So far the good to go days for CMs have matched the AP days. CMs can see them on the calendar when they go to make a reservation.

This one was surprising. I saw the news about the merchandise VQ on May 1st and my Dad wanted a reservation, but none were available (Main Entrance Pass). Then an hour later, it's a good to go day. Whatever, Disney. Why make this so annoying!

Les Halles is gonna get a lot busier!

I was poking around the Internet Archive again, looking for something else, and stumbled into a page where someone had tracked UPC and release dates for the MBBP. The Brer Set is listed with a May 1998 release, and indicates multiple versions, which may refer to the difference in eye color. I...

I was into the Disney MBBP back in the day. Trying to use the Internet Archive to look back at the old websites, but a lot of pages weren't archived. Can't seem to find one that is good with release dates, but I did find a News update from October 1998 of someone getting their order of the...

Yep. As well as what Universal tried with Jimmy Fallon and Fast and the Furious. But neither of those rides were popular enough to stress test a new system. I’m curious what they have planned for Epic Universe, as I expect Super Nintendo World is going to change the calculus somewhat on who...

You were part of the same exchange with a specific poster who did say DAS users are simply people who would have been in the standby line without it. Which I disagreed with as well and explained why. I was repeating it, to infer again, it was incorrect because Disney wouldn’t be making these...

Although… if we believe the assertion that everyone with DAS would be in the standby line without it. Or we believe Disney can honestly accommodate the needs of DAS users with different standby procedures… then it wouldn’t change anything at all. Just where individual people were before the...

Not all of them would be in the standby line. If you believe what many people, including yourself have said... if the only option available to them was the standby line... they would have to SKIP the attraction, altogether. This is the mistake that people keep making about any of the line skip...

At least Peter Pan has the excuse of having been built in 1971. But Navi, Frozen, RoTR, FOP... these are 21st century attractions, which some Industrial Engineer, should have shot up a hand, and said, "This capacity is grossly insufficient for the attendance targets we want to hit by promoting...

And if people have a hard time believing it, they can work at it from the other way. If a park has 35,000 daily guests, 8% equates to 2,800 people. Assuming they aren't alone and using a typical average party size of 3, you get 8,400 people as an estimate of people benefiting from a DAS pass...

How about this. We know attendance is an issue. What if it isn't just about prices, but people who refuse to buy Genie+ / ILL are getting sick and tired of slow moving standby lines, especially when the LL backs up and the merge CM starts holding the standby for several minutes, or letting one...

But that's not what the webpage says. There is no mention of non-developmental disabilities. They could have saved themselves a lot of grief and other guests a lot of anxiety by referring to some procedure for people with other types of disabilities. The failure to do that, leaves what else...

So logistics... if we take this at face value, seems like a natural part of Disney's expectations is to direct more people to wheelchairs / scooters and use the regular line. And they also expect that people (some of them who may be using these scooters and wheelchairs) to quickly, and easily...

This is a beautiful THRC. More of this, please.
