BEWARE! You May Face a Virtual Queue Problem at Magic Kingdom’s Newest Ride

By 1 Comment

Are you planning your next trip to Magic Kingdom?

Cinderella Castle

I bet you’re super excited about everything you’re going to experience like the rides and food. Speaking of rides, think you’ve got a shot at riding Tiana’s Bayou Adventure if you snag a spot in the Virtual Queue? Well, you might need to think again. We recently experienced an issue with the Virtual Queue that left us, and probably many other guests, without a chance to ride – even though we secured a spot in the morning! Here’s what happened and why you’ll want to plan carefully if this ride is on your list.

Um, You Might Want To AVOID This Magic Kingdom Ride Right Now

Last year, Disney opened Tiana’s Bayou Adventure at both Walt Disney World and Disneyland. The attraction, which controversially to some replaced the aging Splash Mountain on both coasts, to great fanfare. However, despite the popularity of the flume attraction, there have definitely been some technological issues with the ride’s reliability, especially its animatronics.

Shortly before the ride opened, Disney wrote that Tiana’s featured “some of Disney’s most advanced Audio-Animatronics figures, and with this new, advanced technology it makes you feel like you’re really interacting with them in the attraction.” Unfortunately, those new highly advanced animatronics are having some issues.

Every Ride That Will Use a Virtual Queue in Disney World in 2025

By 3 Comments

Sometimes you can’t just walk up to a Disney World attraction and get in the queue.

Virtual Queue sign up

If a Disney ride has gone down and the queue has needed to be evacuated, you won’t be able to stand in line to wait (though you can stand around the ride if you’d like, but we don’t recommend that if the Cast Members are hinting that the ride could be down for awhile). However, there are a handful of Disney World rides that have what are called Virtual Queues, and you must enter one of those to be able to ride. If you’re heading to the parks this year and haven’t been in a while, these are the only rides we expect to continue using Virtual Queues this year.

NOBODY Expected This To Happen with Disney’s Virtual Queue in Magic Kingdom

By 2 Comments

Winter is usually NOT the time to be enjoying water rides. Or, at least, many people prefer to stay far away.

Cinderella Castle

While it doesn’t often get freezing cold in Orlando, it does still get chilly in the winter, and many families visiting theme parks don’t want to get soaking wet on a ride. This is why we weren’t totally surprised to see the Tiana’s Bayou Adventure line looking less popular recently, but we WERE surprised to see how long the ride’s Virtual Queue was available!

The PROBLEM with the Year-Long Closure of Big Thunder Mountain Railroad at Magic Kingdom

By Leave a Comment

Major changes are about to hit Disney World.

Magic Kingdom

It was announced that Disney World would be getting eight new rides, which is super exciting, but in order to enjoy these rides, we have to deal with construction. You can expect to see construction in all four parks starting in 2025. Not only does construction mean walls around the parks, but it also means that we can expect lengthy closures, like Big Thunder Mountain’s year-long closure in Magic Kingdom.

Disney Fans Are Saying You Get TOO Wet on Tiana’s Bayou Adventure. We’re Here to Set the Record Straight.

Tiana’s Bayou Adventure is officially open at Disneyland!

Tiana’s Bayou Adventure

The ride opened to everyone on November 15th after previews for Cast Members, Magic Key Holders, and others. The ride is pretty similar to the one that opened at Disney World earlier this year, other than a few key differences. We’ve noticed less empty space or dark rooms on the ride, the ride vehicle is different than at Magic Kingdom, and a few other things are different. One of the biggest differences, though, that we noticed may have a significant impact on the rest of your day in the park.
