As for soft openings fron FN:SV, CM previews (must have a ticket) will start June 1st thru the 4th. The 5th is a day of repairs and changes from what was learned thru the CM previews. June 6th and 7th are blocked off for AP previews (must have won the lottery and have a ticket). Now June 8th and 9th have been reserved for maintenance, but if that is not needed, you MIGHT find some Soft Openings, more than likely by using the Dream Patrol handing out passes to limit the queue. Sunday, June 9th, there is no way to access the area, as they will being hosting a Celebrity Party in the afternoon, and then the Press Party that evening. Innoventions is closed all weekend, no Jedi Training Academy (Tomorrowland Terrace) on Sunday, and on Monday, not until 1 PM. Also expect to see Autopia and the Monorail closed. Monday the 11th, the area will once again be closed in the morning for the Grand Opening event (invited guests only). A line will form near the Matterhorn entrance at park opening, and sometime between 11 AM and Noon will be allowed to move to the Sub Lagoon, as it will be open for guests.

Originally Posted By Dabob2 It could be my eyes playing tricks, but it looks like perhaps the lagoon portion, at least, may not be perfectly symetrical, or perfectly "doubled" for the two sides of the subs?? So that you'd see slightly different things depending on which side you were on? I'm sure the main sights in the show building will be duplicated like they always were (though obviously in a completely different way), but perhaps the "real" (non-projected) props are not completely symetrical? Anyone know?

Either way, winning will entitle you to one(1) trip on the ride, right? Any future rides after the official opening will require a wait, for hours and hours and hours. I for one, am grateful for an annual pass, as if the wait's too long, I can at least come back during the off-season.
