How to Ride Tiana’s Bayou Adventure
Tiana’s Bayou Adventure has debuted with a virtual queue (standard 7AM and 1PM drops) and Lightning Lane that is a part of Genie+. As of its debut, both options are incredibly popular. If you must ride the ride, we recommend picking it on Genie+ right at 7:00:00AM.
With that in mind, it’s worth noting that availability on Genie+ is always subject to pop up as the day goes on. You might opt to try for the 7AM virtual queue and then just check Genie+ continually throughout the day.
