The only ride I could never get with FP+ as an onsite customer was FOP. That was it. I think my best day with FP+ was using 14, on all levels of rides - headliners, shows and smaller, less-intense rides. Our average trip was 5 park days.
Yes.
For starters 2 or 3 Big rides a day is more than you are getting with Genie unless you are both buying Genie+ and paying for ILL and even with that God only know when your return will be…
For my family and your average guest it's too much planning to visit a glorified Amusement park. I don't care that it's one of the best parks or highest attended park. At the end of the day it's still a Theme Park.
More net attractions is needed but we all know that will take years to happen. Even if they add a lot more capacity you still can't make a skip the line system that works for everyone. It's a reason most parks price it so high.
Agree 100%... Especially when my best trips were done with little to no planning. They're punishing people for not being able to keep up with their own attendance and not having enough capacity.
Attractions, restaurants and extended park hours... They just need more of it all.
do i agree that a Disney trip requires planning 100% i would be a fool to say otherwise but as ive stated it is not the only place that requires planning and i understand disney wanting to make guests happy (coough couogh wink wink) but again how they thought this was the answer is beyond comprehension and again not buying the story especially when park pass reservations are going nowhere, adr's are going nowhere so now you created this absolute debacle and people still have to plan almost everything.
It won’t improve any while they sit on their hands doing nothing. The reason it will take so long is because they have sat on their hands (and profits) so long.
i dont think anyone is bickering we are all having a pretty much adult conversation and if anything we ALL are in agreement that capacity is the main issue along w lack of entertainment and reduced hours.... fact is tho we have 2 systems to compare to and 1 is by far superior than the other that is simply a fact based on pretty much everyone who have used the product and based on insiders saying disney is trying to figure a solution out.... was FP perfect no but what is? unless you plan on paying 3-4-5K who knows how much they charging these days for Plaid service. A shell game is a good way to say it but again it seemed to work "best" yes everyone has different results etc but again when you have 10's of thousands of guests a day and millions per year its going to happen...
In testing and in theory it works. What they didn't expect is everyone and their cousin all buying it.
People need to stop thinking that you MUST skip the line to visit Disney. Yes it's their fault people got used to skipping lines for free and it was available to everyone. They have to limit availability in some way. Either by capping sales or pricing people out.
Nah, you're just defending the indefensible
Not at all. Has nothing to do with that. It's how my family tours parks. We don't do Character meals as it's over priced crap food. Rarely eat on property or stay in the "Bubble". Cheaper and better options off site.
Both please
so you feel people didnt like to plan in advance but are going to prefer to wait in hour long lines instead and that is going to raise guest satisfaction by pricing majority of people out or as you suggest as well capping the availability where even if you want to pay you cant? Good luck w that model & dealing with that PR mess
Less people in the lightning lane means less wait in standby. And guest satisfaction? If that truly mattered they would do one simple gesture for them by making park hours longer again.
