Disney’s Animal Kingdom is the perfect blend of the magic of Disney with the wonders of the animal kingdom. Disney’s Animal Kingdom offers a unique combination of attractions, live shows, and encounters with real animals. From the thrilling Expedition Everest to the breathtaking Pandora – The World of Avatar land, Disney’s Animal Kingdom brings conservation, adventure, and fantasy to life.

With all of the exciting adventures Guests can explore while at Disney World, some Guests have started to question the layout for TRON Lightcycle / Run. In a social media post, Guests can be seen waiting in the queue for this new Disney attraction stuck out in the sun. Guests who purchased Lighting Lane did not have to suffer in the sun.

“It’s hot we know that and hopefully everyone is being safe. However I will get on Disney for this design choice for tron. Why have the queue outside in the sun with no shade?!?! Let alone why was the line this bad with a virtual queue. Would it have been so bad to extend the covering or build one over the queue?”

Guests visiting Disney World experience excitement, and unforgettable memories. However, the Florida heat can be quite intense, especially during the summer months. Guests looking to beat the Florida heat should wear lightweight, breathable clothing, stay hydrated, and take breaks throughout the day. Guests should also familiarize themself with the symptoms of heat exhaustion and heatstroke.

To ride TRON Lightcycle / Run, you either have to book a spot in the Virtual Queue, which drops at 7:00 a.m. and 1:00 p.m., or buy an Individual Lightning Lane Pass, which can be found on the My Disney Experience app in the Disney Genie+ section.
