AVATAR land - the specifics

[Alektronic]

I'm sorry if this has already been answered, but will FOP have a single-rider queue? Thanks in advance....

Did they design the queue for a single rider line? - YES

Will they staff and use the single rider line? That is up to Operations, they may only open during busy periods, or leave it open all the time, or they could close it all together.

 

[Alektronic]

Yes, 8 seats per section, 6 sections per theater.

Yes, but they load each level separately, Ride Levels 1, 2, or 3 and each one has 16 seats, during the pre-show in the GMR you are assigned a seat 1 -16 and you stand on your number in both pre-show rooms.

i wonder if a particular row matters on FOP
because it does on Soarin...

It doesn't matter, all 3 levels will have the same view, you won't see people in the other levels like in Soarin'

 

[Alektronic]

I often wonder how far out you will be thrust into the open space to be encompassed by the screen. That sense of suspension is something that I like about Soarin'.

Like I said before, you are not thrust out into the screen, there is totally different axis that you move around on, and there is a lot more movement than Soarin, you would be really surprised how movement is really involved, but when it is synched with the movie, it is really smooth.

So there will be no distortion if you are off to the sides like Soarin?

Not much that I can tell, everyone is angled into the center of the screen. I'm sure there is some but I didn't focus in on that., but I haven't seen the final rendering either.

I guess I will just have to wait until I ride it. I still struggle to see what happens once it starts and you are sitting on that cycle type seat. I was imagining that doors open in front of you and the seats are moved out into the open space that is enshrouded by the large screen.

That sounds so cool. Thanks for the info!

I'm assuming it will be this way for awhile, especially since resort guests had a head start.
I feel bad for those who were not able to get in to the AP preview events.

Thank you so much for you insight @Alektronic , it's always great when you pass along any info.
