Have you visited Pandora – The World of Avatar yet? What are your thoughts? Is there any advice that you’d give for first-time visitors to make their visit more enjoyable?

Paul Little: I have visited Pandora. It is not to be missed. The Avatar Flight of Passage ride is one of the best rides on property. Think Soarin’ on steroids. When visiting, I would suggest heading to Pandora at park opening. As ThemeParkTourist.com has reported, the wait times have started to get more bearable but can still push close to two hours.

Scott Ferraioli: We've been lucky enough to visit Pandora a few times now and it's truly a beautiful land.  As this is going to be the busiest area in Disney World for at least another year, FastPasses are highly recommended and should be booked as soon as you hit your reservation window.  It's been much less crowded at night, and that's exactly when Pandora stands out with it's lighting. 

Image: DisneyAvatar Flight of Passage has quickly become the most popular ride on Disney property (shown by its wait times) and truly is an amazing experience.  Na'Vi River Journey is a slow moving boat ride that Disney seemed to miss on.  The ride is too short and with only one animatronic (although fantastic) the ride seems to be missing something.  The land also has just one restaurant, a gift shop, and a beverage cart.  It really needs something else.  The original impression when you walk in is pure awe, after doing everything you can't help to want more (especially when you consider that this was the answer to Universal creating "Potter World."

Kristen Tutas: I’ve not visited yet myself but I hear that the queue line for Flight of Passage is not to be missed and well worth the wait time. 

Nick Cotton: I have visited Pandora multiple times, and it is a must see at night!  Disney really set a new bar with Pandora.  Generally, I don't do lines over 30 minutes, but I made an exception for the Flight of Passage and so should you.  In my opinion, it is the best ride at WDW!  The Na'vi River Journey is excellent as well, but nothing as revolutionary as the Flight of Passage.  Also, don't forget to visit the gift shop where you can even have your own Avatar made!  If you decide to have them make an Avatar of you, prepare for about five minutes of them scanning you and then about an additional hour of creation time.  And don't worry about the shipping. The Avatar they make is not the life-size nine-foot model, but rather one that can easily fit on a bookshelf.
