Flights of Wonder is a live show performed in the Asia section of Disney's Animal Kingdom.

History

Although Asia did not open until the Spring of 1999 ^[1], Flights of Wonder actually opened with the rest of Disney's Animal Kingdom on April 22, 1998 ^[2]. Performed in the Caravan Stage, Flights of Wonder is an educational bird show. Although the tricks and performers have changed over the years, the basic premise of the show has remained the same. Of note is the fact that in 2016 a roof was added over the audience seating area ^[3].
