Tomorrowland Transit Authority People Mover

Relax and enjoy a leisurely 10-minute journey above the Tomorrowland area aboard this pollution-free mass transit system. Each car seats 4 Guests with 2 riding forward and 2 riding backward.



"What's the point?" - There really, is no point. I guess the main point is to either.. 1., get out of the crowds and look at them flow from below. 2., relax. or 3., take a tour of tomorrowland.



The GOOD - Never a wait. EVER. Even if it looks like a small wait, it isn't. The reason: It's sort of like an omnimover ride, it never stops. So you never wait. If there's a line, you don't stop moving. Also, it's relaxing in the florida heat as a nice breeze cools over you. It gives you a good look at the inside of Space Mountain, especially if the lights are on. You can see where everything is, and it also gives a view of Buzz Lightyear's Space Ranger Spin. As well as the original model concept for EPCOT. It's enjoyable and relaxing, great for a nap and if there isn't a line (most likely not), they'll let you ride again if you want to relax a bit more.

The BAD - It could seem pretty boring for some kids and teens. So the problem with this? They tend to start talking, screaming, crying or whatever and ruin your relaxation. It has a tendency to break down some times. Not all the time, but not on a low basis. The new audio sounds more playful and kiddish, unlike it's original audio which went with the theme of tomorrowland.

Should YOU go on it? - If you're tired and end up in Tomorrowland, or Tomorrowland is crowded, or if Space Mountain is broken down, or if you think you would enjoy it, sure. It's not on that top-to-do list of course, it's just there. It's like the Main Street Vehicles in Main Street, there isn't that much of a purpose. It isn't bad, it's actually quite enjoyable, even tho it doesn't like like any fun from down below. So, it's 50/50. If you want to, go ahead, you never need to wait for it to start. If you don't, you aren't missing much.

RATING: 2/5
