That and when less visitors come for Disney, less go to Uni because some go to both. For now anyways.

Magic Kingdom Scales Back Patriotic Decor & Park Hours as Fourth of July Crowds Remain Low at Walt Disney World
It's a slow Fourth of July at Walt Disney World for the second year in a row and Disney has scaled back some of the decor and hours

Low crowds = low effort? What’s up with this cheapness? It might be petty but Disney is about the details why scale bunting back?

This is the new Di$ney and what is frustrating me and others. It’s more about $ now than the guest experience. Prices go up, while some offerings and experiences go downMagic Kingdom Scales Back Patriotic Decor & Park Hours as Fourth of July Crowds Remain Low at Walt Disney World

Disney is in that typical circle --crowds are low so they scale back ---because they scale back less people go ----less people go Disney scales back more but at the same time charging more. I wonder if they teach that business model at Harvard
Iger didn’t even get his MBA. After graduating from Ithaca he started in entry level at ABC as an assistant’s assistant ( aka gopher ) earning $150 per week and 50 years later with the company as CEO. In graduate business school they rarely teach you to think out of the box. When Conan O’ Brian who graduated with honors from Harvard was asked what Harvard learnings did he take when he made a career in Hollywood he remarked “ Absolutely Nothing “.

That explains the very poor business decisions
If that’s the case there seems to be no active ouster of him and he continues to have the support of the Board. Disney will be fine.

Who is “they?”
And if that’s true, that’s a lot of money Disney is losing out to its rivals. They’ve been comparatively slow to scale up their cruise line.

This is why so many of us are credulous that we’ll see a substantial portion of that $60bn/$17bn spent at WDW.
I believe DCL has 5 ships soon to have the 6th ship up and sailing. Disney and other cruise lines know how to play the game. Register the ships in the Bahamas as labor laws are not as stringent down there as if ships were to be registered in the USA where labor laws are more stringent.

I thought that too until I read they are replacing a teen pool with a ball pit

Right. But only a portion of those have cruises in/out of Florida. The context was lower attendance in Orlando. If cruising it eating in to WDW revenue, DCL is only benefiting from a fraction of that offset revenue given its much smaller footprint in that industry.

The word on the streets regarding the new island isn’t great either.I thought that too until I read they are replacing a teen pool with a ball pit

The mile long sun filed dock and pier you have to walk to and from isn’t getting a lot of praise
Now that’s bizarre. Is there going to be a bigger first aid station on the ship to address the future ball pit injuries of some of the kids that surely play rowdy?I thought that too until I read they are replacing a teen pool with a ball pit
I had a great time at Castaway going to the adult beach , eating fresh grilled fish sandwiches seeing from distance the trailers that the cast live on the island full time. If only the island can tell stories of the long runaway where it used to be a transport refuel connection hub of items moving from Colombia to South FL back in the 1970/early 80s.

No my neighbors are the ones who told me
Seriously though. People aren’t as up for baking in the sun as they used to be.
Are travel patterns the only thing hurting WDW in summer? No. Is it making things worse? Yes.
