There's almost a 100% chance of thunderstorms and rain this afternoon and evening in Orlando. I can understand why alot of folks may be holding off.

Yep - it is. Now just a bunch of guests who were given 'return tickets' to get through - so it still may be sluggish for awhile.

Yep.... it's down... :confused:

:banghead:

This is news, folks. Like it or not. I think it will be a topic of discussion for the foreseeable future - and it will continue to be relevant until either Universal backs off aggressively investing in their parks - or Disney starts addressing their blatant issues in a very real way. Expect...

I have taken a break after being a Disney passholder for years. The prices just keep climbing and the perks chiseled away. I have switched to a Universal annual pass for this year. I live in downtown Orlando, so it's a quicker trip, the perks and discounts are far more significant, and the pass...

The removal of the BAH has been a rumor since 2009 (the start of this thread). That's over 4 years. I can't help but think it is here to stay. And to be honest -imo- WDW has bigger fish to fry at this point. Right now the hat is just an eyesore - The fact DHS is 25 years old and still a...

If today's Miceage update is accurate - I read it as no new announcements for WDW in the foreseeable future. Only for CA and Tokyo. Nice. Real nice. Thank God Universal is on the ball and do enough expansion and projects for both resorts. I don't see myself renewing my Disney AP in the next 10...

Considering how Disney likes to space out major announcements, I'm guessing Disney just bought themselves a good 6-9 more months before announcing anything coming to WDW. I am absolutely blown away at how indifferent and passive the company is with WDW. Any excuse not to improve their parks...

This is so true, and I was thinking the same thing. Of course, Disney has no plans for opening anything in 2014 or 2015 (and possibly even 2016) beyond the mine train.... so probably not even worth them looking into how they can be more efficient with construction - or even restructuring...

Honestly - I would carve out at least 3 days for Universal. I hadn't been to Universal in a few years when I renewed my annual pass last year. And I spent a day just trying to catch up on the attractions that were new since I had been there last. And with the second Harry Potter phase opening...

You seem to have A LOT of unreasonable defense for Disney. Excited new cast member? George's husband? Mommy blogger? Just askin'. These are the only reasons why I can imagine you so passionate and "facts" obsessed about something like this. It's an incredible amount of energy on your part. You...

We think alike. As a local, I have let my Disney annual pass expire and got a Universal pass instead for the first time in over 8 years. Today, you are hardpressed to find someone locally with a Disney annual pass. However, you are now hardpressed to find a local WITHOUT a Universal annual...

I am not sure how to respond to this. It's the same argument I commented on, just stated differently. However, I think you are misguided on a couple things - there have been several people on these boards who have NOT been waived fees due to a conflict or emergency. Apparently, Disney is...

So that makes it right? I dare say AT&T gets away with this due to lack of alternatives - or the alternatives have the same policies. If Universal makes vacationing on their property less of a hassle for a family of 5 - with more flexibility, great options, and an environment that makes the...
