increasingly convinced that we're overthinking this and they'll just switch where "dole whip" is on the maps/menus and that's all they'll need to do.
Why would they get rid of the OB sign and figure? They have merch out on him. Aloha Isle, too.

I'm not buying the Citrus Swirl removal rumor. Considering how popular an iconic it is, not to mention the outcry when they changed the formula, it would be an odd move to nix it from the park. I mean, I doubt it is that expensive to make and I'm sure it makes up for it.
On my last trip, the Citrus Swirl machine was broken and, based on the response, almost every customer in the three lines that were waiting was looking for that one item alone.
My guess is that the move is based on theming and crowd control.

It seems it would be easy to offer both options in the renovated restaurant as well. Perhaps it would offer food choices that hint at Florida agriculture to include seafood, beef, and citrus as an homage to the Orange Bird.
I bet they use Aloha Isle for the restaurant renovation for extra seating.

I'm wondering the same thing. Isn't all that stuff just flavored soft serve?

Photo update as of Friday, Mar 6. In case there are no recent photos, the construction scrims on the building near Aloha Isle have been removed. Fresh paint.

This is good news to have it by the theatre. Hopefully the lines are easier to manage rather than where they are now...

Since the demand is that high do you think WDW would open ANOTHER location so guests can be served more quickly, No they would rather save a few pennies and make guests wait and ultimately walk away
Just another example of stooping for pennies while dollars fly overhead.

Think for yourselfer
Aren't they closing Aloha Isle as part of the upcoming AdventureLand Veranda makeover?

There was a rumor, but I haven't seen anything that would lend credence to that.

Glad you said it. Hate standing in the cloud while waiting to order. And I grew up in a smoker's house.

Excellent point - at least DoleWhips
can now be enjoyed away from users of portable air pollution.

The swirl, while not as good as a whip, has to remain.

hi
Look at your park maps. There is no longer a smoking area next to Aloha Isle.

Yep. And Arabia right next to that.
