Posted: Tuesday May 14, 2024 10:01am ET by WDWMAGIC Staff

Disney Park Pass Reservations are now at capacity for the early previews of Tiana's Bayou Adventure at Magic Kingdom.

As of 10:00 am and just an hour after becoming available, June 13, 14, 16, and 17 are now at capacity, leaving only two dates available on June 18 and 20.

To participate in the Tiana's Bayou Adventure previews, Passholders must make a park reservation and join a virtual queue on the day of the preview via the My Disney Experience app, with opportunities to join at 7:00 am and 1:00 pm each day.

For Passholders without a reservation for Magic Kingdom, note that the 1:00 pm virtual queue will be available to Passholders with a park reservation to any theme park for that day. Passholders must enter the theme park where they have a reservation prior to visiting Magic Kingdom park. Or, on June 13, 14, 17, 18 or 20, they can enter Magic Kingdom park without a reservation after 2:00 pm.

I couldn't get past the second "amazing" in that video.

Are you sure she is not working on the Inside-Out reskin of Pirates Of The Caribbean?

Last I heard she was doing the Ant-Man conversion of "it's a small world" Though between you and me, I think she's also heading up the Duffy and Friends overlay for Living with the Land.

Of all the high profile attractions under development, which one is Charita Carter doing?

The current crop, though talented in some ways - just doesn't have the talent of whimsy, fun, storytelling etc., as the classic crop. Add to that the insistence that messaging be of high importance.

So Tiana's story is like ogres and onions?

I'm enjoying these Imagineering puff pieces. Really helps to put a face to the disaster. Now we know by name some of the Imagineers responsible for this. Let's not forget the ride through of Anaheim's that as posted, where an Imagineer talked about how they partnered with a third party to design a figure... that's literally just a tail wiggling a bit. Every piece of marketing, or interview with Imagineering for this attraction has been beyond tone deaf. It's absurd. Here's Carter talking about how the attraction is great because Tiana is a modern 20th century princess that people can relate to. Her story has layers. Meanwhile, Here's Mr. Gordon talking about the concept and ride experience of Splash Mountain. Just listen to the passion he has for Disneyland, and how genuine he sounds. He doesn't take it too serious and sure as heck doesn't talk about how important it is that people relate to the characters on the ride because they're a 20th century princess and her story has layers.

Good point. If I win the Tiana lottery and my return time is 6 hours away and I wait the six hours and it goes down I am more angry than if I just jumped in the standby at random and it went down. My thinking is was I assume the required throughput is higher when stand by is open and there could be even worse and more bad guest experiences.

I'm inclined to disagree. All attractions break down here and there. Sure, TBA breaks down more than others, but the VQ system gives the guest a sense of entitlement (despite the terms of Virtual Queue saying that having a boarding group is not a guarantee to ride -- no one reads that). When they secure a VQ and the queue they are in gets cleared out due to a downtime, they will be more angry than if they just queued up normally.

Sometimes I think people who pre-booked it modify to another tier 1 when they score the VQ in the morning or at 1pm.

There were none at the start, but some availability dropped.

Not following closely enough then. Thanks for clarifying!

As one who tracks the VQ data, there's been a noticeable uptick in downtime over the past month or two. It's getting worse from a reliability perspective imo. Just today it was closed from 10:30am - 4:28pm for an extended closure. That's abnormal and not per usual.

I thought we had gotten to a point that reliability wasn't the issue anymore, and the downtime shown on the VQ thread was mainly tied to rain events.
