The reed boat ride vehicles for the Na’vi River Journey. Each one will hold up to eight people.

Media invitations are being sent out for the press previews.
The video element is pretty unique.

Some details about the land from WDW News Today:

Reportedly, there isn’t much in the way of signage for the attractions in the land, as it would impede on the natural environment around the two rides (in story). Na’vi totem poles will be used to convey to guests what the attraction is they are entering the queue for. Whether or not this means there will be wait time signs or not remains to be seen. Also, there will be no Mickey icon readers for MagicBands as it would not make sense on Pandora, so expect custom readers or ACE crew members with iPads I suppose.

Supposedly, the Na’vi River Journey attraction will feature only one Audio-Animatronic Na’vi creature, the Shaman character we were already introduced to. She will be seated along the riverbank in a crossed leg pattern, but if she were to stand, she would clock in at over 10 feet tall. There will however be additional “AAs” of some of the wildlife on Pandora.

Disney World's "Avatar Land" May Open Early

Disney reached out to annual passholders last week to reserve time slots for exclusive previews starting on May 13, suggesting that a soft opening could happen in early May if not by some point next month.

Not much new footage but an interesting look at the food of Pandora with some nice views of the park.

Preview starts on May 2.

Previews of Pandora at Disney’s Animal Kingdom will begin on May 2 for Cast Members, followed by Annual Passholders and DVC Members.

The very first people to experience the new World of Avatar will be Walt Disney World employees, when Cast Member Pandora previews start on May 2. Cast Members and Operating Participant (third party) employees who work at Disney’s Animal Kingdom can pick up the required tickets at the Cast Self Service Center within Pride Rock beginning April 3 for the first round of Pandora previews on May 2-4.

On March 24, Walt Disney World emailed invitations to Annual Passholders, allowing them to sign up for Pandora previews, to be held between May 13 and 22. Like the Cast Member previews, Annual Passholders were asked to select a 2-hour time slot to visit Pandora, and were able to register for friends and family members linked to their My Disney Experience account.
