We were just there a few weeks ago. The wait isn’t nearly as bad as WDW. If you see the wait time at 60mins or less go for it. It will really only be about 30mins. (Thanks for that tip @Jeff_AZ ) we rode in the afternoon on 2 different days with about 20-30 min wait.
I just looked and the trail is open till 4:30pm today. I think it is usually open until dusk, so I assume that means they close it early on party nights.
Correct, only World of Color.
Agreed, the only bad time to get in line for RotR is the first hour the park is open, unless you’re ahead of the pack. If the posted wait is longer than 60 minutes, I recommend coming back another time.
I really like watching by iasw because the crowds are typically lower over there and they also have projections on the facade – more easily viewable than the castle. You miss the flyovers by Tink and Baymax.
Another option is to watch from in front of Rivers of America. They have a water screen where they show the projections.
I totally missed this question!! I recommend trying to see Baymax fly. I was blown away with how cool it is.
We camped out for about an hour our first night right at the point where Main Street ends and the hub begins. It got a little crowded there but I still had a pretty good view of the castle.
Our last night we hopped from DCA around 9:00 and just walked to where the back of the crowd was. More space and we still saw Baymax and the blue fairy great! I think the projections are better on Main Street. Maybe because of the flat surface.
Well, right now it’s Halloween Screams not Wondrous Journeys, so no Baymax or Blue Fairy. Not sure if there is a flyover in the Halloween show, but plan to watch it tonight, so will let you know.
Last year they did not have the Redwood Creek Challenge Trail open during the day while it was set up as Villain’s Grove. I can check that out too, but I would not count on it being open despite what the app or website says.
They’re only doing FW on the weekend. Zero flies with FW not when projection only (M-Th, unless holiday). You do get the balloon of Jack & other characters on the castle you miss if you’re not in the Hub or MS.
It’s interesting that BayMax and Blue Fairy were flying with projections only last February, but no Zero with projections now. I was very disappointed.
I wonder why too. I thought he would fly, but he didn’t, when I was there for projections. If anyone does see Zero fly on a projections night, I’d like to know.
