Reopening date?
No one knows. That is just the current release date of Indy 5.
“Sorry, folks, we’d love to fix these things, but we just caaaaan’t. It’s too haaaarrrrd. We don’t have the paaaarrrrts. Hey, Universal, stop building and fixing things, you’re making us look bad!”
When it comes down to it, with people paying as much money as they are to visit the parks, there is no excuse to not have everything in perfect shape.
Right. Except, from Disney's perspective, the show can look like cr@p and guests will still pay top dollar to visit the parks. They have no incentive to spend the money to fix things. Apparently, guests don't care that everything is broken. At least, they don't care enough to complain and stop going.
Reminds me of the "rats chewed tram wires" excuse people said. Like repairing wires would take more than a few hours work.
Is Universal not having supply chain and staffing issues? I really haven't been paying attention, but they'd be one of a rare few if they're not.“Sorry, folks, we’d love to fix these things, but we just caaaaan’t. It’s too haaaarrrrd. We don’t have the paaaarrrrts. Hey, Universal, stop building and fixing things, you’re making us look bad!”
I think the issue is that the effects have to work every 30 seconds for 16 hours a day. The more impressive and robust their effects get, the more maintenance issues they will have just due to the weight and strain those large effects wrestle with every minute of every day.
Right now, stuck in Florida, I can only compare WDW and UOR. Having visited both many times recently, all I can say as an observer is Universal’s doing a fantastic job of keeping their parks and attractions in great shape and WDW keeps disappointing me in that department. The CMs at both, however, have been awesome.
