This version of Soarin’ is even better and more appropriate for EPCOT than the previous version.The visuals are stunning and the 4D experience is still there. I think this version feels even smoother and more realistic than the previous version. Lots of WOW moments.

Pros:

You get a beautiful glider-eye view of world wonders. The video is crisp, so no fuzzy edges to mess with your peripheral vision. Very realistic feeling of flying.

Cons:

Lots of swooping motions, so be prepared if you easily suffer motion sickness. There are a lot of quick scene changes that can be very startling and some loud unexpected sounds.

Feels like you are flying over some of the best views in the world! While it may seem like you are flying you are actually sitting still. Also, all your senses are engaged in this ride.

Pros:

scenery and flying sensation

Cons:

could cause motion sickness for some

This is a great experience. So fun & immersive, the part with the elephants where all of the sudden it feels hot & dusty is amazing

Pros:

Just a great experience

Cons:

Not good if you are afraid of heights or have motion sickness. Also the line is always super long

Absolute must-do ride for me! Love it so much! You really feel like you're hang-gliding over all sorts of places. Seats are generous in size for "pooh-sized" folks. Tip: pull the seat belt all the way out before you sit down, then sit on the edge of the seat, turn to click your belt in, then slide back in your seat and adjust belt to be snug. It can be a little tricky getting the belt unlocked at the end of the ride because some may find it hard to turn and see where to release it. I've asked someone in my party to help a couple of times. But overall, very manageable and comfortable for plus-sized people.

Pros:

awesome views and feeling of flying

Cons:

seats are fine, seatbelts a little tricky for plus-sized folks sometimes. But they're plenty long enough. Go on this ride!

One of the best rides at WDW. I like the trivia in the queue and the ride itself is brilliant. The sights smells and music make you feel like you are flying thru the actual world sites.

Pros:

Beautiful scenes, feels like you’re flying

Cons:

None
