Soarin’ Across America Coming to EPCOT and Disney California Adventure in 2026
Soarin’ Across America is taking flight at Walt Disney World and Disneyland! To celebrate the United States’ 250th anniversary, Disney is introducing an all-new version of the iconic attraction, complete with stunning new aerial footage showcasing the country’s natural beauty and landmarks. Even better? Chief Flight Attendant Patrick is back to guide guests on their journey.
“The new bi-coastal offering will showcase the United States—from sea to shining sea—highlighting some of the country’s natural beauty and iconic cityscapes. This will be brought to life with the iconic elements that make Soarin’ unforgettable – the flight, the sights and score, even the scents! Walt Disney Imagineering is hard at work capturing more than a dozen breathtaking locations for the new flight.”
Hello! I’m Patrick, your chief flight attendant.
Soon, as you sail through our spacious skies, you may see amber waves of grain, purple mountain majesties. That’s right! We’re gonna be Soarin’ Across America. What better way to celebrate the country’s semiquincentennial than with a limited-time sea-to-shining-sea itinerary.
America has packed a lot into her 250 years, so you’ll want to pack a lot of party favors into your rollaboard. This includes Betsy Ross flags, hot dogs, apple pies, bald eagles, bunting, pocket constitutions, powdered wigs, and, of course, these little beauties.
Nice work, pal.
Happy 250th, America.
Patrick, Your Chief Flight Attendant



Disney also launched the America 250 Blog, showcasing everything the company plans to offer during the celebration.
