Those guys dont know what they have missed.
are the people on this site the only ones who don't run right for Soarin' at park opening? I agree that while it's a good attraction, definitely never worth a 70-80 minute wait...nor would I wait in that line like cattle going into a slaughter house..
I would much rather ride Test Track (even in it's current condition) right at park opening.
:sohappy::sohappy::sohappy::sohappy: I miss Horizons sooo much!!!sheep....more like sheeple...i think soarin is a great attraction but im so baffled as to why it is a "must do" i feel like it doesnt even embody what epcot was originally all about. the thing that i enjoy most is the orange smell because it brings me back to horizons.
^ This.I always run to soarin as soon as I got to Epcot to get a fast pass. If you do standby on Soarin, you'll never get on.

I like how the CMs are guiding everyone towards Soarin'. What if I was headed to Living with the Land instead?
I've been a part of the herd a couple of times, but it was because I took people who had never been on the ride before and I wanted to make sure they didn't spend all day in line. If I can't get a FP for Soarin' I wont ride it that day, unless the line is very short. Its just not worth waiting an hour for a four minute ride.
Why do some majorly hyped attractions turn into that mob scene (add Test Track to that list), and others are ghost towns a year or so after opening? (i.e., Mission: SPACE)
Personally I think Soarin' is a lot more enjoyable than M:S, but I'd take either of them over TT. They all feature unique or advanced technology, and they all had the full force of Disney marketing as "can't miss, blow you away experiences" when they opened. So what accounts for the difference in lines?
I think that Mission: Space killing a few folks dampened it's potential popularity.Why do some majorly hyped attractions turn into that mob scene (add Test Track to that list), and others are ghost towns a year or so after opening? (i.e., Mission: SPACE)

If they put the FP machines at the entrance of the pavilion, they would most likely run out faster than they do already. Plus, it would create an even bigger traffic jam with people trying to get into the pavilion and those stopping for a FP.

And yes I know there were pre-existing conditions but that is irrelevant to the general public.
i completely agree!! don't understand what the huge deal is about it. to me the best part is the take off. other than that it's just another simulator rideUgh, let them go for it...less people while I enjoy Epcot. My honest opinion about Soarin is that it's never worth a wait more than 20 minutes
thank you thank you thank you !!!! Finally someone else agrees with my opinion. I really think fp sucks!! Eventhough i use it.i'd like to call them sheep, but frankly, between fastpass and disney's marketing, it's not these peoples' fault. If they want to ride the attraction without spending forever in line, they have to join the cattle train. Exhibit #127 of why fastpass sucks.
So thats two of you that are mental
