With standby wait times soaring into the two-hour mark on the reg for Disney’s Animal Kingdom’s Flight of Passage, it can be an especially unpleasant wait for anyone who’s gotta use the restroom.
But that was then, and this is NOW! You’ll never believe what we’re ALL getting for Christmas from Disney this year — mid queue restrooms on Avatar’s Flight of Passage!
We know that you know the importance of using the restroom before you get in the Flight of Passage queue, but sometimes, in spite of your best intentions, you just gotta go at some point past the hour mark of standing in line. And there hasn’t been a convenient place to heed the call of nature without stepping out of line and backtracking your way all the way out of Flight of Passage’s queue… until now!
You’ll find these single-seater Flight of Passage restrooms as you pass into the bioluminescent jungle section of the queue, following the cave system waiting area.
The two restrooms are unisex, so all who enter here are welcome! (But…um…humans ONLY, pls.)
Here’s a quick photo tour around ONE of the TWO new restrooms!
There’s a sharps receptacle on the wall as well as an electric hand dryer…
…and there’s a feminine hygiene product dispenser along a trash can receptacle in the corner. No changing table here, because you can’t soar on the back of a banshee with you bb! Gotta heed that height requirement!
No mirror = No dawdling, folks! There’s only TWO of these puppies and we have a feeling they’re going to be POPULAR! (Almost as popular as the ride!)
And of course, you’ll still find the Flight of Passage bottle filling station nearby, courtesy of Alpha Centauri Expeditions. Thanks, ACE!

What do you think of Flight of Passage’s new restrooms? Are these things a lifesaver or what? Tell us your thoughts in the comments below!
I like the idea of having restrooms mid way through the line, but would be even a better idea would be a virtual queue! Like they have for RotR. Think about it you no longer have to wait in line, you can spend your time shopping or eating(!) before riding light of Passage.
I believe a virtual queue is the future for all of Disney’s E ticket rides. Once they realize people may spend money while waiting….
Great until someone takes a huge dump and smells up the entire que line.
Please virtual que instead! So much more I want to see/do rather than wait in line! Ugh!! Waste of my vacation!
So how does this work in practice? You have to get back into line after you use the restroom, is there a way to do that without causing issues with the people in line? Or do you just lose your place and have to go to the end?
I’m amazed that people will wait in those lines. Disney failed to consider the need for basic services and now when they finally provide them they get props??
