Somewhere, actually, yes. I have a really cool heat map from 84.51 (data firm) where they stuck RFID tags on all the shopping carts at a Kroger store and saw where they went. The racetrack was dark red. The freezer section where my products were sold was depressingly light pink.
The research on supermarkets is that the stuff in the aisles gets ignored and forgotten and the stuff on the perimeter gets passed by 95%+ of shoppers and is several times more likely to get purchased.
That’s why companies like the one I used to work for spent literally hundreds of thousands...
The simplest solution - and almost certainly most efficient way to move large quantities of people over that distance - would be to do what Universal did in Orlando and just build a bunch of elevated covered moving walkways.
This I agree with, but that’s a floor, not a ceiling. Realistically I’d be shocked if Disney doesn’t invest 5-8 billion+ into DSRP areas over the next decade including hotels, DVC, infrastructure, dining, retail, and yes, theme park expansion.
Please, step this way, please hand your bag to the woman with powdered baby formula all over her gloves, unzip all the zippers, yes, allllll the zippers, thank you now place it here with your phone and keys, and get in line here, yes behind the screaming children, thank you for your patience...
The only reason not to impose a modest gate tax is continue to lord it over Disney in exchange for concessions.
If I were Anaheim, leveraging it to ensure Disney upholds the spirit of the promises in the plan (massive, many billion dollar investment that leads to huge employment increases) and...
And we can quibble over what is an E-Ticket/C-Ticket; the fact is MMRR, MFSR, ROTR, and Spider-Man taken together dramatically expanded ride capacity vs what was there before (nothing, nothing, petting zoo, Heimlich) and represent significant expansions.
The DisneylandForward vehicular traffic plans don’t make sense for a third gate. There’s no ability for pickup/ drop off west of Disneyland Drive, and it’s spelled out specifically that access from the existing parking structure directly into the new development west of Disneyland Drive will not...
What is this lost revenue you all keep speaking of?
Genie+ has sold out 29 times in the nearly 2 years since they changed it so it could. 5% of days.
In other words, if DAS wasn’t taking up LL space they would sell 0 extra G+’s 95% of the year.
This is clearly about fixing a guest experience...
I don’t think locals or day visitors are the target for DTD. I could be wrong but I think they do a lot of convention center business dinners and a lot of meals for guests of the 3 DL hotels.
That first trip was rough for me too. I didn’t have a CGM or a pump yet. I had a LOT of lows and ate a LOT of candy. Next time I was better prepared.
I do feel like Disney could be better with warning people about potential pitfalls and what to bring if you have XYZ condition. Universal...
I will just add that WDW, with all that walking, does wreak havoc on my blood sugars, but on both occasions at WDW I have mentioned to a cast member that my blood sugar was low and showed them my pump, I had a cold, free Powerade in my hand in less than a minute, without actually asking for...
I prefer pink and yellow but if my blood sugar is low enough I’m eating all of them mixed together, possibly with scraps of the paper still on. I wouldn’t be aware of it.
Severely low blood sugar is something else.
Today I learned that my Type 1 Diabetes would have qualified me for DAS.
I have been to WDW and DL probably a dozen times since my diagnosis and not once did I ever think “hey I need to skip lines for this”.
I have my insulin pump / glucose monitor in one pocket.
I have a pack of Starbursts...
