We had been planning our visit to the park for several months, eagerly anticipating the moment. Arriving at the park at 10:30 in the morning, we smoothly went through the registration process, which pleased us. We had purchased our tickets online, priced at $169 per person on January 2nd. Be attentive – online ticket purchases don't provide an express feature. While the park was clean inside, the overall infrastructure appeared quite dated for the considerable amount charged per person. There's room for significant improvement!
The vast queues for attractions were disheartening. For instance, the wait for Avatar exceeded three hours, and nearly two hours for the River Avatar. Even with an express ticket, don't assume immediate access; you'll still find yourself standing in line. Restaurants had daunting queues too. The safari ride left us disappointed, with a wait time exceeding 90 minutes and a sparse population of animals, rendering the park seemingly empty and unengaging.
If you believe the dinosaur attraction is captivating, think twice. After enduring a two-hour wait, the interior reveals very little of interest – it's dimly lit, and visibility of the few dinosaurs is quite poor.
The park left a highly negative impression; the price did not align with the experience. Consider twice before visiting this park. I would describe this place as a disappointment rather than an amusement.

I was so excited to ride this as I had heard so many great reviews, but I am really disappointed in the execution. The line wasn’t too bad (60 minutes on a Sunday afternoon), but still too long to wait for this ride in my opinion. It felt like lazy ride making with the entire ride stationed in front of one screen. It felt like those motorcycle simulator rides you can ride for $2 at an arcade. Very disappointing.
The views were cool & the seat pulsing like a breathing banshee was cool but overall, the ride is way overhyped with little to no actual “ride” to experience- it was more like a 4D movie. The rooms that you walk through in line were the coolest part, which should never be the case.
I think Disney had the chance to do some really cool with this ride and absolutely dropped the ball.
Pros:
Cool views, unique seating on the rideCons:
Underwhelming, stationary “ride”, short experience.Reviewed by Anonymous Review Date: 03/28/2023

I rode this for the first time during Princess Weekend, and I'm not a fan. I don't normally get motion sick from 3D rides, and am fine with Star Tours, Remy, and even non-3D rides like GotG. I think the setup is what affected me the most. I felt my face was way too close to the screen, messing with my perspective, and I didn't like the vehicle or restraints. I didn't really mind the back safety bar, but the front safety bar hit me in the solar plexus and I had to take short quick breathes. I also can't stand air in my face and really could've done without it blasting. I know it's part of the flying simulation, but I couldn't stand it.
Pros:
Beautiful sceneryCons:
Too close to the 3D screen, jerkyReviewed by Anonymous Review Date: 12/14/2022

It was OK...it is just a big screen going no where. It is NOT a coastar or spectacular ride in anyway. The 3D effects are fine - I assume you could get from any 3D visor they sell at Best Buy.
Here us the break down:
30 min que - 5/10
45min que - 4/10
60min que - 3/10
2.5hr que - 0/10
We tried paying for fast passes and did ....what a rip off mess -- you can't get in their system....every ride must be booked and timed on line -- the system then randomly cancels your reservations for unknown reasons. Disney has become a total RIP OFF - they make you mad, angry and very frustrated. Steal all your money...and make you rip roaring angry and frustrated. And this is supposed to be a holiday ??
Pros:
a few minutes if nice sceneryCons:

I was really excited to ride this for the first time but actually I was disappointed. My main problem was that I was very restricted. I think the bar came to close, and it hurt my back. I'm a small person by the way. It was cool that you could feel the banshee breathing. The 3d effect did make me feel a bit nauseous. My family weren't keen on it either and we got up early to rope drop this ride.
Pros:
Lovely sceneryCons:

Okay, so I know that this is a hot take. And I don't think what I'm about to say applies to most people getting on this ride. But I got completely overwhelmed to the point of meltdown. It barely qualifies as a simulation ride because of the extreme range of movement its does. I'm not a thrill ride person and I have sensory issues and this was honestly worse than some more \"thrilling rides\" FOR Me. Technically its beautiful and I don't wanna diss on it. But if you get sensory overwhelm approach with caution. Its loud, with overstimulating graphics, 4d effects smells.
Pros:
its a beautiful technological masterpieceCons:

Imagery was great but it made me super sick. I don’t get all the hype honestly. My entire family didn’t enjoy this one. My husband was very uncomfortable in the seat and felt very restricted. My son was overwhelmed and panicky. For us it wasn’t worth the wait at all and we would more than likely wouldn’t ride this one again even with no wait
Pros:
Beautiful imageryCons:

I loved this movie and really like everything leading up to the actual ride. I think that the wait is too long and maybe they could have set this ride up more like soarin' but soarin' also had a long wait at time. I was really disappointed in the clarity of the screen during the ride. I would have thought the clarity would have to be almost crystal clear but in reality I had a very fuzzy experience. Was it the theater I was in??? I enjoyed the Navi River Journey over Flight of Passage.
