Friends tells me 150 minutes. Everyone is at mine train, rest of park is walk ons.
Yeah people with big or long legs may be uncomfortable. My knees were jammed in the metal lap bar. Very smooth ride! You do get some nice speed at points. Sign says 2 hours but has to be longer, line is wrapping around the ride. We're walking onto other rides. Anna and Elsa is 2 hours already though.
Here is a look at the over-flow queue

Yikes, can't imagine the overflow once FP+ is involved.

Finally rode, and it's definitely a cute attraction. It does feel short though, and I agree that it's uncomfortable if you have longer legs. I heard some people on my train asking, "that's it?", with the response being that it's a kiddie ride. Doesn't really explain the lack of show scenes, though (and it was difficult to see much of the cottage scene because of my position on the train, and I wasn't even in the back).
It was worth doing once, and I'd say it's a step up from SWSA. Worth the hype (or potentially 2-3 hour waits)? Not really.

If you see my previous comment to George, I asked if he thought no soft openings should have occurred instead. I only asked. He never said that. I never said that either. What I said was that we, as guest, can not be upset about riding a ride that's isn't open. That's it.

Well the ride seems to be open so we all can move on to talk about bigger and better things.

Does anyone know how long the soft opening is going to last? Won't be to park until later

Your biggest concern sounds like possibly technical closures and them giving up for the rest of the day. All hints have pointed to running all day if possible.. and opening right at park open seems to support those hints.

I read a story on chipandco.com yesterday that said it would open for 8 hours today. Not sure how official that is but that's all i have heard.
They had some of the interactive queue switchback sections blocked off this morning. Without FP they were having trouble keeping the standby line moving.
