If you have the time, request the 1st row when at the boarding stage, even if it means having to wait a bit longer. It's well worth it

The real question is, which part really makes you squeal, or laugh, or say WHOOOOOOA!!??
Originally Posted By vbdad55 I don't know if there is a whoaaa for me in there , but that is not a bad thing. The whole 'flight' is kind of surreal and just takes over for that period of time. I agree it is the best attraction opened in a while to be sure as far as my enjoyment....
Originally Posted By trekkeruss <<which part really makes you squeal, or laugh, or say WHOOOOOOA!!??>> The whole movie is wonderful (especially the score that accompanies it.) Perhaps my favorite gimmick in the film is, no, not the golf ball, but in the beginning, just after flying over the Golden Gate Bridge. Suddenly you are transported to a river winding through a forest (anyone know what river that is?) The camera swoops dow low over some kayakers; so low that you feel like your feet are going to start dragging through the water! I feel bad for those with a fear of heights, as this ride is definitely a great attraction, and family friendly in the best tradition of Disney.

Originally Posted By dl1956 imadisneygal, you're partly correct.

In general, the Soarin sequences follow a zig zag Northern to Southern, California pattern.

Originally Posted By A Foolish Mortal To post number 30, to answer your question, I love it when the golf ball comes right at you and it looks like it will hit you but then it doesn't. I also like it when you fly or Disneyland and L.A.
Originally Posted By Lucinda54 Rode Soarin' when I was there in late October - AMAZING! We didn't get a chance to ride it until our last morning because of the LONG lines - even the Fast Passes were gone by 11 am! I would strongly advise you to get to the park early, pick up a Fast Pass, get in line, ride it, and return for a second ride with your pass. It is wonderful!
Originally Posted By Labuda "That's the closet I'll probably ever get to Disneyland!" Aw, Blackie, that bums me out, dude. If you're a big enough Disney fan tobe here on LP, I think you should make it out west to Disneyland at some point - you owe it to yourself to see the original.
