TRON Lightcycle Run will continue to operate during limited hours this week during the soft opening period at Walt Disney World's Magic Kingdom.

Operating hours for TRON Lightcycle Run on Tuesday, March 21, are 9am to 6pm.

TRON Lightcycle Run overview

Based on today, expect the 7am and 1pm TRON virtual queue to reach capacity in around 4 seconds.

If you are prepared to pay for Lightning Lane access, it is likely that you will have to be a resort guest, and the full allocation will sell out before day guests can make a Lightning Lane purchase when Magic Kingdom opens.

You're completely right. Idk how it slipped to me that TBA will be opening around that time. :D Of course there's still a small probability that Tron may keep its VQ, but very unlikely.

Well, June is the approximate time frame when Tiana's Bayou Adventure will be open, so this year MK should be busier than June last year, I would think. The other consideration is that once it opens, will Tron even have a VQ any longer? Probably not. The VQ will probably shift to Tiana assuming it is open to the general public and no longer in a preview period. Sounds like people are reporting the preview period will be starting June 9, we just don't know how long it will last. Once it officially opens, at that point, a regular standby queue should be available for Tron so for anyone wanting a night ride, they can just walk up shortly before the park closes. But for mid-June, I would have to guess the Tron VQ and ILL will still be active.
