I went. I tried. I conquered. The system was completely down. It was chaos. (All the parks, just FYI)
Looks like that billon dollar+ project was totally worth it, You know i was eating at AoA the other weekend and i noticed there were disposable rfid chips on the bottom of the disposable cups. Great use of money instead of a new attraction I dont get it, the soda syrup and supplies they get from coke has to be near pennies on the dollar does a extra soda or 2 in a disposable cup really make that much of a difference to the bottom line?
It is when your a penny pincher! But honestly the price that everywhere charges for soda, not just Disney is quite rediculous compared to what the actual cost really is.Looks like that billon dollar+ project was totally worth it, You know i was eating at AoA the other weekend and i noticed there were disposable rfid chips on the bottom of the disposable cups.

The prices aren't unreasonable when compared to other similar situations but the rfid integration was just terrible. they would never make up the money Invested in these dispensers.It is when your a penny pincher!

In their eyes, they have, thanks to the misguided way Disney does accounting.The prices aren't unreasonable when compared to other similar situations but the rfid integration was just terrible. they would never make up the money Invested in these dispensers.
Can I book my chaos six months in advance?
agreed the cup rfid thing is one of the dumbest things they've spent money on
its a pure CASH GRAB!!
I know this is sarcasm, but it really is laughable. It was in testing phase to all guests for 4+ months (January-May of last year). I know beyond a shadow of a doubt that I could have made better decisions on how to spend that $2 billion dollars. I know I could have helped design an enhancement to Fastpass that would have benefited the guests. And I'm willing to bet my changes would have resulted in greater theme park growth than what resulted in Tom Staggs' promotion to COO of one of the largest entertainment companies in the world.You guys! It's still in testing phase!! Is that still an excuse that is being used?
What a huge failure. Anyone downplaying this clearly has no idea how bad they screwed up.
Same was happening yesterday at DAK. Safe to say it's happening at every park. The protocol for cast members is to ask for a screenshot or proof of your reserved fast passes. So be prepared to be stopped by some who are trying to follow the rules.
Weird thing is, some of the rides did work correctly (Buzz, T-Cups and Small World). The rest were wide open in the fast pass line, including 7 Dwarf and Thunder Mountain.Proof? That is absurd. The whole point of FP+ and the Bands is to make things easier, not harder.
My favorite movie.Nuke it from orbit. It's the only way to be sure.
