You actually agreed with me (and a lot of others around here for years)All this does is replace booking rides during the day starting at 7am one at a time every 2 hours with pre-booking 3 rides 7 days in advance and then booking more as you use them. It doesn’t solve any capacity problem. It does allow an old man to sleep in an extra hour while on vacation.
The real math is how many more genie+ units are sold a day because pre-booking is popular. If the number sold is dramatically larger then you start to run into the capacity problem. As @flynnibus said, it’s unlikely Disney puts in a system where they make less money so there is very likely going to be an increase in sales which could (should) impact standby waits. I have no idea how effective changes to the disability system will be in preventing abuse so maybe that will offset some of the increase in useage in the lightning lanes. Hard to say what the final impact will be.
This doesn’t solve their numbers problem at all.
It’s why it’s getting ridiculous that they keep trying to put new shades of lipstick on it.
It’s just not enough capacity to Maintain any flexibility. Battle lost years ago.
It’s actually getting embarrassing. Everyone knows what the problem is but they can’t do anything. They are bleeding these parks dry. And you don’t want to do that with the lines share.
It’s Bob. This always goes back to it.
