Astro Orbiter Wait Times
Perched high atop the Rockettower Plaza in Tomorrowland, Astro Orbiter gives riders a bird's-eye view of Magic Kingdom from colorful retro-futuristic rocket ships that spin and tilt. Riders control the altitude of their ship while orbiting around a central tower of spinning planets. The elevated height makes this spinner feel more thrilling than similar rides. Be aware that the narrow elevator to the loading platform can create a bottleneck, so wait times often appear longer than the actual ride experience.
