Peter Pan's Flight

yeah.

And my favorite ride is Peter Pan's Flight.

That's my absolute favorite.

It's

But I've also read that the moods were drama, humor, and beauty.

So, you know, Peter Pan's flight was designed to invoke wonder.

Mr. Toad's wild ride provided the fun and Snow White and her adventures aroused fear.

So from the very beginning, the Snow White attraction was intended to fill the role of a traditional spook house ride found in most amusement parks of the era.

Now, Bill Martin devised a track layout for the attraction, and Martin had worked for 20th Century Fox as an art director and set designer.

So he was able to take the conceptual artwork for the attraction and work out how they would realistically function in the attraction and fit in the show building that was already pre-planned and built.

Martin also created the conceptual track layout for the Peter Pan's Flight attraction.

Claude Coates used the color to set the mood for the backgrounds of animated films that made Walt decide to use Coates to use his artistic skills to bring about the same sense of mood and emotion in the film.

But, um, what was one that you were mentioning that you thought would be good?

Um, I was thinking if, if I could have FastPass on anything, I would love it on Peter Pan.

But, like, as it is right now-

Mm

Let's just name a few in Magic Kingdom.

Peter Pan.

Peter Pan.

Yeah.

You just didn't name a few.

Yeah, we'll see.

Maybe Tinkerbell will fly.

Hey, I really hope we see Wendy and Peter Pan fly.

So some of the lowered weights are a little bit lost on us.

I mean, I know there's Peter Pan, but here's my Disney hot take: I think Peter Pan's overrated.

And, you know-

Gasp.

I think it's-

Yeah, it's a painful line

... yeah, it feels a little bit like Peter Pan to me, where it's like-

Mm

We rope dropped it from the central courtyard.

We made a beeline for Peter Pan.

Yeah.

Because that's going to be the longest line and there's no lightning for it.

So we were well early regardless.

Are we? Because we

just said we waited in line for Peter Pan for five minutes.

We would have waited another five.

Instead, the legendary Skyway to Tomorrowland and Skyway to Fantasyland systems were in place here.

It's unfortunate that it's only a restroom experience, but the restroom experience allowed them to remove the restrooms that were actually on the other side of this pathway and thus create a larger, extended, interactive experience for those lining up to visit Peter Pan's flight.

Peter Pan's Flight was an opening day attraction, along with Snow White's Adventures and Mr. Toad's Wild Ride.

All three dark rides opened.

Unfortunately, those two closed, but we still have the joy of riding over London and over to Neverland.

You'll see it when you're on Casey Jr. It's this cute little boat.

towns that you go through of all the different stories so you'll see like a little version of like Snow White's cottage a little version of like Agrabah from Aladdin a little version of like Peter Pan and like Big Ben and it's just really really cute that one especially again I love at night it's so pretty at night It's so pretty at night.

The little villages are all lit up.

There's like these beautiful arches as you go by the Casey Jr. train.

I'm never going on it again.

Yes.

And then the last, well, actually two more that we have in Fantasyland are Peter Pan Flight, which that one, again, is a little tricky just because of the weight.

That one always has the longest weight in Fantasyland.

To me, it's sort of the embodiment of, you know, how we grew up with the stages of Disney.

And so even if I don't go on Peter Pan or Dumbo right then, I just like the atmosphere, the sound, and the music.

And so Fantasyland, and then, um, I'll work my way around the park.

I just, I think it's a lot of fun.
