Looks like ROTM will be opening alot earlier than expected, just looking at the pictures and a friend was telling me everything is almost complete, so expect it to be opening sometime very soon.

I hope so. I have now rescheduled our itinerary so that we can visit US on 12th May if necessary, the very last full day at Orlando on our trip.

Cool, im pretty sure it should be open by then.

First timer here - now I am getting really excited - 11 sleeps and counting - great weather [msncool] at the moment and short wait times - what more could we ask for - is this likely to last for the next 3/4 weeks? We're booked for 20 Mar - 3 Apr (which works out the 1/2 weeks before Easter and we were told (after we'd booked) that this was the busiest two weeks of the year!!

The parks could get quite busy around that time with it being spring break and also with the Mummy set to open soon, however im sure you will still have a great trip.

I hope that their 'shortly' is short enough. We are planning to go to US on Monday 10th or Wednesday 12th May. We hope that it will be in full swing by then.[msnscared][msnscared]

I read on many websites that it is planned to open in april, probably going to try to open it by easter. But you know how sometimes it takes them longer [msnscared] I don't mind as i'm going in august! Aslong as it's opened by then!

Well, you never know. It might open in April, run for 3 months and then temporarily close in August for refurbishment to sort out teething problems.

Well the soft opening has started according to one of the guests in one of my villas who went on it yesterday. It was about 12 noon and some employees dressed as Egyptians appeared outside the ride, said there were technical try outs starting and asked people to form a queue which around 200 people did. You go into a pre- show area filled with scary props and Egyptian memorabilia. The ride itself is a roller coaster in the dark, with no inversions and quite fast. There is fire and plenty of mummies and skeletons jumping out at you but the scariest bit is when it appears that locusts are coming out of the walls and into your car, this achieved through film and animatronics. He described the ride as "very good".
