Great view but that's about it. The queue is tedious and it is very nausea inducing!
Pros:
Fantastic viewsCons:
Makes you feel sick. Tricky queue because of the elevator and low rise capacity.Reviewed by Kenzj Review Date: 01/29/2020

The only nice thing about this attraction is the view you get, but the wait time and comfort of the ride are not great. You have to go in an elevator to get to the top, and the seats are very tight. They told us we could fit two adults in one vehicle- definitely not ideal. I don't recommend unless someone is your party is space-obsessed.
Pros:
The viewCons:
Lack of comfort, not worth the wait.Reviewed by colemamma Review Date: 12/31/2019

I don't know why WDW keeps this one around. You have to ride an elevator up to access this ride, then you stand in the hot Florida sun to be crammed in a ride that last just a couple minutes. I've seen people fall out of these when the ride is over and they are trying to get off the ride. It's like Dumbo only lots hotter and more difficult to get in and out of. The queue line (before you board the elevator)often gets mixed with the queue for the People Mover line during busy times. It's just a hot mess that WDW could replace with something better, IMO.
Pros:
at night provides a nice view of MKCons:
practically everything, avoid if you are tall, plus sized, not able to lift your legs really high to get in and out of the ride, afraid of heights. Also avoid on hot or sunny days.Reviewed by Anonymous Review Date: 09/15/2023

Between the long line and uncomfortable seating, this one is only worth it for the nostalgia and for the family-friendly aspect. The view (which is often a reason people recommend it), is better on the people mover.
Pros:
Family friendlyCons:
Long wait for a short ride, uncomfortable vehicle seatsReviewed by Magicali Review Date: 08/16/2021

If you want a nice view of the park, be prepared to sacrifice an hour or so wait time as well as your lunch! I feel dizzier on here than I ever would on Dumbo or Magic Carpets.
Pros:
Pretty view of Tomorrowland and surrounding areasCons:
Long waits, dizzyingReviewed by Anonymous Review Date: 07/31/2021

Simple up and down ride like Dumbo that is based on space. People have to get up to the boarding area via elevators which can’t hold as many people and can stack up a bunch of crowds. Usually has a longer wait than Dumbo.
Pros:
Good view of Tomorrowland, Good for kidsCons:
Long waits, Magic Kingdom has two other similar ridesReviewed by ThankThePhoeniciansInTheLaughingPlace Review Date: 06/14/2021

Although many people think of it as cool because of its height and elevator ride, this ride is not worth its wait. The ships are not the most comfortable vehicles to sit in, especially if you are riding with another person. Definitely not a must do in the Magic Kingdom.
Pros:
The Height of the rideCons:
Not worth the wait.Reviewed by Anonymous Review Date: 04/08/2021

This ride isn’t as good as dumbo and it’s a horrible wait with the elevators. And the view isn’t as good as I was expecting.
