I think it will be more efficient and a much better overall experience than the monorail. I do love the monorail from a novelty standpoint but if I’m honest it’s not good as a mode of transportation. The monorail will always have a slight edge in terms of the aesthetic but that only compensates...

It will be far better than monorail access. I expect this to be clear within 6 months of launch.

Looks awesome to me. I’m probably in. I’m pretty sure if the Grand Floridian was being revealed the same complaints would be heard: “Not themed enough, just looks like an upscale Victorian hotel”. Well yeah, it’s supposed to.

What many people fail to realize about why the gondola is so economic and efficient is that for ~80% of its run, it has essentially no physical footprint. Wishing for the WEDWay is silly. It’s not even a competitor to the gondola in terms of efficiency of transportation for the dollar.

The most recent Behind the Magic video confirmed that Riviera will be themed in the style of great resorts of the European coasts.

Great video! I love being there with my kids too.

Actually, I doubt that Disney wants to hit capacity. What they want to hit is that capacity measure that you described - guests not necessarily happy with the crowds, but not so much so that they don't return. Better yet, they move their visit to a lower capacity day. I suspect park capacity...

I agree that some guests are leaving, and there might be a future guest issue they don't see coming. But if the MK adds people eaters, it's just going to add more capacity that will quickly get filled by guests. Why would Disney let that future capacity not be utilized at the same level it is now?

Exactly. Disney has capacity utilization down to a science.

People are happy with the current crowd levels, otherwise attendance would drop. If and when Disney adds capacity, it will just get filled with more visitors so it's basically at the same level as now.

What people fail to realize is that crowding levels are determined by guest experience and tolerance. Guests show they are satisfied with the current crowd levels given the current attractions/capacity. If they weren't satisfied, attendance would drop. If Disney builds more attractions resulting...

What people fail to realize is that crowding levels are determined by guest experience and tolerance. If Disney builds more attractions resulting in a higher capacity, the parks will crowd at the same relative levels as now, unless Disney limits crowds by raising prices substantially higher...
