Yeah we're thinking of going this week and also again in february. My hope and assumption is the same. That they are waiting till after the holidays - and might have it done by the time we go in February. Hopefully! 🤞

Any news on this lately? Was hoping they would do it quick and get the dream lights back up. Obviously VERY wishful thinking. 🤣

Keep in mind that theme park attendance has been starting to trend toward the latter half of the year as opposed to the summer months, in florida. The Parks only been open a few months. It is undoubtedly a huge success. They have done some incredible work and in some ways rivals Disney...

Lol give it time. Park is absolutely incredible. Just because some people that go to the theme park once every 10 years rated it low because they had to wait in a huge line doesn't mean it's not a great Park...

The explanation is that it's an excuse / scapegoat. I think this is a brilliant move for disney. While they're attendance is down and epic universe is a huge hit why not alienate your potential guests even further by raising prices?

Something being popular doesn't mean that most people enjoy it. That's why there's 30 genres of TV shows and channels, etc. You're on a forum to discuss things related to disney and it's parks / resorts. It's not about self-importance, it's about discussing the topic at hand. Let's use your...

I don't think Disney has the luxury of not attempting another rise of the resistance level attraction with this expansion. They know that Epic is a big threat to their attendance and they need something to draw crowds. All of these things they're doing are direct response to Epic. A couple of...

So are concerts, but everybody's complaining non-stop about the annoying music in one of Epcot's recently refurbished areas. It ruins the entire feel of the area and just doesn't seem like it belongs at all. It's not about whether something is popular, it's whether it belongs where they're...

I would love to hear people's predictions on how they think this new area is going to turn out. Encanto Ride: After Tiana's disaster I'm not sure I trust Disney to make great dark rides anymore. My concern is that it will be a screen fest. I'm also predicting it's going to be a 3D ride...

So you think MORE than 20% of the Grand Floridians guests on average go to a bar at the resort? The bars would be overflowing with people. There are plenty of places to get a drink, putting a bar in the middle of the lobby of one of the most iconic resorts on property is a travesty. But based...

Okay so using your own logic, if two out of every 10 guests wanted them to put a large beer kiosk right in front of the Magic kingdoms Castle they should do it because people want it and other beer kiosks and bars are crowded? That is essentially what you're saying. Wdw is supposed to be...

Www is post walt. I'm not sure you really understand what you're saying. You're basically making the argument that Walt's legacy, everything he stood for, his vision, his guidelines, etc should all just be tossed away because he's been gone for a very long time. In other words, tell me you're...

Your reply is very interesting. If you take the mindset of "Disney is just a vacation destination, just like any other place / hotel" - then your comment is 100% valid and on point. However, Disney is very much NOT supposed to be like every other vacation destination. That is straight from...

I mean anything is possible. But if guests request ridiculous things that ruin locations for the majority of the guests, Disney shouldn't do it. Let's just recognize this as what it is. It's Disney taking a piece of real estate within a resort lobby and commercializing it at the detriment of...

I haven't posted here in ages but had to come out of retirement. I am only seeing the updates on what's happening at Grand Floridian today. I mean, WOW...what a disaster. A classy, warm, classic, gorgeous lobby now has a huge BAR in it 🤣! And they're adding a modern looking lounge. Just what...
