45 minutes.they start lining people up on the left side of the walkway if you are looking at Tree of Life. Look for the masking tap.
Is arriving around your start time OK? I'm not looking to need a FP for FOP or anything just want to experience and see the land. But I can't get there until close to my start time. I hope that's OK

We walked in at a few mins after our start time on Saturday and still got on FoP (even with the FP confusion with the rain).
If you don't care at all about FoP, there's no rush whatsoever.

Why is Flight of Passage being compared to Forbidden Journey? They're VERY different rides. Just don't understand why everything has to be compared. Each one can stand on their own, no? FJ is a bit more than just a simulator.

Forbidden Journey is the best ride in O-town so that's why. And they are both mainly screen based. I was very very impressed with FOP but I didn't have the same feeling as I did After getting off FJ.

I missed all the queue. I guess it was slow today.... I was impressed by FOP much so, but is it hands down better than Forbidden Journey? I think not.

Overall the land is unbelievable and the Singing Shaman AA looks even more impressive in person. For someone who doesn't really like the movie it was pretty damn awesome.

Yeah I put it above FJ.... granted if you like set based rides obviously FJ will always be better. But from an unbiased look based off the innovation and the feel yeah I enjoy it better. But than again....its still a simulator.

Right, but the movement is nothing compared to FJ. Kuka arm still rules current tech for rides imo.

I don't get it, they are entirely different types of rides A much better comparison is the Simpsons Ride.

Asking for a friend who is going down tomorrow. Are annual pass holders the only ones who ever get let in to these preview periods? Do they ever open it up more widely? Thanks!

Is that because of an emotional attachment to the source material? That may be in play here.

Can't say it is. I haven't seen a HP movie or read one of the books.

Don't get me wrong. I really really thought this attraction was top notch, but I just left feeling like something was missing. I think the ending is what bothered me come to think of it. Very anti climatic.

Doesn't look like it. I spoke to a couple that said they have been begging the last two days.

I haven't experienced FoP yet, but from a sheer quality standpoint is it better than Gringotts? I absolutely buy that it's not as good as Forbidden Journey.
