They got the wrong park for this, they should have put it in Animal Kingdom! ducks Now that you've broken your computer, think about it. It's an entire land themed to nature just like Animal Kingdom's lands. There is currently areas around the world and they've just added Central America, but...

I think they updated this post as well: https://disneyparksblog.com/wdw/11-ways-to-celebrate-july-4th-at-walt-disney-world/ "“Disney’s Celebrate America! A Fourth of July Concert in the Sky” will light up the nighttime sky over Magic Kingdom Park with a booming nighttime spectacular. A...

Is this article from Disney today claiming they are back? https://disneyparksblog.com/wdw/fireworks-to-ooh-aah-about-at-walt-disney-world/ "Also, a simultaneous fireworks display at Seven Seas Lagoon will continue to create even more unforgettable experiences this holiday." Sure sounds like...

Don't think of Disney like other lines. They aren't at the corporate stage where they have a massive fleet and new ships every year. Even then ships are sticking around longer. If you look at Royal Caribbean they just revitalized the Voyager Class (first delivered in 1999) because they've...

Cabin installation started in 2019 and they are already furnished when installed. They would have to renovate each room to replace the carpets and change the paint. The public spaces of the ship are done structurally, but likely lacking most furnishings so supplies may have been ordered (I'd...

This is far from an empty box. It was started in 2018 and was to be delivered in 2020 until the pandemic shut things down resulting in the line and ship yard going bankrupt. Most of the work at the end is visual so ships go a long distance to completion in the last weeks, but structurally they...

It was supposed to be a lot of 3rd, 4th, and more in each cabin. That's more common in the asian market than the US where people often book multiple cabins for families (Disney is kind of an exception to that). If you look at the Icon of the Seas it's significantly higher for the maximum...

The concept art is a bit concerning. This ship is so far along that major structural changes to the interior aren't going to be easy or cheap. They can probably convert cabins to a room, but anything beyond a single deck box filled with support beams will likely not be an easy thing to do. The...

France announced today that it is suspending the vaccine passes March 14th. DLP hasn't announced if they are going to follow the new French laws or maintain a higher standard.

That's how we ended up with Captain EO returning. It's what Disney does with it's theater shows sometimes, and in Disneyland with the evening fireworks.

If Disney really wants to hit the right balance of guest satisfaction and revenue they will do like last year was. They need to bring some of the holiday entertainment into the day guest time and leave the premium time focused on a less crowded ride experience with more meet and greets and free...

That's horrible. It would have looked much better if they left the base monorail and put different characters at the beginning and end with the pixie dust trail connecting them. Even just connecting the pixie dust trail and fading the blue in and out would have been better. It's just too bold...

That's just crazy. When you look at what a Tesla is capable of doing it seems crazy that a train on a single lane beam can't stop in a certain spot and react to trains in front of it.

I still think there has to be a way to build hydraulic ramps in the stations to avoid the need to modify the trains to be flush to the platform. The main issue was getting the trains to stop in the right spot each time, but the automation should have taken care of that.

I wonder how long until the energy inefficiency of them can cause enough of a green story that it forces them to be replaced. I can't imagine something made in the 80's is anywhere near as energy efficient as one would be made today.

Reminds me of Bay Lake Tower, they should have just stuck with that design.

I'm surprised they haven't figured out a way to have an onboard battery. You'd think with all the battery technology we now have it would be possible to have enough onboard electric to ensure safe passage to the next station in the event of a loss of power on the line.

Well that didn't last long. Hopefully they release some more in the next 2 weeks before my listed window to order runs out. Seems odd for them to sell out in a day when they know so many are looking for a 50th magic band for their upcoming trip and made it exclusive to that audience.

Crazy how Disneyland's opening was broadcast live, and with all of today's technology and mobile filming and broadcast capabilities Disney isn't able to do live TV specials any more. It's all about controlling the brand, they can't do that with real guests.

Still listed as coming for October 1st, but surprised no times are known considering the rest of the entertainment (except Beacons of Magic) are listed with times.
