    New Enhancements, Dining Options Coming to Disney’s BoardWalk

    I don't think it's outsourcing either that's the problem. Disney gives the outsourcer a budget to use and they are restricted on what they can do and stay in budget. The theming that we all want, and what Disney should have, cost money. It's obvious Disney does not want to pay for it anymore...

    Reservation problems

    What about an ad/popup blocker add-in in the browser. I have Ad block Plus and it sometimes cause web pages to get squirrely even if they don't have any ads.

    Is attendance really down at WDW this or…

    They are basically establishing a base line on what they have to keep working to get the minimum guest satisfaction numbers. If the effect isn't on the baseline, it won't be fixed..... Got to divert money to Disney+ at all cost.

    Is attendance really down at WDW this or…

    I'm coming to the conclusion that they don't have enough of these people. They are staffed to do the overnight checks, but not staffed to complete the checks and "fix" anything that comes up. This is why rides don't open on time in the morning. They are bogged down fixing something that they...

    Gideon's Bakehouse at Disney Springs Temporarily Closed

    So who would be in charge of the A/C system and getting it working? Disney or Gideon's?

    That just goes to show you that they built the wrong thing at the wrong place.

    News David Duffy named Vice President, Live Entertainment at Walt Disney World Resort

    Are you sure it's only two? When I saw the show in December, they only had two of the four stilt walkers. They were also missing four of the animals.

    News David Duffy named Vice President, Live Entertainment at Walt Disney World Resort

    Don't everyone get your hopes up too high. While it's nice that he seems to have done good things at DLP, unless his appointment came with a budget increase, then nothing will be changing in entertainment. Remember all the cuts in entertainment we have had have been for one reason only, to save...

    Zach Riddley promoted to Global Creative Strategy Executive

    Why am I getting deja vu. This seems like a tactic that a company I used to work for years ago would do. When they wanted to get rid of someone without paying severance, they would create an obscure meaningless title/job and put them into it. Usually it would be a staff position to a...

    News Return of the Walt Disney World tram fleet tracker

    I can understand what your saying, but you would be surprised how many spots open up in the closer rows earlier than you would think. The real issue is that by using those far left lots, its a tremendous distance for people who are mobility challenged to walk, just to get to the front...

    Rumor Higher Speed Rail from MCO to Disney World

    Brightline has additional coaches on order with Siemens to lengthen their existing trains. Sure sounds like they think the money will be there to pay for them. As an FYI, the stations are designed to handle trains that double their current length.

    News New Polynesian Resort DVC villas building to open 2024

    Anyone want to make a bet on whether that wood graining actually shows up? I have a feeling that it will be like the monorail station. All the concrete is painted chocolate brown and left that way.

    Delayed opening monorail

    Maybe they are performing overnight maintenance that requires a little more time to complete, hence the late start of operation? Like switching out a transformer. The overnight window isn't that large and sometimes things take longer than the window allows.

    What will happen to the old Fort Wilderness cabins?

    They last time that they swapped out cabins, didn't they sell them? I though I remember a post of someone showing some that they stumbled across at a campground somewhere.

    Check who else is flying from Philly. Spirit and Frontier have moved into some of the NE airports going to MCO, causing Southwest to cut their number of flights. Why anyone would fly those two airlines is beyond me. Also their planes seat more now. Between cramming in more seats and switching...
