    Registration hasn't started yet, you'll have to watch for an update for when it starts. I'm going to guess next week or the week after. It's a little complicated, and will get a LOT booked up, is my guess, but we'll see.

    I could barely stomach the two nausea inducing kids in this clip but the shots of Cars Land are worth it.

    Doen't bother me too much since it's temporary, but I get what you're saying. It's better than the wraps in my opinion and from what I understand each train has a new customized spiel that corresponds with the character.

    IMO, it's far better than the wraps we've seen in WDW. The Avengerail is putrid, and Tronorail was mildly cool.

    This is really neat. Minimal theming on the outside, and a non-annoying custom narration. I like it.

    The ride is a cartoonish view of the future anyway.
    I know, people just need to complain about any little change.

We'll see. I'd like our fulfillment folks to have the times wrong, but there's no knowing right now. We'll just have to wait for the next email, check in, etc. They may not have enough room to have all the invited day guests stay for WoC.
    BTW, letter says check in is 6 am to noon. Parking opens at 6 am.
