Park Reservations & Virtual Queue Required

A virtual queue will be in place for Annual Passholder previews of Tiana's Bayou Adventure. Here's how it works.

First, make a park reservation to Magic Kingdom park on a preview date to have the opportunity to join the 7:00 am virtual queue for that day. Or, you can make a park reservation to any theme park on a preview date to have the opportunity to join the 1:00 pm virtual queue.

On the date of your reservation, request to join the virtual queue by using the My Disney Experience app. There will be 2 opportunities to join each day of previews.

The 7:00 am virtual queue will be available to Passholders with a park reservation to Magic Kingdom park for that day.

The 1:00 pm virtual queue will be available to Passholders with a park reservation to any theme park for that day. As a reminder, Passholders must enter the theme park where they have a reservation prior to visiting Magic Kingdom park. Or, on June 13, 14, 17, 18 or 20, they can enter Magic Kingdom park without a reservation after 2:00 PM.

Passholders do not need to have entered a theme park when they request to join the virtual queue.

Important Information

Passholders must have a Walt Disney World Resort Annual Pass with valid admission on the preview date. Applicable pass blockout dates apply. Park reservations are limited and subject to availability.

Each Passholder can request to join a virtual queue no more than once per day.

Passholders may hold boarding groups for the preview virtual queue and an attraction virtual queue at the same time, when available.

Joining the virtual queue does not guarantee the ability to participate in the preview. Boarding groups for a virtual queue are limited, subject to availability and are not guaranteed. Not all boarding groups may be called to return, based on availability of the attraction. Learn more about virtual queues.

Offering, dates and hours are subject to change or cancellation without notice or liability

They reskinned a jet to celebrate the reskin of an attraction where a Fox threatened to skin a rabbit.

Again, I don't get what your point is. Disney is a for profit publicly traded company. Everything decision is done for the benefit of the company/Disney. The officers of any company have fiduciary duty to make all decision in the best interest of the company. The sole purpose of any decision of a company is to benefit the company. They aren't non-profits or charities where the intended goal/purpose is to benefit a certain subset of the population. Guest/fan feelings are never a goal or why companies make decisions. They are a fulcrum to support goals. Businesses offer guest what the they want in order to make money. They don't make money in order to give customers what they want.

I know that just by posting this I'm stepping into a minefield, but I genuinely do not remember seeing any complaints, or hearing of any complaints, about Splash Mountain being problematic before 2020. At most, I saw people say "Hey, isn't it kind of funny that they built an attraction based on this movie they banned?" but I don't think any of those were meant as complaints.

Most of what Disney does nowadays is mostly done based on what looks good on paper.

Disstevefan110 hours ago

Can you please talk to Disney's movie business ;) OK, ok, "nothing" is an absurd term. Extreme terms like "nothing" is low hanging fruit for folks who want to argue. In my opinion, Disney makes decisions mostly for Disney and lesser for guest/fans.

From a strictly authorization standpoint, of course Disney does what it wants to do. Every business does what it wants to do at the end of the day, guest/fans have no say in an operation of any business. However to say guest/fans have nothing to do with decisions is just absurd. Disney is looking for Profit. That means decisions are made to increase profits. This can come in the form of direct increase in sales, direct decrease in costs, or increasing attendance/mitigating loss through customer good will. Out of those 3 methods to achieve the goal, 2 of them are directly related to customers. You need your customers to keep coming and buying tickets to the parks and need them to continue buying things. The only way of increasing profit that isn't directly related to customers is decreasing costs, but even that has to be weighed with the idea of will decreasing cost result in a loss of 1 or 3. And the millions spent on a re-skin of Splash Mountain certainly wasn't a direct cost saving.

You can drill back on my post and I said this way before the reskin happened - I never said it was on a whim, Disney had THEIR reasons, I will attempt to guess; number one, social justice, perhaps the old animatronics and systems were getting too expensive to fix and maintain, no spare parts, must have replacement parts custom made etc. I really think they decided to expend huge dollars in labor, materials, engineering costs, to kill two birds; lower maintenance in the long run (that appears to be NOT working at the moment) and social justice. My main point of this post is, Disney does what they want to do. Their decision has nothing to do with their guests or fans. If there are guests who happen to like a given change it is pure coincidence.

Wait wait wait. I am confused, is Disney a greedy corporation who is out just to make the maximum amount of money, or are they not? So your saying WDW took down a ride that was operating fine and people were riding. Decided to expend huge dollars in labor, materials, engineering costs just because? They SPENT millions of dollars...on a whim? It wasn't to make money? And lets face it its only guests and fans that pay money so if they are, its for something they want. So WDW didn't look at any data/studies and say if we do this replacement, it will result in customers wanting things enough to pay/attendance/ect? Your story is they just WOKE up on a Tuesday (get it....WOKE up, come on its funny and almost Friday) and decided to spend millions of dollars for nothing?
