Did it every show Big thunder mountain and say "sit tight"?I entered the queue at 830 central. Didn’t get in. I never even saw what dates were available. I’m guessing because we have no blackout dates with the incredi-pass? Or maybe I didn’t do it right.
Regardless, no preview for me
Yes. With a message that the wait was more than an hour (for three hours). Dropped to half an hour suddenly, then went back to more than an hour. Then “event full”.Did it every show Big thunder mountain and say "sit tight"?
Yep. Really common. Next time try multiple windows, browsers, devices, and incognito windows. I had 4 or 5 up with 2 less than 15 minutes, and the rest at over an hour. It randomly assigns the queue position/waiting time.Yes. With a message that the wait was more than an hour (for three hours). Dropped to half an hour suddenly, then went back to more than an hour.

I suspect this may be a window for paid Lightning Lane+ sales. No virtual queue. Just pay and pick an available time slot. Maybe deluxe hotel reservations get first dibs, then other WDW resort reservations. They will definitely have it running; and if they can grab revenue from it, they will.Soft openings work too. I just can't imagine they would do all this testing up to March 12th and then let the ride sit idle for 3 weeks until the official opening on April 4th. That doesn't make any sense. Both the ride and the staff need lots of practice before the official opening day.
For the record, I entered the queue at 9:40 and did not make it.
I was a little trepidatious about it anyway; not sure how the arthritis in my shoulder & hip will stand up to it.
YAY! You were able to get oneThank you so much for helping me get a time slot!!
I would book a quick trip for this, my DD non -AP holder is dying to ride!I suspect this may be a window for paid Lightning Lane+ sales. No virtual queue. Just pay and pick an available time slot.

First time I haven't been able to snag previews. Sat in that queue for over 3 hours and it sold out.
Dah well. We are just gonna go the Sunday after it opens and buy ILL *shrug*

I agree- the DAH event would be the softest of launches with limited capacity. Would give them an idea of how the traffic flows a little better and give them more opportunities to run through a few hours of continuous rides...We'll be there March 20-25, and I'll let them take my money if there's an opportunity to ride. We're also doing DAH at MK, so that would be an especially awesome time.
Wow so my 200 was a really lucky number.Anyone trying to get DVC? I have like 4000 on computer & 6500 on phone. Doesn’t look promising as I assume not as many spots!
