Trip Planning... 2017 Avatar Land

[Disfan1968]

Just looking ahead a bit in terms of my next trip. Taking into account that things at WDW rarely open "on time" (e.g. see the current thread on ROL) is Disney still claiming Avatarland will open "sometime in 2017" or has that been pushed back at this point?

No official announcement yet.

I hope it's open for 2017 spring break trip (end of April), but I have a feeling it won't be.

Aiming for April 2017

To avoid disappointment, as a rule don't plan a trip based around opening of a specific ride, at least not if you are going to try and make it within the first few weeks. If you really want to see Avatar, consider going Fall 2017, or even 2018. That will give crowds a little time to die down, kinks to be worked out, and ensure you get in.
