The show was never meant to be viewed from the Asia side. Originally that entire side was meant to be closed-off. But DAK execs wanted it open for whatever reason. If you’re coming in to fully see KiteTails, you should be sitting on the Dinoland side.
That makes sense. I watched solo in Jan from dino and loved it. April sat with family on Asia side and it was ok. At the point of those turns you don't see the kites that well
One of the main reasons is they didn’t want guests sitting in an uncovered amphitheater during the hot as you know what summer afternoons
Never seemed to keep them from caring about guests standing/sitting on the surface of the sun in the hub watching castle shows and parades in the summer afternoons...
I never thought of that. But maybe because it was literally 34 degrees the day I was in AK
Liar! It is never that cold in the land of palm trees and iguanas - Carl Fischer...I never thought of that. But maybe because it was literally 34 degrees the day I was in AK

In addition to this the flotillas now happen in rapid fire succession, about three in a row pass through the amphitheater, Kitetails happens while they go through the rest of the park, and then the three flotillas return.New version of Disney KiteTails takes flight at Disney's Animal Kingdom

Disney KiteTails is now much shorter and takes place multiple times per day.
Well maybe Feld can but Ringling is long gone.What a waste of space. A shame to have spent so much effort building a beautiful amphitheater for a place holder kite show. I'll bet Field and Ringling can cone up with a more entertaining concept for this space.

The new show's goal, Feld said, is to "celebrate amazing talent from around the world, displaying incredible feats that push the limits of human potential and create jaw-dropping moments."

Feld presided over the death of the American circus and like Bell and Howell the name may be there but it's not the same company rather a brand being trotted out to make a buck unless you consider Disney on ice to be a first class production.Au Contrair: "Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey is reviving its circus, unveiling a plan to bring back a modernized "Greatest Show on Earth" — one without its iconic elephants and other animals.
