The latest on Soarin' opening?

[MainMom]

We will be in WDW June 4-12. Last I read Soarin' was scheduled to be open. Then I think I read it was pushed back. What is the latest update?

Thank you!

It will reopen the same day Tiffin's opens at Animal Kingdom, FPs for Rivers of Light become available, booking starts for Rivers of Light Dining Packages, and the Frozen attractions in Epcot debut.

That day? Well, it's called "no one has any clue, and Disney's website is of little assistance".

I believe there has been a name change .... Rumors of Light.

It was stated in the rumor section that the new movie would open June 17ish but it could open sooner with the old film.....

Yep. Shanghai has an exclusive deal where the new film must debut there. It's supposed to debut in Epcot and DCA on the 17th. It's been said from a few sources that the ride will open sooner though with the old film before the switch over.

From who?

Touring plans.

Everywhere else says summer 2016

I haven't seen anything about July 1st. Everything I've seen is June 17th. July 1st is likely a guess on their part.

Slightly , but has there been any mention of old film in one theatre and new one in other two? I'd really miss that old film and smells if they retired it!
