Virtual Submarine Ride?

[Tinkaboo]

I’ve heard that there is an option to view the ride without actually going on it, as a DAS option. What is this like? How do you access it ? Is it worth it? I’ve never liked the confinement of the subs plus with COVID, not sure I want to be locked in that small of an area. TIA for your thoughts and feedback!

I did it once, just for the experience. You just ask a cast member for it. I assume it is still running, but am not sure. there is ample room, and you just see the show on a screen. I would rather go in the sub, but if you can’t it’s worthwhile. You might share the time with another family.

Up and running as of our trip two weeks ago.

Yup...just ask for the "Observation Deck"...also a great hack if you just wanna kick back in a room with a seat and Air Condoning for a few minutes!

It's a room with a large TV screen. It kind of feels like a pre show room.

Sounds interesting, appreciate the info!

I did that when my family rode Nemo because I'm claustrophobic. I just asked a CM about the observation deck when we got in line and they took me over. It's a little room with a big tv & you're watching what the people in the subs see. When I did it I was the only person in there. I ended up leaving early because the room still felt too small for me personally. I met up with my family after the ride as they came off the exit.

Its a well themed room, kinda fun. Nice break from the heat!

There is a video that shows the experience on YouTube. I don’t know if you want the spoilers so I wont post here.

Can anyone ask for the Observation Deck or do you a need a DAS pass?

 

[Malcon10t]

Anyone can request it. I get it when I want to do the ride as I can't do stairs.

Also ... ask the CM at the entrance (don't get in the regular line) if there is no one in there they will just have you go over and they will seat you immediately.
