Howdy, partners! We are thrilled to be back at Disney’s Magic Kingdom during reopening previews and are continuing to share all health and safety precautions being taken in the wake of COVID-19. Next up, we are headed to Frontierland to experience the wildest ride in the wilderness: Big Thunder Mountain Railroad.

Wait times have consistently remained short during cast member previews. Big Thunder Mountain is only a 10-minute wait.

Plexiglass barriers are located throughout the normally tight-packed queue to promote social distancing.

In additional to plexiglass walls, floor markers indicate where each party should stand in line with (all of which are 6 feet apart).

In this section of the queue right before guests arrive at the boarding station, guests normally split into two separate lines side-by-side. Social distancing markers are placed on the floor on both sides, however when we rode, one side was closed.
