Technically possible Thanks for posting the article - its always great to think of what WDW could do to improve the transit on property. The original legislation passed in 60's (post WDW announcement) to create the Reedy Creek Improvement District does allow for an airport on WDW property...

I agree with slappy magoo on all points. WS plays to a much different audience than the rest of WDW - one skewed specifically towards adults looking for "culture" and shopping while on vacation. I really love that part of the park, and wouldn't want to lose that "vibe" with unneeded expansion...

RCID Regulations If anyone is interested in the real nuts and bolts of the RCID, I've published an independent study on the legal/political ramifications associated with Disney's ownership (voting rights, creative accounting, taxation, etc). You can post back here with an email address to send...

Suggestions.. Hi there, Last fall semester, I completed 3 independent studies on Walt and the Disney company at large. To give you an idea on my suggestions, I studied 3 areas: (1)Development of the Florida Project, specifically the Reedy Creek Improvement District; (2) The inital EPCOT...

As a general FYI - The closest bowling alley to Disney Property is off the intersection of I-4 and International Drive (towards going on Sand Lake Blvd). During my College Program, my roommates and I would stop in every once in awhile - however, I would warn you that the cost per game on a...

For the first time, sit on the right in either seat 2 or seat 3...they are usually have the least amount of bumping around and you'll feel less of the drops. Enjoy!

For the first time rider, take the right line Just an FYI to first timers (and to answer your question)...a well-known fact about SM is that the two sides are not completely identical...the Left is called Alpha and the Right, Beta (some call it Omega, but its left nonetheless). Now, just so...

Remember Test Track's problems? Just one idea on the opening for M:Space: I think we all remember the PR nightmare that Test Track's opening was for Disney. Fellow CM's are telling me that while M:S is coming along well, Disney will likely delay soft openings (my humble opinion is late...

Dragon Slain? Only time will tell... I just wanted to point out that many failed concepts that are for one specific park, area, etc. have the ability to pop back up in other areas of Disney. Forbidden Mountain seems to be simply the "mountian outside the Magic Kingdom" design that was...

Just to echo what others have said, though it would probably be in Disney's best interest for competition in Orlando to buy out Universal, its not going to happen, and honestly, it shouldn't happen. Disney: 1) Does not have the resources available to make this kind of a deal right now while...

Some of the most beautiful and magical times I spent as a CM in Florida came staying after hours, I can give you 2 examples: I was a CP in Liberty Square (merchandise host), and one duty that was given to me on a few occasions was staying after hours and helping with collecting strollers for...

Getting DVC was one of the best decisions I've ever made. I've been a member for 4 years now, and not just have we found we've saved money (we go yearly, meaning we should break even soon enough, with A LOT of years ahead of us:)). Also, a big plus is that points cannot swing more than 2+/- from...

Alberrisford- [has anyone else noticed that recent disney parks have been quite small? ie. Ak opened with 1 e-ticket (depending if you count Kilimanjaro Safari ), Disney - MGM studios opened with something like 8 attractions? and the new park in Paris is not much different either. Although...

If "the living skies" works out, it would be an awesome boost to EPCOT. I liked the idea of bringing back the name "if you had wings", but many disneynuts and returning guests (as well as imagineers) wouldn't want to see the name of a former attraction re-done for a new ride in a new park (If...

The imageworks wasn't reopened upstairs due to the fire code violations...and safety concerns that the 2nd floor was weakened over the years. I believe that the top floor is empty now... though I'm not sure.

I've gotten my haircut on Main Street a few times...if you really want to see great cast members in action, stop on in! Most of the patrons are off-duty CM's, who are always happy to talk Disney. More though, the people that work there do a great job, and have all the Disney magic in them. And...

The only problem with the "Air" attraction idea is that it would cost a significant amount of space and time to be blocked off for the construction of the attraction building, pathways to get to it, and a total re-theme of the areas outside both Living Seas and The Land to emcompass the new...

Though I love Space Mountian as it is right now...some new changes in the queue could be cool..and make SM fit in better with the rest of Tomorrowland. But I agree...the music must stay! On what was said about a total re-do of the inside of SM... when I was a CM I heard the same thing, but I...

I'm going to WDW in late may-early june with my girlfriend, and I was looking for any romantic spots ya'll can think of there. Its a great story...we were CP's for Fall 2001 (both working in Magic Kingdom) where we met and fell in love...we've been together for 6 months now and it feels like a...
