Mobile Soarin behind the scenes tour

I’m really hopeful that I can secure a booking for this while we are in Disney in September. I’m aware it’s really difficult to secure, does anyone have any tips? Is it 180 days from the Wednesday I want to book or 180 days from my first day? What time do I phone at for the best chance? Thank you 😊

I booked whilst in Florida so at 9.00am. I wanted the exact date 180 days hence but they told me it was full!
How I don't know and then they offered me 2 more dates even further ahead.
So my recommendation is ring 187 days before and see what they say.

Quite interesting actually. You meet by the Pin kiosk and they take you around from there. You have ear pieces to wear so they can speak to you.

I was hoping we could climb in the mechanism but when I asked I think the lady thought I was weird.

The 'tour' fitted in the front row middle section so it was nice to get some history and ride in the empty theatre.

Edit. Write down the Ref No they give you as it doesnt link on MDE. Mind you they have your details at the entrance where breakfast guests enter.

Great, thanks very much. It’s one of my favourite rides, I’m always intrigued by the mechanics of the ride, I will try and see how I get on.

When we did this two people turned up without a booking as they thought they just turned up on the day- not sure how they got through turnstiles though unless they just sounded convincing - and ended up getting on the tour as there were 4 no shows. I booked at 180 days out but could only get the following week than what I originally wanted. It is definitely worth ringing up early as they seem to be able to book earlier than what they state.

I was told, today, that it’s 180 days from the first day of your booking.

I called at 180 days and like Tom, there wasn't availability but I was offered another date which worked for us. I'd ring a week early and see what they say
