wishes the stand by line was only about 15 minutes. So either go really early or really late. Although not one of my favorite rides I would never wait more than 15 minutes for Stitch. Hope that helps!

What are come reason's you dont like it. A lot of people said that they didnt like it because is was Alien Encounter with Stitch, but i loved Alien Encounter. So are there other reasons you dont like it?

We were there last week, first thing in the am and we only had to wait about 10 minutes. I wouldn't waste my time and wait any longer then that for this ride. I rode with my 13 ds.

Why didn't we like it? It just seems like it's missing something. I don't know if the shoulder thingy wasn't on me correctly, but I didn't get the effect of whatever Stitch was doing. My ds thought the animitronics were cool, and they were and Stitch is silly as usual which is fun, but as a "ride" it's really lacking.

It's fun to see once and after that I wouldn't waste my time.

I don't think they should have made it so scary for kids. YOu knew AE was geared toward adults but you hear Stitch and they want to go. I didn't go this trip because my 4 yr won't go on but my 6 and 8 yr old love it. My dh said their was some new phrases Stitch said. Good luck.

We were at MK twice during out recent trip (7/10-7/17) and both times the lines for Stitch were very long by the time we made it over to this attraction. By mid-day the fastpass time was after 7:00 and we didn't want to tie up a fast pass window for this ride so we missed it. The stand-by said 60 min. once and 90 min. later but the line never seemed to move much when we were coming in and out of Buzz. We would have liked to seen it, at least once, since we were there but families we met at Fantasmic were very disappointed in it. The kids chose to skip it rather than miss other things.

Definitely go there early in the day, as close to opening as possible, or wait until the evening parade or fireworks is going on and that should make the wait time much more manageable.

Good luck.

My 6 year old really didn't like it because it wasn't a "ride" - boring in her words. It wasn't scary at all to my 3 yr old - she liked it really. I didn't find it scary - just disappointing since they could have done so much with Stitch. We only had a 5 minute wait - I wouldn't wait more than 10-15 for it.

Hope this helps.

I was able to preview Stitch before it was open to the public and it was cute for what it is worth. I LOVED AE and yes it was scary. I think if your child is afraid of the dark this attraction can still be a bit scary. Stitch talks in your ear and burps and says silly things. If you only have to wait a short amount of time 15- 30 minutes I would give it a try. Especially if your kids or you like Stitch. You have to at least try it once. I will be going on it again this Aug.

Some tips/opinions from me!

Tips
-get a fast pass early in the day
-ride early in the day
-fast passes tend to run out on this attraction early
-if you ( or a child) is afraid of the 'effects' then don't let the shoulder rest touch you then you won't feel all the effects...( i don't personally do this but i read it somewhere)
-sitting in the way front is not good you have to strain to see everything

Opinions
-i really enjoyed this attraction i thought it was fun
-if you have little kids who are expecting the nice friendly stitch warn them!
- i like all the effects and it is a cool attraction a must see at least once per trip
- a ninety minute wait is not worth it....90 minutes for anything is too long for me (just call me an impatient teen i guess ) so try and grab a fastpass
-i like this ride i know some people disagree but it's still fun!

hope this helped some
