    News Kali River Rapids Closing October 6 for Refurbishment at Disney's Animal Kingdom

    They opened an excellent brand new rapids ride about three years ago and there is Journey to Atlantis the water coaster thats been around for at least twenty years.

    News Kali River Rapids Closing October 6 for Refurbishment at Disney's Animal Kingdom

    Yes for me coming from the UK in November Florida feels significantly warmer than home! Shame that Kali will now be closed on our trip, but I'll get soaked at Islands of Adventure and Seaworld!

    News Kali River Rapids Closing October 6 for Refurbishment at Disney's Animal Kingdom

    The only closed ride will be Kali? Yes Primevil Whirl and Triceratops Spin are permanently closed but everything else is open. One 2nd thought, Zootopia 3D doesn't open to November actually so yes October has two closed attractions and then November is just one. You've still got 2x Avatar rides...

    MK New Beak and Barrel - Pirates of the Caribbean-themed lounge

    What was wrong with the drink? I'm guessing too sweet vanilla and not enough tart blackberry & lime?

    Rip Ride Rockit Permanently Closing August 18 2025

    I think new rollercoaster will be F&F. Can then use the current F&F bus system for a tour ride following the Ghostbusters. As noted though would be be better with some live effects though. Maybe reverse it so you do the bus part and then the current pre-shows are post-shows with physical effects?

    Thanksgiving Dinner at Wilderness Lodge: Artist Point vs. Whispering Canyon vs. other?

    I imagine this is because it isn't really AP anymore, it is a character meal so they just offer the same thing all the time because people come more for characters not food

    News Disney World's Port Orleans French Quarter Lobby to Be Refurbished Through September

    Most major hotel chains are moving to the smaller podiums rather than a solid barrier counter as they all think it is more personal to be able to connect with the person rather than having the barrier of the counter. That first pic above with the bank style windows is really imtimidating and not...

    Sci-Fi dine-in no longer serving handmade milkshakes, premade instead

    Does pre-frozen milkshake exist? I would have thought pre-made would be more like McDonald’s where a machine dispenses out ice cream made from a pre-mix soft-serve instead of being blended to order from hard packed ice cream.

    FastPass could SOLVE the DAS Delima!

    Isn't that exactly how DAS works anyway? You get a return time and come back at that time.

    Is this a real bus rule?

    Disney do inform people how to travel between places. Back when paper was more of a thing than the internet, we got a leaflet upon check-in at our resort which did exactly that. Even down to the fact that the best mode of transport between two resort hotels is via Disney Springs (or Downtown...

    Universal UK

    They did about 35 years ago. In fact they had two parks on opposite US coasts with no rollercoasters. But in terms of The Sphere, if you are sat inside for a concert or game, what benefit does having a screen on the outside make? If it’s a good quality arena then the advert screen makes zero...

    Universal UK

    The London resort plan was a terrible location for a theme park with badly congested road links (due to being next to the only crossing of the Thames for miles) and not enough existing rail infrastructure. Compare it to the new Universal plan which is close to a main road links to a motorway...

    Universal UK

    I’m surprised they didn’t already have it trademarked.

    Universal UK

    That was a really bad location which had a lot to do with it. Whereas Universal has chosen somewhere close to motorways and rail lines. Former brickworks. Should go I their favour as less chance to object compared to a new site.
