    WDW with transparent masks?

    I would prioritize comfort for Disney and if it's someone I know, I've always felt like I could read reactions even with a mask on. The clear ones I've seen have all appeared uncomfortable and kind of horrifying to look at.

    I hope this post is satire.

    Disney World Rain Queue Stoppage? (Angry)

    This thread reminds me of one of my most fun moments in WDW! Last day of the trip we got a late flight out and went to HS to spend the day. We'd been running around the park having a blast and without about 90 minutes until park close (and when we needed to be on the way to the airport), we got...

    The Tipping Point For Change

    Interesting perspectives. My overall feel from these boards is that a large number of people here are those who are angry about everything Disney does, but still keep going. It creates a sort of overall sour tone in many of the discussions.

    I never thought of this, but it makes plenty of sense. It's certainly an improvement to acknowledge their appearance as it most likely was and not of the outdated cartoon variety.

    Wow. I like Dinosaur, but i don't think it competes at all with Indy. I'd be sad if Dinosaur went away, though. I actually don't hate Dinoland when it's fully functioning with the meet & greets, though I have a strong bias towards the Ducks.

    I came here because I saw this story and was curious if anyone knew more. Just closing down a land out of nowhere like it's a Quiznos in a bad neighborhood doesn't seem like a realistic thing to happen. There's been talk forever about revamping Dinoland, but with all of the construction delays...

    Caribbean Beach Pricing

    Usually my wife and I stay at Pop, but my father wants to plan a larger family trip and we were discussing moving up to a moderate. Caribbean Beach seemed perfect for us and when I checked room rates initially a few months ago, they were pretty reasonable ($220ish per night). Off-peak rates and...

    As magical express ends, can we expect cheaper rooms or are we just paying more and getting less?

    This is kind of the opposite of that, though. Right? They're not going broke. They're cutting expenses and raising prices and still can't slow down demand. Also the "get woke, go broke" phrase is not economically accurate. Target demographics have always been roughly age 25-50 for any business...

    Do we still need park reservations when back to full capacity??

    What's wrong with data analysts? Disney has to make operational decisions. I'd prefer they have more data to make more effective and efficient decisions. Would you prefer they just make decisions on someone's gut or instinct? Would you run an empire like the Disney Parks without analyzing data?

    Do we still need park reservations when back to full capacity??

    This is why you have data analysts. I'm guessing that they'll be able to break down number of guests who will rebook their pass, how they'll be distributed, how long they'll stay, how many will park hop later in the day, how that group will be distributed, and on and on

    Is a fifth gate even possible?

    That had never occurred to me, but you're right. That would be a ton easier if Anaheim decided they wanted it to happen and helped out.

    Is a fifth gate even possible?

    They had that area of Downtown Disney that was supposed to be expanded, then there was trouble with Anaheim over permits or taxes or something and it didn't happen. Now I believe they're trying to get permission to expand however they'd like without city approval for specific land use. Something...

    Is a fifth gate even possible?

    I agree that you'd cannibalize your own business with a 3rd location. I don't think building up Disneyland is realistic. You need space for expansion and resorts to create the bubble. They just don't have it available. The only real expansion option I could see is to continue building up WDW...

    Disney, DONT bring back 180-day-in-advance restaurant reservations.

    The 180 days discussion reminds me of the "don't bring back FastPass" debate. No matter what system you use, the same number of people will be successful in getting what they want. There are X number of reservations and X number of ride spots in a period of time. Shifting how they are...
