    Hello, thunder mountain ride appears to be open today.. on the Disney guide app it says the ride is currently with 10 minutes queuing time.. is this correct? I thought the ride was shut until summer 2025. Thank you.

    Hey Howdy Hey, Muriel!

    Welcome to planDisney! Here it's always a practically perfect day to discuss an upcoming Disneyland Paris vacation, but I'm always delighted when I have the opportunity to assist a Guest who is just a few short days away from the magic. Before you know it, you'll be eating Mickey-shaped snacks and wandering through Alice's Curious Labyrinth, so let's see if Big Thunder Mountain will be part of your magical itinerary as well. 

    Although I'm a Walt Disney World Resort regular, I must admit that Big Thunder Mountain at Disneyland Paris is one of my favorite attractions across all Disney Parks. I'll never forget what a thrilling surprise it was to discover Disneyland Paris's iteration of this beloved Disney coaster is indeed the wildest ride in the West! Because so many Mouseketeers feel the same way about this attraction, I'm so sorry to share that the queueing time you saw displayed in the app must have been a temporary error because the attraction is still indeed closed for refurbishment until early this summer with no exact reopening date announced. 

    Of course, just because you won't be rattling along an abandoned mine cart during your vacation, doesn't mean there aren't other thrills to enjoy. Avengers Assemble: Flight Force, Crush's Coaster, Indiana Jones and the Temple of Peril, RC Racer, Star Wars Hyperspace Mountain, and The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror are all featured on the website's list of 'big thrills' attractions that are currently available for Guest enjoyment. If you're concerned about queueing time, don't forget that Disney Premier Access can help you bypass standby queues as you maximize magic and minimize waits during your vacation. 

    While I'm sure this isn't what you were hoping to hear, Muriel, I hope this clears things up for you as you plan. Feel free to stop back by if you need any additional assistance as your vacation approaches. I'm always happy to help!

    Thinking Happy Thoughts,
