Rumor Is Indiana Jones Planning an Adventure to Disney's Animal Kingdom?

[pax_65]

The best argument to why Indy fits in AK is that the current Dino-Land is terrible and most of us would celebrate its demise.

That said, Indy doesn't really fit.

Something being poorly executed doesn’t mean anything else fits.

But it is only here on Earth that water and light come together to create life.

We actually don't know that.

We actually don't know that.

Rivers of Light's narrator was very insistent

We should be focusing on more important things like how Pandora has an EXCELLENT quick service location

(and maybe talking more about Indy)

I laugh every time I hear that. I'm like, "umm, hey, Pandora is right over there and they can hear you."

Ha. I haven't seen RoL yet, hence why I didn't get the joke.

Just stopping by the thread to see if anything useful or pertinent had been posted. Nope! See you tomorrow!

Ding, ding, ding! We have a winner.

That would be so awesome.

All four parks needs an awful lot of additions after years of mymagic failing to do what was promised. And doing the bare minimum for a large period of time before that.

MK to increase capacity, the other three to increase appeal.

Suitable additions of course.

Can you remind me what mymagic was supposed to do?

The part I referred to was designed to forcefully distribute park guests to all available attractions, thus spreading out crowds and negating the need for new attractions to be built.

Much like Fastpass was sold as a way to have guests spend less time in queues and more time in stores, MM was meant to have all guests use all available attractions, virtually raising park capacity and thus meaning capacity wouldn’t have to be physically increased.

Looked good on a spreadsheet and a PowerPoint.

@marni1971, Do you think the suits have learned from the mistake- or are they too busy trying to recover the associated expenses?

Or, did it work (to a degree)

Funny how that era is infamous for spreadsheet decisions that ignored Ops and park management feedback. (I’m referring to the managers who are actually there daily.)

Now many of the FP+ decision-makers are gone, and Disney is spending billions more to fix the problems that were ignored a decade ago. Meanwhile, all that tech is going to have to be updated in a few years. The bands did not increase Guest spending as promised, the crowds weren’t readjusted to avoid new investments, and the tech is a bottomless pit.

But if you know how to work the FP+ System, you can come out ahead without needing to spend more time shopping. This is the gift that keeps on giving!

Oh yes, now I remember many of you predicting failure. Thanks.

All I know is Haunted Mansion never really has a line until fastpass showed up

 

[RSoxNo1]

I think Pandora fits because of the theme and because of the look of the land. The location of the land? (Another planet?)That does not fit.

Why doesn't an Alien land fit when the messages of the land make sense with the rest of the park? Made up earth land is ok, but alien land isn't?

Haunted Mansion's line picked up a bit after the major refurbishment fwiw, but Fastpass+ is a much bigger factor.

Please share
I recently stayed on property and the second I was able to book a fastpass, NONE were available for Flight Of Passage.

And if you know how I can get a dining ressie on the fly without committing to eating, for example, Chinese food three months from now on Wednesday, I would like to know.

The aggressive overplanning is sucking the joy out of a "vacation". I am the customer spending money but I have to conform to DISNEY'S rules ?!?!

I agree that this is the case, and mourn the fact of being able to ride it without having to manage it.

But the reason there is a wait, clearly, is that there are more people riding it. Whether it’s simply that MK is more crowded, or whether it is due to FP+ is debatable; but I suspect that the Park is happy for it to be running at capacity.

Now the parks just need more capacity.
