Travel being heavy in and out of MCO and Disney having low crowds should have red flags everywhere.
Pics of areas that are usually bottlenecks help. One that stands out in memory in EPCOT is the area around the Mexico pavilion. AK doesn't have any that bad, from what I can remember.
I'm sure everyone on here feels like it's such a bargain at today's pricing, G+ costs, and hopes they double in price soon
It’s doing well! Canaveral has half the volume of Miami & Ft Lauderdale
if the parks were managed and ran like the cruise line, we probably wouldn’t be seeing as much of a decrease in attendance
If you know rentals are in high demand, why would you do that?
Care and attention to guest exp, light years ahead of parks and resorts is the DCL cast. If parks and resorts cast can even have 1/2 of the qualities of DCL cast , perhaps more guests would see guest service improving in P&R. .
Hydrate and find shade or AC!. I checked and its 104 degrees heat index currently in Orlando!
You have an extraordinarily entitled attitude. Bring on the (hopefully hidden) car rental cancellation fees!
We were there too—it was better than the week after Christmas but it was still packed. I stopped taking all the “Disney is failing! Nobody ever goes there” comments on this thread seriously after realizing it’s either a lot of people who don’t visit the parks much hoping that if they keep predicting doom for the parks that Disney will try harder to bring back middle class customers and/or people with miscellaneous grievances lying about attendance trends. I have seen credible insiders say that they are not keeping all the value/moderate resorts running at full capacity and others have reported being offered upsell/upgrades to deluxe, so I do think Disney isn’t pulling in on site guests like they used to, but the parks aren’t desolate like many here want you to believe—Disney just isn’t giving customers enough value for staying at the on site motels.
I would love to find it less packed at all hours of the day when we visit next month, but I’m not expecting it to be anything like alarmists describe it here. If Disney keeps admission prices higher, they can afford to provide a more pleasant experience for the people who continue to visit…it’s not as profitable for investors, but it’s not like the parks are in danger of bankruptcy. Still hoping they will roll out a more expensive but more convenient line skip product like Universal has, but it appears they don’t want to do it with current crowds…however, it would be an easy way for Disney to juice revenue quickly if they needed to.
