* CharacterCatchphrase: "Sivako" ("rise to the challenge") is the slogan of Banshee riders.



** Txopu and Valke, the na'vi who greet visitors to the river ride and lead them on the ''Flight of Passage'' ride respectively, first appeared in the park as unnamed na'vi, before being added to the Na'vi side in ''Avatar: Pandora Rising'' as unlockable commanders.

Clearing YMMV tropes. Also, no Aversions should be listed.


* GoneHorriblyWrong: Averted with ''Flight of Passage'', which makes it very unlike other narrative-based rides. Although the riders have a few brief close encounters with some of Pandora's predators, their flight goes entirely as planned with no major interruptions.

* ShoulderSizedDragon: Electronic Banshee toys that can perch on your shoulder, presented as baby Banshees, are among the headliners for TheMerch offered in the land.
* SpiritualSuccessor:
** This land is one to a land that was originally envisioned for Animal Kingdom but never built, the infamous Beastly Kingdom, which was slated to be a land where fantasy creatures lived. It even had several major attractions similar to those featured in Pandora, most notably a gentle boat ride along with a thrill ride. Pandora, in a sense, fulfills Beastly Kingdom's vision in that it is a land that fantasy creatures call home.
** ''Flight of Passage'' is this to ''Soarin''', as both rides simulate flying across different locations, only that ''Flight of Passage'' is a much more advanced take on the concept.
** ''River Journey'' can be considered one to ''Living with the Land'', given that both rides take guests through animal-filled ecosystems.

''Pandora – The World of Avatar'' is a themed land at [[Ride/DisneyThemeParks Disney's Animal Kingdom]] based on Creator/JamesCameron's 2009 film ''Film/{{Avatar}}''. Announced in 2011 in response to the success of Ride/UniversalStudios's successful ''Ride/TheWizardingWorldOfHarryPotter'', it replaced Camp Minnie-Mickey. It opened in May 2017 and features two rides: ''Flight of Passage'' and the ''Na'vi River Journey''. With Disney not owning the ''Avatar'' series at the time of the land's opening, the creative team has stressed the shared conservation themes and that it functions as a fulfillment of the park's initial concept of featuring imaginary animals in addition to living and extinct ones.

Set many years after the events of the original ''Avatar'' film or any of its forthcoming sequels (referred to as "the documentaries" by cast members to commit to immersion), a space ecotourism company called Alpha Centauri Expeditions (or A.C.E.) has now established a more peaceful relationship with the Na'vi, who are now much more welcoming to human visitors, and established a base camp in the Valley of Mo'ara. Nature has reclaimed much of the human military base and abandoned mech suits. The Avatar production process has been refined to allow visitors a less restricted connection to their Avatar and take flight on a Banshee. On a boat ride through the rivers, a Shaman of Songs welcomes visitors to join in on a special ritual in the bioluminescent forest.

* NoBiochemicalBarriers: The atmosphere problem presented in the film has been Handwaved away as this particular part of Pandora having conveniently human-friendly air because of a special plant that removes the dangerous gases from the atmosphere of the valley. It appears that removal of these gases don't appear to harm the Na'vi either, as the ones on the River Journey can safely occupy the same space as humans.
