    News Guardians of the Galaxy Cosmic Rewind Virtual Queue and Lightning Lane status

    I really like the ride, but many people have issues with it. Thus, I’ve been thinking for about a year that they would go to standby/individual lightning lane anytime (my simple theory was that the more popular the ride was, the longer it would have virtual queue.). I wonder if there’s a new...

    Would the virtual queues be better as a lottery?

    We won 83 virtual queues and it only cost 27 grand!

    Would the virtual queues be better as a lottery?

    We did that once on our last trip. Actually got a BG for Guardians that was earlier than I would have liked. Also, regardless of luck vs skill I have other issues with getting up at 6:55 on vacation. Don’t like the system even when successful.

    My HS stacking attempt…what did I do wrong?

    I’ve just gone back to the old tried and true “rancid flatulence” stratagem to clear out ye olde queue.

    What is the best ride you have ever been on?

    Not my all time favorite, but very good. Too bad people didn’t understand that there was an attraction in MK that could actually traumatize little ones.

    $500 million for Cosmic Rewind,…why?

    The days of the long, languorous dark ride seem to be in the past.

    What’s the longest VQ has stayed on an attraction?

    $500 million for Cosmic Rewind,…why?

    I sent a bill to “EPCOT bigwig in charge of new rolly coasters” for 373 million. I called myself a “rebar contractor”. They paid it. So, I think I’m partly to blame.

    If you could implement 1 major change throughout the parks, what would it be?

    All the toilets in all the theme parks should be clogged up at all times. This would lead to lower crowds. Also, I have installed several elaborately themed port a potties (essentially hidden to the untrained eye) that I could finally charge exorbitant usage fees for. Could backfire I suppose...

    Is attendance really down at WDW this or…

    But you can forget at 1 PM, look at your phone at 1:08 think “Oh $@&?”, and then join a VQ that has a boarding group number that will likely overlap with your early dinner when it comes up.

    Is attendance really down at WDW this or…

    Based on my observation there was great variability in how aggressive lightning lane folk were being boarded. And how many LL folk were showing up during your time in the queue. But, even when the LL flow seemed steady it seemed like there was variability in how quickly stand by was loaded...

    Is attendance really down at WDW this or…

    Not going through all our group texts, but our last park day was MK on 05/17. We were 6 adults and constantly exchanging info as we often weren't doing the same thing. Peter Pan - 9:09 AM, posted wait 60 min, actual wait 14 min Jungle Cruise (no time stamp on texts after PP) - posted wait 50...

    Is attendance really down at WDW this or…

    We were there from 05/12 - 05/18. The waits tended to be 2/3 of what was posted. These trends are actually reflected in the touring plans app. @lentesta There are a few exceptions, but its generally true. I've been timing WDW waits since about 1980 and historically there have been times when...

    Is attendance really down at WDW this or…

    We were there from the 12th-18th and were constantly texting the real wait times. My kids brought their SOs and we wanted to make sure that no one bought genie plus or ILL based on nonsense.

    News Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser Permanently Closed Fall 2023

    Like many, when "Star Wars Galaxy's Edge featuring Blue and Green Milk with Some Exciting Characters from Various Star Wars Movies and the Like" opened, we did some of those things on our phones for free. I expected something to more to happen. Incredibly lame. At least it wasn't part of a super...

    News Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser Permanently Closed Fall 2023

    I'm a half hour from the end and its one of the greatest youtube videos I've ever seen. She's absolutely brilliant. Look up her video about the Hallmark party youtube channel. My son pointed me to it. It's from about 3 years ago, I believe. Only 18 minutes long. The first time I watched it I...

    Lightning Lane at Walt Disney World

    That would be awful. July 3 - MK bottle of water = $6.99. July 4 - MK bottle of water = $107.26. July 4, during fireworks - bottle of water, cost unknown. However, iPad people are conveniently located and set up to help you take out a quick loan against your mortgage. Further, whimsically...

    Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance

    Full disclosure, I was 2.5 years old at the time of my first visit to MK in 1972. I didn't always play super close attention to things and there was a 3 or 4 year period in the 90s when I didn't set foot on property. I put out all those caveats because I'm not a 100% sure I'm correct (I know...

    News Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser Permanently Closed Fall 2023

    Some attractions never accrue enough success to be shuttered. The Haunted Mansion is an example of this. However, the Galactic Starcruiser's success rate was so high, its already closed! Huzzah! Huzzah! They are on a roll with stuff like this. Rivers of light, the alien invasion, taco ship...
