Disney Imagineers are renowned for their ability to weave innovation and storytelling into unforgettable theme park experiences. A recent patent filing suggests they might be taking their signature Soarin’ attraction to a whole new level!

This recently filed patent points toward a potential revamp of the flying theater technology that powers Soarin’. The patent details depict a reimagined ride vehicle with a wider range of motion that allows for a more “aggressive” ride experience, including dips, dives, rolls, and even simulated turbulence. Once onboard the ride, a system of cables will propel riders along a curved track, allowing the vehicle to tilt, pitch, and even roll, mimicking the unpredictable nature of flight.

The patent offers two intriguing loading options. The first mirrors the current Soarin’ experience, while the second takes things to new heights (literally!). Guests could potentially board “above” the superstructure, experiencing a heart-pounding launch over the edge before transitioning into the main show area.
While this is just a patent filing, it offers a glimpse into the exciting possibilities Disney Imagineers are exploring. This new flying theater concept could pave the way for an all-new attraction or even an upgrade to the beloved Soarin’ experience.

The base technology for Soarin’ has already been adapted for Avatar Flight of Passage at Disney’s Animal Kingdom. This patent filing suggests Imagineers are pushing the boundaries even further. Soarin’ 2.0 (or whatever form this concept takes) promises to be an exhilarating and unforgettable addition to the Disney theme park experience, and we cannot wait to see this concept become reality!
