    And now closes at Epcot closing time of 9pm. No longer the 11pm they used to have for WS.

    I think this is also a factor. The last few years the almost every building especially ride buildings haven't had the A/C blasting like before. MMRR had almost stagnant air last year. This year was better but nowhere the flow and colder temps of years before.

    Not everything is open during early entry either. More than half of each park isn't open until 9am or whenever that park opens.

    Add to this the lack of product development in terms of increasing capacity, innovation, immersion, etc. Instead all Disney management did was put everything behind a paywall and jack prices on 30-50 year old rides while not maintaining them. This current management is great at one...

    News The Walt Disney Company Board of Directors Extends Robert A. Iger’s Contract as CEO Through 2026

    Right...how about the lights in the hallway in the que that went out for a while? New ride huh? I thought Bob Ego said they provide a "Premium" product vs Six Flags or Universal. Premium cost means your parks should be immaculate, clean, well kept and not falling apart. You and Bob Ego v2...

    They didn't do that. They already built it in Shanghai so they took the "Iger Disney" path and cloned it at MK. 5+ years and already showing it's age and decay on the outside for ride that just opened.

    Also hard to be in the "bubble" if you are staring at your phone all day long. With all the notifications from email, facebook, etc., the illusion of the "bubble" is shattered by the mere fact that Disney wants you to look at your phone all day to get Genie+, make food orders and purchases...
