Families that are picking up from Tiger Lair must plan to arrive early to have time to park and walk up to the Lair; otherwise, you will need to remain in the car rider lane until the traffic moves around and you can safely (without passing others) pull up and park for Tiger Lair. Please do not drive in the oncoming lane to access the parking lot. Tiger Lair is not a faster method for pickup, it is an option for families that want to park and walk up. We know it requires us to be patient as we wait in traffic. We encourage those that are choosing to access Tiger Lair to arrive early to ensure they can park. If the line is long and the parking lot is not accessible, we ask that families remain in their vehicles in the car rider line until the line moves forward and the parking lot can be accessed.
