Some just want to complain about both sides of every issue.

For many, complaining is their sole occupation. To be even the slightest bit positive is to have huffed several lines of pixie dust.

It’s a weird relationship with Disney. Love it so much but swear it’s in death throes. Are we gonna see $50/day tickets? $80 stock? Look! Why isn’t summer busier? It’s such a great value if you can survive 5+ hours in a park.

I wonder how long this will close. They mentioned Jingle Cruise during Halfway to Holidays so presumably it reopens by Halloween.
You are right, it did not close.

I think what a lot of people may be missing is that with all these rides going down for refurb we're seeing a recommitment to the parks. If they are spending "big" now with loss of capacity etc. then I think we should be excited for the future. It just feels like they are taking the parks more seriously now. It started with them refurbing the seats in Muppet Vision.
It just feels like we've never seen this much refurb in quite some time. I'm just going off vibes though.

I just read that Jungle Cruise has been removed from Mickey's Halloween and Christmas event. So this may be out longer than we thought
Read where?

It was pulled from the attraction listing for each party (I suspect their system is coded to automatically pull such hyperlinked items when a ride is scheduled for refurbishment, so this likely was automatic) but they still state Jingle Cruise will be offered.
Jingle Cruise was never listed under Adventureland when the 2024 Christmas party was announced - the Christmas Party page has stayed the same. It was removed yesterday from the Halloween Party attraction list.

What does this have to do with food?

Nothing, but that is where I read of the removal of JC from those events

I was more saying “I trust them on food and not much else.” Their hot takes on everything else ends up being rather clickbaity. This, for example, when apparently nothing actually changed with respect to MVMCP.
I’m not criticizing you but rather DFB.
I think they'd end using a different Louie these days...
HEY Y'ALL THIS JUNGLE'S JUST LIKE THE BAYOU! HALLELUJAH!
Here's a new statement from Walt Disney World on the Jungle Cruise refurbishment:
Beginning August 26, 2024, Jungle Cruise will temporarily close for refurbishment. The attraction is scheduled to reopen for Guests before the winter holidays begin at Walt Disney World.
