Those aren't the capacities for those parks. Those are rumors that have spread for a long time.I don't understand how MK is the "smallest" park when its capacity is 100,000 and Epcot's is 82,000.

I live in Savannah and public schools are on spring break this week. Colleges like GSU are as well.Really were not on vacation in georgia.
Gate admission isn't what parks rely on for their income. In-park spending is a huge percentage of their income. With all the promotions Disney has it isn't surprising that the parks are crowded. However, that doesn't mean much financially. I've attended many a Broadway show where there wasn't an empty seat, yet the show lost money...because the seats were comped. While Disney doesn't comp admission to anywhere near that level of capacity, gate admission isn't as big a source of income as you'd like to believe...particularly with the birthday promotion they have going on.
Check your numbers again...your quite off..
Yikes. I really hope things slow down for the weekend of the 27th.
The Magic Kingdom staff was expecting an average attendance day in the 35K-38K range, but were caught off guard by attendance in the 52K-55K range. We were there today, and the place was packed. 90 minute waits for Thunder, 70 minute waits for Splash, 100 minute waits for Space Mountain at 6:40 PM!
My understanding is that the Southeast is on school vacation this week, and my guess is that a lot of these trips were planned last minute, as placed like Alabama, Mississippi, etc are within driving distance to make a last minute trip a bit more feasible.
Can anyone recall the last time they haven't had a D/E-ticket attraction under construction?
I want to see new attractions as much as the next guy (actually probably more) but I can't blame Disney for keeping spending under control in this economy.
Who would have thought last December that they would be adding hours and parades in March?
Any doom and gloomers care to explain your dire predictions of massive layoffs and park closures? :shrug:
Orlando Slant-and-all ?
