What is Avatar Flight of Passage ride like?

Flight of Passage is a simulator type ride with soaring heights, drops, and quick turns. There's definitely a chance motion sickness will occur. The flying sensation feels very real, including a moment where the virtual banshee goes “upside down.” This is just simulated, the ride vehicle itself does not go upside down.

It's so smooth and there is so much to look at, smell and feel. I didn't want the ride to end. Our family spoke about Avatar Flight of Passage the entire way out of the ride and on our bus ride back to the resort. Without giving too much away, we all agree that it's a ride that everyone should experience at least once.

It can cause quite extreme motion sickness (I have seen this, not pleasant) so if anyone is inclined towards this, I wouldn't do it. There is nothing scary about the ride itself unless you have claustrophobia. The restraints are pretty restrictive. If she's not tall enough, she doesn't ride.

The only downside was that I did get a little bit of motion sickness during some of the flying scenes and need to close my eyes from time to time. It wasn't that bad though because I still rode the ride multiple times in a row when we did Animal Kingdom After Dark.

Pandora offers two vastly different rides. The Na'vi River Journey is the more suitable one for kids of all ages. Meanwhile, Avatar Flight of Passage is an intense and fast-moving 3D ride that's better suited for big kids, tweens, and adults.
