Full disclosure, I am a person with ADHD and anxiety, and I do make full use of DAS. I just don't agree with it being available or existing. I think that the parks should have the ability to make their own system, and that people should be mature enough to be told no, and should be responsible...

Yeah, that makes me wonder why they even have the 60 day limit in the first place. If the reason for the 60 day limit is that circumstances might change and you might not need the accommodation if you get healed, then why do you just get to keep saying "I want to renew?" It seems to me that they...

Wow, so much wrong with this post. Where do I begin? Six Flags has a terrible system for a terrible chain of parks -- I've been to every Six Flags park other than Great Escape and Six Flags Mexico. I think that what you might mean is that its more advantageous for people with disabilities...

I know this may be an unpopular opinion in times like these, but I just wonder why personality accountability and common sense isn't considered. If somebody can't handle walking around on their own two feet all day, and/or can't wait in long lines for whatever reason, why don't those people just...

As 100% majority shareholder, I think that my first step would be hiring the best CEO that could help maximize return on equity and minimize debt leverage. Since I would not want my wealth tied up in one investment, over time I would sell off shares so that I could diversity into index funds...

No. Remember you're going to Florida, not Chicago. This isn't a bad season to go. September-October is amazing season to go. December-April are awful times to go. Remember, its really, really freezing from December-March up north, but its manageable to gorgeous up here. There's no free lunch...

Maybe in the back of people's minds they knew that 9/11 was pretty much just political theatre to capitalize on xenophobia so that the regime could make it look like they were doing something. Terrorism is the ultimate boogeyman, when in reality is kills so few compared to other forms of death...

I mean at this point, if you're already vaxxed and boosted, and you still got a bad case, can't you just argue that there's really no way to truly avoid it? You'll get it at Disney, or you'll get it in your day to day life. You did the right thing by staying up to date on your vaccinations, but...

It also gives you full park access for 200+ days a year even at the Pixie level.

TTD will likely never open again. They already shipped the trains off to Knotts so that they can be used for parts for Xcelerator.

Cedar Point is going to be very dependent on weather. It follows a lot of the regional park logic, so the GP will just stay home when they see clouds in the sky, and pack in every inch when its a lovely day out. You may have just hit a nice day. I'd say that 2021 was the revenge year for CP...

The only thing that blackout dates affects is admission to the parks. Otherwise, all of the other auxiliary pass benefits are good 365 days a year. So your discounts and parking will be good any day of the year. While it may seem farfetched that you would pay $140 for a on a blackout date just...

I'd say to not worry so much about "capacity" but be more concerned with actual observed throughput. Disney and Universal tend to be better about approaching their capacity, but a lot of the B&Ms and coaster designers may boast of an "1800 GP per hour capacity" but really get more 600 or so. The...

I think that the reality is that this is just the difference between Europe and America. As far as the expensive tourist destination parks with immersive theming goes, Disney and Universal pretty much have an oligopoly. But Europe has Phantasialand, Europa, Eftling, Tivoli Gardens, Alton Towers...

I agree with you. I'd rather people just be honest and I don't want them to fake that their happy just because their struggles and dissatisfaction offends people. If this board was run by the company or received kickbacks from them, I could see motivation to clean the discussion up some, but I...

I wouldn't worry about the negativity too much. The way I see it, if you're happy and satisfied, you generally have no reason to go on a message board and talk about it. When people are talking on groups like these, its because they're trying to find answers and trying to see if anyone feels the...

Exactly. The posts that people were making where they go through all of the planning that you need for a Disney vacation are highlighting the planning that people choose to do, and the planning that would be unavoidable regardless of what Disney did. I also think that people make the mistake of...

Make no mistake, this is 100% WDW and Chapek's fault. Don't let them try to fool you. Last year, when Cedar Point was facing extreme staffing shortages, they made an unprecedented move to the minimum pay for new and existing staff to $20 an hour to get people in there. Disney has unprecedented...

I think that people are referring to park reservations, dining reservations, stuff like that. This is all motivated by lean management business practices. Disney wants to provide as little staffing and resources as possible in a given day to get through each park day. That requires help from the...

Don't get me wrong, I don't mind planning, and I actually enjoy it a lot. My point is just that most people seem to hate it for some reason. When I engage in discussions and work towards finding the truth and creating solutions, I try to leave personal preferences out of it. The first step to...
