It's not related to the Coronado Springs expansion is it?

If it's closer, perhaps they're doing work on Kali. It's under refurb right now. Could also be that they're still doing some tree cleanup in backstage areas after Irma (stuff they couldn't easily get to).

Was hoping they just let this guy fly around after Flights of Wonder closed up.

are they adding another 2-3 minutes to the ride? if not then the refurb is a waste of time.

and yes, i know they can't add more river to the ride. so i'm basically saying this ride kinda sux.

Its been a complaint since it opened. You run the risk of getting completely soaked for a very short ride that feels incredibly incomplete. It is a huge bummer that this couldnt be much longer.

No attraction on property needs to be reimagined and probably 're-engineered' more than Kali. A complete replacement of the ride segment should be considered. IMO.

Amazing so many other classic or near-classic attractions are being considered for IP overlay, when this one actually has no discernible plot and could be a great Jungle Book ride.
My son always thought it could be overlayed with an Emperor's New Groove theme. He was bummed when I told him that the movie and Kali took place in two different hemispheres...
