They can and often do get group discounts for everything from tickets to rooms, same with Argentinians (I delt much more with the latter at my location than Brazilians).

Shocking IAAPA's members nominated Starlight, but they more or less consider entertainment to be the redheaded stepchild of the industry, so that makes sense.

I've seen other lawyers advertise in both those fields, including in relevant business journals around here... This guy, nope.

Not according to his LinkedIn, although God knows if he uses it.

I've never seen an AA move so much that their hair literally falls out - and the ride remains open! You can see her hair by Naveen's shoe!

I met Mr. Holt a few years ago, when he first brought out his baby Yoda AA (it's quite squishy). He was pretty happy with this arrangement (as I imagine anyone would be in his position). Disney seems to agree, or they'd bring it much more in-house. They could afford to. Bruce is apparently...

I've never heard of Sunrise Bank (or any of those banks), or Woods & Woods. And I see a ton of banking commercial and lawyer commercials on local tv, radio, even the side of the bloody Lynx buses.

Imagineer as a title also extends to Disney Live Entertainment since Imagineering subsumed it years ago. And their higher ups, in my experience, love to point out that they should be called Imagineers as well. (I have my own thoughts tied to that subsument but that's just me.) Personally, as...

I'm not sure I agree with you... Universal has multiple Epic expansions somewhere between concept and development. Full bore replacements are likely in the medium term for multiple lands across its two existing parks as well (3? 4? Could be more.). Disney has... 1 land retheme at AK (with 1 new...

A number of them either left to do their own thing or went to the other side of I-4 (lured in by at least one new major park after Epic within the next few years, possibly at least one more, plus other projects of various size). The best thing Disney has is a questionable licensing commitment in...

I've heard a few stories of executives doing this decades ago to Eisner (not Horizons related), but it's not something I've heard WDI does much or has done much...

Or people like me who can't ride them...

According to a friend of mine who's at MK right now they're shortening M&Gs due to heat... It feels like 83.

On the other hand we did get back most of the summer when they redid the blackout structure, which by comparison is not a horrific trade.

As a hyper-local to the parks... I've never had a problem booking one. Sometimes, like for Starlight's premiere, I have to do it more than a day or two in advance, but I very easily can do so before getting into the car (or during the ride over) if I wanted. Most times I go after 2 anyway so it...
