In my opinion, this will bring more folks to AK and with the reality there is no actual additional capacity in attractions compared to when Dinoland when it was in full swing, the park will simply be more crowded.

But this is the goal of Disney, get folks to show up at AK.

What folks can do after they tap in is another issue but that's ok for Disney as they have used an entry for the day.

Having another mid afternoon parade and a night show would keep a lot more people in AK

Never heard of a rumor or insider mention a parade for DAK.

I'm sure a night show is constantly on the blue sky white board.

Animal kingdom isn’t designed for an easy parade route but it’s worked before. Why they couldn’t do small parades multiple times as day (similar to MK) with animal floats, characters, and drummers I’m not sure but it’s likely cost and logistics of moving people and floats around.

From a theoretical/numbers perspective, Tropical America won't add any additional capacity to the park. However, more guests will be interested in the attractions. For example, while many here disagree, Energy Adventure was not a very popular attraction with park guests. So while it had great hourly capacity (nearly 2K an hour), probably a quarter of it was used. Same with Figment today, rarely do you see queues for it anymore.

I'm expecting Encanto & Indiana Jones to actually use the majority of the capacity available throughout the day.

Unless they break it (like they did with Tiana) when they reskin dinosaur to Indy, capacity will be the same for that attraction.

The capacity of Encanto is an unknown. We hope it has a higher capacity than Primeval Whirl.

Also, standby may be GONE for both of these.

It will be interesting to see what happens.
