Dumbo the Flying Elephant is the classic Disney attraction….with a super cute makeover and TWO sets of flying elephants! Â The 1941 classic Disney movie flies above the new Fantasyland, just past Goofy’s Great Goofini and Casey Jrs. Splash Station. Â Guests have two options here: Â FastPass or enjoy the interactive queue and be paged when it’s your turn to board a flying elephant. Â Either way, you can enjoy parts of Storybook Circus while you wait.
- If you choose FastPass, you’ll enter through the left carousel and queue. Â If you choose to wait in the circus tent, you’ll be given a pager which holds your place in line.
- Parents can have a seat on the bleachers in the air conditioned tent while children enjoy slides, climbing nets, and more until it’s their turn.
- Guests in a wheelchair must transfer. Â This ride is gentle, and excellent for the whole family.
- There is a stationary Dumbo located outside the ride. Â This makes an excellent photograph area!
- You can control how high your elephant flies with a joystick. Â Children under 7 need to ride with someone 14 years or older.
Ride Dumbo the Flying Elephant at night, and you’ll enjoy colorful lights and sounds! Â It’s a much different experience during the night. Â There are characters you can meet across from Dumbo the Flying Elephant, in Pete’s Silly Sideshow.
Quick Tip: Â The Dumbo carousels turn in opposite directions-one goes counter clockwise while the other goes clockwise. Â Try riding via the FastPass and then during the interactive queue to enjoy different views of the Storybook Circus area. Â
Overall, we give this attraction an “A+”.
