    That was a false story....it certainly wasn't noises reported by customers.

    Is attendance really down at WDW this or…

    Do YOU realise they have had all last night and all morning pre- opening to get the ride working. Seeing as the ride hasn't been run since park close yesterday, there won't magically be some problem that wouldn't have surfaced last night..and if there was, they should have been in early enough...

    Yep, they are hardly going to say "the park owners 1)couldn't be bothered to make sure the rude is working before the park opens 2) would rather put their staff in in areas where they can coin in more money 3) The owners don't care they've already got your money 4) They are incompetent 5) they...

    I actually feel sorry for the staff at the front of these attractions...they are taking the brunt of complaints while earning a pittance while the people responsible are sat on their fat pay checks getting no retribution for their actions.

    At epcot this morning...Frozen down since before the park opened- staff have no idea why or when it it will open. Well done again Disney...a weekend and a relatively simple major attraction isn't open. And they wonder why people ate getting fed up. Funny old thing...they never delay the...

    Is attendance really down at WDW this or…

    Yep, Disney (and everyone else) used Covid as a perfect excuse to save money on wages. We all just accepted it and hence why they do it more and more. I checked in the hotel last week and specifically asked for Housekeeping every day, which they obliged. Don't be the sheep in this equation as...

    Wow...so you're saying the price increases are even worse than we thought? If the entrance price was $120 that means the entrance price was actually $95...so if you then say its $150 entrance and add the G+ on of $25...the real price to get in has gone from $95 to $175...things are therefore...

    Id say 50% is way way over estimated...I don't know a single person who has had a rise in the last 12/24 months that's matched inflation. Id say 1 or 2 % of people have had regular wage rises the last 12/24 months in line with inflation...in the UK anyway.

    News Test Track to be reimagined

    Personal opinion here but, I think a Back To The Future ride could work perfectly in Test Track. Although it's a Universal Baby so clearly not possible legally...but just a pipe dream.

    News 'Encanto' and 'Indiana Jones'-themed experiences at Animal Kingdom

    A replacement for the whole Dinosaur land was way way overdue. A terribly dated and unnecessarily uncomfortable ride with 80s looking Dinosaurs and a baron land around it. They need a total revamp and ASAP as it is becoming a ghost town part of the park.

    Is attendance really down at WDW this or…

    Yeah, this seams to be a recurring theme. The parks themselves not being any quieter in terms of footfall and wait times, but so called extra curricular stuff being a lot quieter.. dining reservations, purchases in the shops etc. I think that makes sense - a lot of people really still want to...

    Is attendance really down at WDW this or…

    Experience I guess. We've been the same 2 weeks in September for the past 8 years (except 2020) and we get a feel for how busy the parks are from walking round, queueing for drinks, having lunch, waiting in lines etc. We visit at least 2 parks a day, we've done all 4 twice so far this...

    Is attendance really down at WDW this or…

    It isn't, that's my point. Except Covid, have booked the SAME weeks Orlando holidays for years and years...so we have a good idea if a park is quieter or busier than the previous date the previous year. I've not noticed the actual parks any quieter than previous years. I'd actually say it's...

    Is attendance really down at WDW this or…

    Was in Magic Kingdom from 3pm yesterday, it was busy...certainly no quieter than it has been the previous 2 years we've been at the same time. Id love to say it was dead because my holiday would be a lot easier if it was.

    Is attendance really down at WDW this or…

    Is this like for like though...comparing September to June and July isn't a comparison. I come to Orlando the same 2 or 3 times every year - Same weeks in Jan,May and September....(we missed may this year) but compared to exactly the same time last year, we have not noticed less people in the...

    Is attendance really down at WDW this or…

    Yep this. We were waiting outside Rise waiting for it to open for 20 minutes before the app said it was down. Surely it would benefit customer service if they had this info available immediately so they don't have to track across the pack to find it out. For some reason the organisation at...

    Lightning Lane at Walt Disney World

    Yeah, a lot of those smaller attractions we don't do any more as they aren't worth constantly doing. We were out at 1.15 to get to MK for Tron VQ. We never bought G+ Started 1) Frozen Rope Drop 8.30am (walk on) 2) Remy (20 mins) 3) Figment (walk on) 4) Soarin (15 mins) 5) Spaceship Earth...

    Been in the parks for 8 days now non stop, and I haven't witnessed any drop in attendance and wait times. To be honest, a lot of the time I've noticed it busier than previous years at the same time of year. Not sure where anyone is getting the parks are quieter. I'd probably say it's Disney...
