Original Poster
My favorite (and one of the most informative Disney website)...."Deb's Unofficial" has posted brand new photos of the "Soarin'" attraction.

It's a sneak preview worth checking out! I can't wait to go in person....our trip is in June! Is should be operating on Fastpass by then!

Here's the link:

the queue's logistics don't look good, but the theming looks great. those CM outfits are perfect. we're going to the preview this weekend, and I can't wait to see it myself.

^^I don't think the queue will be a mess. If I have my orientation right, the far right lane is Standby. It is a bit wider than older queue lines, but about the right size they need to be nowadays to be wheelchair accessible. There are many queues (especially newer ones) that are about this wide and have not been a problem. I know the Philharmagic and parts of Mission Space queues seem extra wide in spots. It was also probably made a bit wider to accomadate as many people as possible. Even though the queue is very long, they really need to make sure it doesn't pour out into the Land pavilion. If that happens, it could be a big problem. People just need to stay in their places. The two far left lanes are then Fastpass and Single Riders, respectively.

The queue looks very nice. I also don't see the problem with the logo. Its simplistic, yet modern. The original DCA one has more substance, but the new logo looks nice. Especially the way they have integrated the "flying hanglider" along the walls in the first part of the queue.

After further consideration, I agree it isn't that bad. I'm just thinking about the attraction POSTER, as it's the same overall design. :D

They queue won't be to bad, it looks the same as California Adventure and that has been running for a long time now. If it had problems I am sure they would be corrected here.

Your right... (I know wheel chairs.. and this queue is perfect for them... That way you dont have "wheel chair entrance" and those who try to cheat wait... and those who dont cheat.. can still see the queue...)

Wha? The two queues are completely different, except maybe for the part after the blue room (which isn't pictured).

Sorry, I was meaning width wise... I am not sure about length although I know the California Adventure version has a really long queue and it appears Florida's is even longer.

The queue is so long, but it is nice to have a totally indoor queue.

Here! Here!

I agree. Let's practice this everywhere!

Let's start back at the MK...with say... Peter Pan!

Do the cars lift on top of each other? They seem to be side by side at EPCOT from the pic.

It's hard to explain, but they go up and forward. Best way to explain is like a reverse grage door. Right now the seats are in the "grage door open" position, then when initiated, the cars go up and out, like a grage door inverted. Get it?

Eh, oh well, ride it and it will ALL make sense!

Definately an impressive queue. Simple, but VERY impressive. I didn't think it would be nearly that nice. I'd say I'll be spending alot of time in the FAR left lane (Single Rider Line).
