Attendance way above projections

[WDWPassHolder]

On this poz note i can say I sent en email to SEVERAL disney emails including, IGER, meg crofton, GR at wdw & DLR, along with several others. I did get a very rare call from WDW GR regarding my email. it is a copy of a quote i put in several threads here. Anyway, since it landed on meg & bob's desk they called me. It was a very long chat with her, nice lady named april. WE had about a 45 min chat, about the many negative things posted here on the boards, many of which are true & hurt disney fans that knew Disney b4 it became the greedy $$ grubbin company that it is today. When they WOULD spend $$ on broken things, keep things clean & taken care of before they fell apart. :fork:

tl;dr

Good to see this. Does it have to do with all the deals?

this is just my observation and I have no data to back it up, but from what I saw yesterday while working, the resort boats and even monorail didn't seem to be that busy and I heard that the MK resort attendance is down. On the flip side, there were 3 ferry boats running from 10pm till close and each was taking very full loads for quite a while. To me that says that people are coming to the park, but many staying off property. Just a thought....

And regarding the call from GR, that's good. maybe they are starting to FINALLY see that we're the ones that should b catered to! Because if you cater to your harshest critics who remember the past, then the present and future guests will come back too!

Agreed. Busier than yesterday after the rain scared many away, but still much slower than previous holiday periods. Reasonable wait times across the Magic Kingdom.
