    News New Event Space and Luxury Rooms Coming to Walt Disney World Swan and Dolphin by Summer 2026

    I'm actually kind of surprised that Disney has not leaned in more on the whole convention center gig and are seemingly ceding this to Marriott. Boardwalk, Yacht/Beach, Grand Floridian are basically large meeting/ball rooms. Coronado and Contemporary are much larger spaces, but each have their...

    Walt Disney World Holiday Season 2024

    That makes perfect sense. If you want the Disney Difference it will cost you extra. You're right, all the guests are distracted with buying their premier passes to notice the cutbacks.

    News Disney’s Fiscal Full Year and Q4 2024 Earnings Results Webcast

    Well then you can share in specificity like @PREMiERdrum did as to what and where exactly is shuttered. Otherwise you're really not contributing anything valuable other than saying I'm right and you're wrong. (which seems to be your MO)

    News Disney’s Fiscal Full Year and Q4 2024 Earnings Results Webcast

    The available room nights includes DVC resorts. The occupancy rate in the report does not differentiate cash room, its counts it as the whole domestically and internationally.

    News Disney’s Fiscal Full Year and Q4 2024 Earnings Results Webcast

    So does temporarily out of service mean entire sections of Coronado, PO, AKL, Pop, AOA that never reopened post pandemic? Or is it a room that is out for a day because the shower doesn't work? I'm betting that it's the latter.

    Occupancy numbers mean nothing when you shutter large portions of your resort hotels.

    News Big changes coming to EPCOT's Future World?

    Ambitious but not practical designs coupled with rush deadlines. Underground lighting is tricky, especially in high traffic areas. These were custom built fixtures that were already broken on day 1, they had no chance. Even the commercially available well lights that surround the perimeter...

    News Big changes coming to EPCOT's Future World?

    You're being very diplomatic with your headline. You need to remove the "h" and "f" in "Shift", then remove "in" and it would be more accurate. So the "shift" in design, is basically cap it off and abandon it and give it the Yeti treatment...

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

    This is better than a $43 Slice of Cake from Ye Olde Cake Bake Shoppe. Bob doing his own thing to extend his tenure as CEO or CO-CEO at the same time mucking up the BOD finding an external candidate because none of the internal C-Suite Fab-4 could executive themselves out of a paper bag. What...

    New Enhancements, Dining Options Coming to Disney’s BoardWalk

    The last consideration, if there even was one at all, for this restaurant was thematic cohesion. It was just a matter of matching an empty space to a prospective tenant. If this were situated at Disney Springs, I don't think it would get as much attention as it's getting now, but it certainly...

    New Enhancements, Dining Options Coming to Disney’s BoardWalk

    Here's the reality, they're a third party restaurant leasing their space, the initial pricing got a lot of negative PR at launch, which has stuck with them, and the crowds aren't materializing. I don't even think they are on the Disney ADR system yet or even plan to be soon. As much as I...
