Reviewed by Anonymous Review Date: 03/19/2023 We rode once after waiting in the regular line, and once after waiting 10 minutes through Lightning Lanes.

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.

In my opinion, it's the best of all the 3D flying simulator rides. The line for Avatar Flight of Passage was consistently long throughout the day, at one point reaching 150 minutes toward the early evening. The good news is, that Disney offers a limited number of lightning lane entrance passes, but they do go quickly.
