    Rumor New DAS System at Walt Disney World 2024

    This is purely anecdotal, but I had never paid any attention to DAS use prior to my trip this past December (the week prior to Christmas). But I was really surprised how many people were accessing LL queues during both MVMCP and Jollywood Nights - so much so that there were significant standby...

    “Something major” coming to DHS???

    Can confirm she's a mediocre drummer.

    Disney Genie and Genie+ at Walt Disney World

    That certainly seems to track with what's happened thus far. Hard to see how any advanced booking scheme wouldn't just fall back to the complaints about FP+.

    News Disney Park Pass System announced for Walt Disney World theme park reservations

    I can understand the 9th and 16th (since they are Saturdays) but the 18th and 19th seem strange (especially the 19th, which is a party day). Anything unusual going on those days?

    Disney Genie and Genie+ at Walt Disney World

    It's also the "handler required" model, which I have zero interest in. I don't want or need a tour guide, or to be whisked around backstage.

    News Tiana's Bayou Adventure - latest details and construction progress

    I'm absolutely ready to give it a chance! I truly hope it's a great ride and a worthy successor to Splash. But Disney hasn't really done themselves anything favors in disabusing the skeptics of their worst fears. So until then, let the comedy continue. ;)

    News Tiana's Bayou Adventure - latest details and construction progress

    Wait - an exciting and meaningful storyline that actually ties into the movie? Why would anyone want that?! Clearly what people want is an in-depth exploration of co-op food production techniques and a search for a rusty trumpet. I'm personally looking forward to the unexpected conflict...

    News Disney Jollywood Nights - Disney's Hollywood Studios Holiday Season ticketed event

    A buddy at work has a December trip planned (husband, wife, 16 year old) and we were just chatting about this event. He already had a HS planned for the day of one of the events so he went ahead and bought a party ticket with the reasoning that worst case (hopefully!) it can act as just an...

    News Disney Jollywood Nights - Disney's Hollywood Studios Holiday Season ticketed event

    Agreed - this all seems terribly vague. In true modern Disney fashion, the most detail we've gotten was a ton of useless information about the backgrounds of the people in charge of planning it.

    Is attendance really down at WDW this or…

    I'm curious if some of these deals may cannibalize holiday '23 bookings? I haven't done any deal comparisons for what's available Nov-Dec '23 and what's been popping up for '24, but would be interested to see if there is a spike in rebookings.

    Star Wars Land announced for Disney's Hollywood Studios

    A high volume C ticket (like the rumored cut "Bantha" transport") is definitely needed. But they could fix a ton of problems by simply building the sit down restaurant/show, and actually having characters and droids wandering around. As for what they should really do...expand the land and...

    Disney Genie and Genie+ at Walt Disney World

    Yes. Exactly this. Immediate entry ILL with variable, demand based pricing for all attractions. Clear, concise, and far simpler than any other ridiculous permutation they keep attempting. Just pull the band-aid already.

    How's the holiday season looking? Or are we too early to be even looking at that yet?

    Dinosaur has seen better days

    My recollection of riding the original Countdown to Extinction was that it was terrifying. So much so that I finally put my head down and closed my eyes (as a grown adult!) near the end of the ride. It just seemed like non-stop noise, flashes, and jump-scares. What the ride is now, by...

    Whats left of Chaepek ?

    Just some bones, bleaching in the sun. Not even a carcass is left.

    News Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser to permanently close this fall

    Trying new things is great, but the implementation displayed an audacious lack of perspective. Had they built a Star Wars Hotel such that it was actually connected to/built into Galaxy's Edge they could have kept a lot of the story and LARPing features but also made some of it somewhat more...

    Disney Genie and Genie+ at Walt Disney World

    This is exactly what I'm expecting. Pre-booking will likely be something like 24 hours in advance and limited to one selection. And all for an additional fee.
