News Tiana's Bayou Adventure Virtual Queue and Lighting Lane status

[Disstevefan1]

Three days including today until Tiana opens to the public on 28, right?

How is Tiana's running?

Are there many pauses/stoppages?

 

[Kristamouse]

Here right now and there is what looks to be a queue
Who is getting on today, 6/25?
Who do I need to sleep with to get on?
Also, It looks more like broccoli in personn

It’s aimed at a certain poster here who insists that AP holders are freeloading degenerates who bring in their own food, take up table space to eat said food, don’t spend a dime in the parks, and take up premium viewing spots for parades and evening shows over the families from Denver who spend copious amounts of money. All made up delusions by that particular poster.

Ahhh, as with any generalization or speaking in absolutes, it is likely to be misleading. I can speak for myself as an AP... travel from middle of the country, always spend $ on hotel and spend what feels like copious amounts $ on food.
...and I still didn't get to ride...
See you in Nov, when I'll be staying on property and spending $ with a couple non AP's in tow buying park tickets.. and food.

Same here. We've dropped an untold amount of money over the past 2 decades during the times we've been AP holders.

I just like to make fun of the non-US resident who thinks APs should be banned due to their erroneous and delusional assumptions about AP holders.

I am a local AP. I live 4 miles, 10 minutes to the parks, so I go nearly every day. I don't have to spend on hotel or food. I didn't get to ride due to missing out on MK reservations, but I've made more MK reservations for after 28th, when reservations are all open. I am getting on that ride sooner or later.
I used to travel 2000 miles to WDW every year and spend $$$. I used to look at the locals with burning envy. Now I look at the tourists with great understanding, empathy, and compassion.

Just so everyone knows - There is NO truth to the rumors that Annual Passholders where throwing homemade peanut butter and jelly sandwiches that they brought into the parks with them both into the water and at safety sensors inside TBA during the AP previews in protest of only getting 6 preview days plus having to use a virtual queue like commoners.

VQ is now showing in MDE for opening at 7am.

 

[gerarar]

Tiana's Bayou Adventure is now showing in the VQ API backend, and with that also inside the VQ interface in the MDE app.

Edit: oops just saw the previous post that reported it also!

 

[wdwmagic]

Near instant virtual queue at capacity as expected.

 

[gerarar]

7am drop lasted for 2.440 secs.
Friday 7am Drop Average: 24m -> 12m (-12m)

BG's 1-10 called at 7:55am as part of the initial wave.

 

[gerarar]

Interesting effect today.

The Tron VQ lasted nearly 30 secs this morning, most likely due to majority of guests trying for TBA. Once TBA ran out immediately, they all switched over to Tron to grab whatever was left.

 

[gerarar]

Also if I'm reading this correctly, by around 7:10am (confirmed to be gone by 7:01am), the Genie+ lightning lane allotment is completely booked for the day?

Edit: According to ThrillData, G+ LL's also sold out in seconds!

I’m assuming they limit you to one VQ at a time even though it’s the same park?

Correct, you are only able to hold one VQ/BG spot at a time.

Whoa.

That's right, folks! Unless you've had your head stickin' out of a window, you know those boarding groups just released and sold out in 2 seconds flat!

 

[IanDLBZF]

First boarding groups have been called as of 7:55 AM. Groups one through six.

 

[gerarar]

The ride has opened on time today for its grand opening! BG's 1-10 at 7:55am.

 

[Fido Chuckwagon]

Near instant virtual queue at capacity as expected.

G+ LL’s disappeared instantly as well. I clicked right at 7 am, and a slightly slower connection speed I guess, so it was full. I was able to back forth refresh my way into it for 4:15-5:15 though. Hoping it stays open today!

It wasn’t 7:01 am for G+ filling it up. It was like 7:00:20 at most with a few stragglers popping back up as i guess people released for the next minute.
