The official Walt Disney World website has updated information on height requirements for the two new attractions coming to Pandora – The World of Avatar opening soon at Disney’s Animal Kingdom.
For Avatar Flight of Passage, guests must be 44-inches (112 centimeters) or taller to ride. Here is how Disney describes this attraction:
“Get a banshee’s-eye view of the beauty and grandeur of Pandora on a rite of passage you won’t soon forget!
Deep in the heart of the Valley of Mo’ara, discover Avatar Flight of Passage — an all-new expedition that lets interstellar explorers like you climb atop a mountain banshee for a breathtaking, first-person flight over the moon’s incredible landscape.
Bonding with a mountain banshee is a crucial step in the life of a Na’vi hunter—and flying on the back of one of these powerful winged creatures represents an important rite of passage.
Now, as a visitor to Pandora, you’ll finally have the chance to test yourself in a similar way!”
There is no height requirement for the Na’vi River Journey – this attraction is listed as a ‘slow ride.’ Disney describes this attraction as:
“A Family-Friendly Adventure where guests slide down a gentle, mysterious river and feel a sense of wonder as the full beauty of Pandora reveals itself. Located within the Valley of Mo’ara, Na’vi River Journey offers explorers an experience that has to be seen—and heard—to be believed!
As your expedition begins, climb aboard a reed boat and drift downstream. After coasting through a series of caves, and passing by exotic glowing plants and amazing creatures of the rainforest, you’ll soon find yourself face-to-face with the Na’vi Shaman of Songs.
The adventure comes to a conclusion as the Shaman demonstrates her deep connection to the life force of Pandora—and sends positive energy out into the forest through the power of her music!”
Pandora – The World of Avatar opens at Disney’s Animal Kingdom on May 27, 2017!
