Tiana’s Bayou AP Preview?

[WDWDeb]

Does anyone know how long the 1PM VQ was open today?

I know the morning was open for a while but checked at 1:10 and it was gone...wondering if it was seconds or minutes.

I was on right when it ticked over 1pm and it immediately came back as the VQ is closed. Would be curious to know if anyone got a BG at 1. I wonder if they didn't offer any?

You might be right since the morning was so backed up. Also, seems like it's back down again.

And now I'm stuck on the ride

*Update* The ride went down and they will be escorting us off

Oh my!! Keep us updated!!

Not good it's breaking down this often still.

I've heard on Twitter that one of the reasons for the constant breakdowns is that the animatronics are programmed to begin their spiel once they detect that a log is coming vs. the Splash animatronics playing in a constant loop. It does make sense but I think it's also the old ride system. I remember being evacuated from Splash after being stuck on it for over an hour.

I found it odd that they were letting logs go so close together. When the ride stopped I had three logs behind me and they all slammed into each other. It felt like bumper cars

I rode yesterday with the DVC preview and tried my luck at 1pm today for the AP one…I got group 92 right at 1pm so they were distributing them. The ride is currently down now as well. Nobody is in the queue either.

It was like that with Splash too. Sometimes there would be so many logs in front of you on climb to the final drop that it felt like you were in line for gas at Costco.

We are supposed to leave out of town tonight. Currently at all star while kids nap but hoping to get to ride before we leave! Would love any updates if you are there. We are boarding group 85.

I was boarding group 13 and they called me around noon. An hour and a half later the ride went down and is still down

I'm group 64. Initially my estimated callback time was around 11:30am. Now it's at about 5:30pm. We have dinner plans and other things we want to do so sadly I don't think it's in the cards for me today.

UPDATE: BG 64 now has an estimated callback time of 7:10pm lol.

I’ve heard the same thing when they were having issues doing cm previews

Does anybody know how many BGs they actually got through today?

The last boarding group called was 29. Unfortunately we were 33 so we were close, but not close enough before it went down.

I am on the other side of the park have they opened it again?

No. It's still down. They just keep pushing my estimated callback time to later. It was originally 11:30am.

I was boarding group 13 in the same thing kept happening to me. It doesn't really mean anything since the ride is closed.

 

[Smugpugmug]

Ride is open again. They're boarding groups 30-37.
