Come on in, Liz. I'm glad you made it!
During the Annual Passholder Previews for
Tiana's Bayou Adventure, you will not be guaranteed a spot in the
Virtual Queue. However, if you have a
Theme Park Reservation for
Magic Kingdom Park, you will have 2 chances to snag a Boarding Group, at 7 a.m. and 1 p.m. After all, the more opportunities you have, the better your chances of getting a spot! If you secure a Boarding Group, when you are called to return to the attraction, you
must return within the window of time specified to ride.
Now even though we all know that the secret spice to the gumbo of life is you and all the talents you possess, did you know that the
Walt Disney World Resort will be the first place outside of Dooky Chase's Restaurant where you'll be able to buy spices from Leah Chase's family business (
she was the inspiration for Tiana)? C'est bon! Plus,
there will be some other remarkable pieces of merchandise to commemorate your ride down the bayou. While these will not be for purchase during the preview days, they'll be for sale for the grand opening on June 28, 2024 and beyond (subject to availability). I've got my eye on a few of these unique and exciting items!
Liz, let's not waste any more time doubting. I'm going to sing "
Special Spice," the new song made exclusively for this ride, in hopes it'll send you all the luck you need to get a Boarding Group! I think your first ride down the bayou will be a joyful celebration!
Please feel free to reach out again if you have any other questions.
Your special spice makes life complete,
Matt
