Meh. Disney doesn't seem to lose much sleep over downtime on attractions, anymore. They just need enough uptime to make sure the people with Premier LL passes, ILL, and VIP tours get a crack at it and if the rest miss out, I guess those folks'll learn to buy one of those options next time.

And this doesn't seem at all inconsistent with how they appeared to be doing things before paid LL came on the scene. they've clearly got a financial incentive to do it and I'm hardly a fan of current management but it doesn't seem like they've been doing anything out of the ordinary to juice...

Or they slot into group two.

In the existing two parks? Heck yeah they do. As for the new one, this is one of many things we're all wondering about but long-term, I imagine they will because this park was literally built from the ground up in a line-skip-scheme world. It's the only one in Florida that has been. We'll...

In the case of Haunted, who even cares about the masks on pistons? Keep 'em, remove 'em, replace them with tiny little pop-up Disney+ signs - I think it would be hard to ruin this ride.* The Dementors are a single part of a really big and immersive ride but they do stick out a little more. The...

The Imagineers have been getting their inspiration lately from 70's/80's Hanna Barbera rather than Disney animation, it would seem.

In seriousness, wonder if this will motivate Disney at all to "plus" Everest. It's been broken long enough they could probably replace it with something less complex and most people would think it's an upgrade rather than a half-a$$ed replacement to what was supposed to originally be working there.

It's a darn shame the name "Islands of Adventure" is already taken. I wonder if they could put Disney in front and change the park name to "Disney's Islands of Adventure®" to better reflect the direction they're moving in... or maybe they could call it "Disney's Continents of Adventure®". Or -...

Animals need taking care of and they can't sell ILL to them. I'd honestly be surprised to see any new live animal exhibits going into the park about animals ever again. I'm sure there are swaths of management that would love to downsize what they already have there, now.

I remember this discussion when it was approaching $100. These numbers are only taboo until they pass them and then suddenly, they're not anymore.

And Disney's actually really good in these situations. For the cast that choose to work (and they can be from all over property) they're allowed to bring their immediate family and pets to stay in a room through the storm, too, free of charge. For many, that's likely to be a safer option than...

I'm sure you were as shocked as me to see that. Not that it feels good.

Hey, at least we know they weren't rough with that poached chicken breast. Cruelty-free handling of disembodied animal protein should matter to us all. You just know they were slapping around that battered chicken breast they used in the sandwiches at ESPN Club - the admission is right there...

Someone blinked! Anyone who had doubt, now you know Disney had nothing to do with the pricing. 😉

Yeah but that's just to peel apart and throw at people. We're talking about food to eat.

Thank you! I was going to respond with verbiage that would have gotten me banned. You saved me! ;)

But this didn't start with G+, right? that's been an anecdotal thing for as long as I can remember.

If so, I bet there'll be an upcharge and he finds a way to work a "+" into the name of it!

This @lentesta guy, he's a crafty one!

Counter, counter point - my best trip ever was probably somewhere around the late 90's when they still had slow seasons, when basically all attractions could be relied on to be up outside of planned refurbishments, when Journey Into Imagination had not yet been gutted then left to rot and when...
