Pixie Dust is in full effectI know it's a long shot, but there is a tiny little bit in me that's still holding out the slightest amount of hope to have a soft opening this thanksgiving. Im a dreamer though!
to all the experts out there....what do you think the realistic chances (All Joking aside) that this will be up and running by mid to late March? I was just discussing this with the wife and she gave the OK for me to book a quick 3 day trip at that time so we can check it out. If we don't make this then we won't get to see it until Fall of 2015 when we go back for our normal full blown vacation. Please give me good news because I really want an excuse to get back to the world.

You would have to be snorting that Pixie Dust to think that. It is moving much faster lately, but a soft opening in 4 weeks is in no way possible. February seems like a good goal for softe openings and a grand opening maybe around Easter Break (Late April). This will satisify the two major crowd groupings in the Spring time and will allow for marketing in hyping during the Christmas Day parade and the early 2014 "Disney Side" campaign.Pixie Dust is in full effect

If anyone were to 'plan a trip' around this two minute 'family friendly' coaster opening, I'd say they were crazy. I'm looking forward to having this done so that they area is finally complete, but beyond that, no great anticipation for this coaster. Send me to Gringots instead.I think there is a good chance it will be open by March, but DON'T plan a trip around that. Even if Disney plans to have it open by then you never know what can go wrong between now and then.
A long three years......Who knows , its only been 3 years.
I have 2 more trips before my AP runs out, so I hope they have it finished before then. Who knows , its only been 3 years.
Actually, it's only been under construction for 2 years.

Upon looking at those pictures what are all the pathway's for, meet and greets maybe? I know the one on the far right is for the que even so its curious. maybe there will be some surprises for us in store? Also I don't know where this photo is from I just googled mine train concept art and it showed up.naw this thing has gotta be in spring, after the exterior they have 2 show scenes to do, then all of the foliage which from the concept art seems to be A LOT. But I can't wait for it to be done, then that terrible fake log scrim underneath the bridge by the be our guest resturant will be gone and water will flow from the mine train to the BOG area.
I don't think most of us would plan a special trip just to ride it, and that wasn't what @danlb_2000 said. However, I think most of us will reserve judgment until after we ride it.If anyone were to 'plan a trip' around this two minute 'family friendly' coaster opening, I'd say they were crazy.
