/* Backstory */
The story of Flight of Passage (as well as the rest of Pandora) takes place a generation after the events in the film AVATAR. In the queue for Flight of Passage, guests enter a former Resources Development Administration mining facility, which has been repurposed as the Pandora Conservation Initiative's Mountain Banshee Project research facility. The Conservation Initiative was started in an attempt to rectify the damage done by the RDA through both their mining, and their conflict with the Na'vi. In order to study the Valley of Mo'ora's ecosystem, scientists have identified the banshee as a keystone species. Unfortunately, due to the location of the banshee's rookeries, and the danger the animals pose, it is impossible for humans to study the species up close.
Due to advances in technology however, guests can now be matched and linked to an Avatar based on genetic comprehensibility. This new technique was invented by Dr. Jackie Ogden, who restarted the Avatar Program, and allows humans to participate in the Na'vi rite of passage known as Iknimaya.
===Queue===
The Flight of Passage queue begins with guests taking a gradual climb up into Pandora's mountains. Entering into nearby caverns, guests can see Na'vi artwork depicting the Inkaya rite of passage. Further on, guests find a small entrance that leads to a dilapidated RDA mining facility. Over the years since the facility was built, the natural world of Pandora has begun to reclaim its territory. Around them, guests can see various foliage which has grown over the mining facility infrastructure. In the distance, guests can hear the cry of young banshees.
