Yes, I saw the FastPass line and they will also have single rider but the CM said that Single rider may not be very fast. Since there are so many seats in a row, they can usually fit the families in pretty well without singleton seats left open for the single rider line....we'll see if this really is true once they open.

Soarin' is a simulated handgliding adventure over various locations. Basically you enter a theatre and there is three rows of seats each row having three sections with ten seats or so. The seats are similar to a chairlift in the fact there is no floor and they are suspended from above. There is a simple seat belt restraint. Once seated the lights turn off and the panel above your head lowers and you are lifted up in the same way as a ferris wheel so you are infront of huge IMAX screen.

Here is a photograph from http://ww.themeparks.com which shows the ride system model

When I was at DCA 2 years ago, they opened Soarin' to riders before the rest of the park opened. For example, if park opening was 10 am, they let people through the turnstiles into the front part of the park at 9:30, for a 10 am "rope drop." But folks "in the know" knew that Soarin' let people ride right at 9:30. Any hope of something like this at Epcot?
