Yes, and here's a great tip!
Be at the park before the park opens and be the first in the park and dash right over to Expedition Everest! And I mean dash like mad! Its almost like a race to get there! But once you're there don't get a fast pass. Most people are so oblivious to the real line that they're in line for fast passes. Like my mom and I were gonna get a fast pass but we looked at the standby line and then the line at the fastpass machine, just to get a fastpass and the fast pass machine line was longer than the standby ride line. So we said screw that, and while everyone was waiting just to get a fast pass we were in the expedition everest line and we only had to wait 15 minutes before we got on the ride. It was so good my mom and I rode it 3 times in a row! It's like Big Thunder Mountain at the Magic Kingdom, but Everest is more extreme. Its awesome to feel like you're trying to escape from the yeti and you go backwards and through curves and hills and darkness. Its so cool because as you're riding up the hill you can see like EPCOT and all of animal kingdom! Great view while you're waiting for the real part of the ride to start! Man its crazy but an absolute blast!

Yes, I went on it two days after it opened. The line was 80-90 minutes long, but we got 14 Fastpasses, so I went on three times! It goes up hills at exhilirating speeds, backwards. It's a very thrilling ride, although sort of short. It might appeal more to children because there is a Yeti, but it's fast enough, and thrilling enough to appeal to adults, too!

Yep, I rode it during the "soft opening" and during my last trip. I love the ride. I think you will have a blast on the ride. It is a "fun" roller coaster, not scary, just fun!

Yes, and I absolutly loved it. I think this is going to be next stepping stone in future roller coasters (don't want to say why, if you haven't rode it yet).
