Have you ever used a virtual queue in Disney World?
Magic Kingdom
For the past few years, virtual queues have been common for newly-opened Disney rides, starting with Rise of the Resistance in Hollywood Studios, and being used as recently as Tiana’s Bayou Adventure in Magic Kingdom. There doesn’t seem to be a set “rule” on how long Disney chooses to operate new rides with a virtual queue system, but we saw Rise of the Resistance swap to a standby line after a few years when the initial demand had died down a bit. Now, another attraction is getting rid of its virtual queue!
Disney has announced that TRON Lightcycle / Run in Magic Kingdom will be switching to a standby queue soon! The ride will continue to use a virtual queue system through September 8th, but will swap over to standby starting on September 9th.

This means that if you’re visiting on September 8th or before, you’ll need to use the My Disney Experience app to either join the virtual queue or purchase a Lightning Lane Single Pass to experience the ride. Those will be the only ways to gain access. Once September 9th hits, you can either wait in the regular standby line or purchase the Lightning Lane Single Pass to use the Lightning Lane entrance.

TRON Lightcycle / Run opened in Magic Kingdom in April 2023, so it has been in operation for nearly a year and a half at this point. Virtual queues have still been relatively popular for the ride, so if you want to snag one in the coming days, you’ll need to set alarms on your phone to remind you, and be ready on the dot at 7AM or 1PM.

Currently, two other attractions in Disney World also use virtual queue — Tiana’s Bayou Adventure and Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind. Tiana’s just opened earlier this summer, but Guardians has been open since May 2022. Currently, there is no update about when these rides will switch to standby.
