Tiki Room Refurbishment

As of last night, Enchanted Tales was not available for a full 60 days out from today on....and then I was able to actually go ahead and look past that through all of October and it was not available for FP+ through then either. Upon looking again this morning, now it IS available for FP+ reservations and I only see a few random dates in Sept. and Oct. not available. Me thinks it's a glitch.

But also, yeah...Tiki will be down.

One of the drummers were missing last week and some of the tiki's had lazy eyes... most likely from little kids reaching up and prodding at them.

I was there just a month later than you and saw it about 5 times that visit, my GF and I love the show; anyway, yes, one thing broken one day, fixed the next, but something else broken. To me, though others will disagree and claim everything would be fixed 3rd shift and not allowed to run broken. But that's not entirely true, if something broke during the day and would require 3rd shift to fix, the show would go on for that day, but it would be fixed that night. That appears to be what I experienced in December. However, there was one drumming tiki above a window with its left arm missing the entire visit.
Easy now, it might have been a birth defect. How will you feel then?;)

That's no excuse for non functioning AA's. Plus it is somewhat new since the fire.
I'm not sure I understand that statement. Part one... what you're saying is either mechanical things just should not break down or it should all be shut down because an eye, limb, earlobe, you name it isn't functioning on 1 out of hundreds of AA's? That without that one AA functioning properly, we should all miss out on seeing the show? All because of a wild thought that it's a bad show?

Part two... You don't think that all the AA's were replaced because there was a fire up in the ceiling do you? The Tiki room has been working almost constantly since the grand opening in 1971. That makes a lot of that original stuff almost 43 years old. It's damn amazing that any of it is still functioning.

Is the current Tiki Room refurb still scheduled to end on Saturday? I'll be down in WDW this weekend and I would love getting to catch a classic attraction on Sunday.

thanks!

they should make it into a restaurant
Appologies in advance in case I missed your "ironic font"... The original idea for the Tiki Room in DL was, in fact, to have it as a restaurant where the birds would periodically come to life and put on a show. Not sure what the reason was for turning it into a "show" instead (perhaps to allow more people to see it?). It would be interesting to convert it into a TS (MK could certainly use another one) - but I'm not sure how they could incorporate a kitchen to serve it, and it would be pretty low capacity given it's size. Downside is that the Tiki Room is one of my favorites, and I would hate to have to make an ADR for a no doubtedly expensive meal 180 days in advance in order to see it...

They're putting in a Dole Whip counter, like DL. Right?

Nah, TDO is busily working on adding FP+ to snack items. Be sure to get online first thing 60 days out to reserve your Dole Whip.

To be honest, if you were looking at a FP+ kiosk screen and had the choice of Stitch or a Dole Whip return time... you know which would be the offer you couldn't refuse.
