PHOTOS & VIDEO: Under the Sea – Journey of the Little Mermaid Ride at Magic Kingdom Re-Opens with Significant Changes
After being closed for a little over a month now, Under the Sea: Journey of the Little Mermaid at the Magic Kingdom re-opened yesterday with all of the changes we reported would be on the way several months ago:
A lot of black light is used in the ride now, and static fish figures have been added in some places
The Under the Sea sequence uses a lot of black light now, used to hide the lighting rigs and such above
There are also some static fish figures hanging in this section of the ride now

The human figures in the later scenes also received “real” flowing hair, opposed to the old rubber hair they once sported
Here’s our video of the ride with the changes in place:
