AK questions for those that have visited since Pandora opened...

You can track it in MDE... but when we looked it was 120 the vast majority of the day. AK is not a full day park for us so we did not ever spend afternoons there. It dropped to under 60 sometimes at about 8:30-9pm for some reason when we were there and when I looked another day.
I ended up going Saturday, line posted was 110 mins at 240pm. I was on and off the ride in 90 mins. My queue started right before heading inside to the cave, maybe 15 people before that. So, as a benchmark it seems that getting "out" of the outside queue leaves you at a little over an hour wait, assuming everything is up and running and there are no delays.

We were there 2 weeks ago. No lines to enter Pandora, but both of the attractions were typically 90-120 minute waits during the day. Late night EMHs were definitely our friend, though even at midnight we never saw a line shorter than 40-60 minutes. I highly recommend waiting in the FoP queue because the theming is EXCELLENT. River Journey's queue is not nearly as immersive, so definitely a better FP+ choice. Rivers of Light is not worth a FP+ since there is ample stadium seating and standing room. We slipped in at the last minute and were amazed at how many empty seats there were! It's a beautiful show, just don't go into it expecting a huge revelation in nighttime entertainment.
 
We were there the first week of June and did not have to wait to get in to Pandora at all. It was quite busy and the lines for FOP was really long ..two hours or more....the Na'Vi River was 90 minutes....we had dining reserved seating for ROL but all the other rides were not crowded. We went back to AK 4 times during our stay and the weekends seemed to be more crowded and the rain drove some people out early so when we were there during the night EMH's the wait didn't seem that bad. Having fast passes was really a help ...I highly recommend staying on property just to be able to book FP+ 60 days out.

Went to AK several times last week. There wasn't a line to get into Pandora itself. The dust has settled, so to speak.

The line for FOP was rarely ever less than 90 minutes. I checked often, even when we were at other parks. We ended up waiting in standby for 1:45, which is an hour longer than I've ever waited for an attraction, and it was totally worth it.

We got to AK at an 8:00am rope drop one day, and 90% of the people went to Pandora. We walked onto Everest 4 times, and it was still no more than a 5 minute wait. The rest of the park felt abandoned until about 10:00am.
