    Mickey and Minnie's Runaway Railway confirmed

    Sorry, I didn't mean to infer that OHRC is the same number for each attraction, they differ drastically based on the attraction.

    Mickey and Minnie's Runaway Railway confirmed

    Theoretical headcount is a perfect mathematical number. Operational is 90% of that. Actual is 90% of that.

    News Flight of Passage Fire?

    For NFPA and FFPC, that exclusion is for certain types of occupancies. For Reedy Creek, "there's no getting around it" without a site specific request, which I've never seen approved without structural (or thematic) impossibility. And even then, it's pretty close to 5' from the door.

    Rumor The EPCOT Hotel

    I disagree. I asked Tony Baxter one time what the biggest thing he regretted not doing, and it was hotels themed to the adjacent lands in World Showcase.

    Rumor Flight of Passage foundation cracks?

    The last time we stayed on property, we made a digital recording of the music from this channel. Now we play it whenever we take a nap, because it fits so perfectly.
