UP! A Great Bird Adventure will Offer Fastpass+

UP! A Great Bird Adventure will Offer Fastpass+


For a stress-free Disney or Universal Studios vacation, let the FREE expert planners at Royal Carriage Vacations take care of every detail including dining reservations, applying discounts, and onboard cruise credit.


The new bird show featuring Russell and Dug from UP! that is taking the place of Flights of Wonder in Asia will offer Fastpass+!

The official listing on the Walt Disney World website and My Disney Experience lists the show as opening April 22, 2018, but Fastpass+ doesn’t show as being an option until May 6, 2018.  Additionally, when I checked the website for the show schedule, the schedule doesn’t appear until May 6, 2018 as well.

UP! A Great Bird Adventure showtimes will be at 10:30am, 12:00pm, 1:30pm, 3:30pm and 5:00pm.  I’ve added all the details to Character Locator, so you can easily add it to your plans.  Hopefully, we’ll have more information that confirms the actual opening date soon.

On a side note, the official name of the show was shortened.  Originally the show was to be named Explorers Meet UP! A Great Bird Adventure.  It appears that the “Explorers Meet” part was dropped.  I prefer the new name.

Hi Kenny! Any new information about the show? I'll be at AK on 4/22 and I'm looking forward to see this show!

Hi Kenny, our trip ends 4/21. Any chance this show soft opens a little early? BTW really appreciate all your material. You have surpassed easywdw as our new “go to” site, especially with the effort to maintain a monthly crowd calendar and park day recommendations, despite Disney shifting ride capacity and making this very difficult. I don’t know if I’m happy or bummed that MK/AK park hours were not extended to daily 8am openings for our 4/15-4/21 trip. Does this mean Disney does not expect a high crowd week? One final question. I hear rider swap passes have been changed to same day only use which would change our set touring plan. Is this true?

Shows generally don't open early, but it is possible. Additional park hour extensions are always possible, but WDW runs a tight budget now. Rider switch are same day return at most attractions now.

Hi Kenny! just signed back up..planning a new trip! I have tons of catch up reading to do! I thought of this idea on our last trip, with the tour guide guy it kinda made sense to me that they use a Disney character and Russell is perfect!! it's nice to have a fresh show to go to
