I was there on the 4th and they are still in tact. Unless if you knew what you are looking at you really don't notice them. Would they get rid of them just to make is pure concrete. They would have to close the walkway off and do some major work to get rid of them.

I have heard that LOW will not be back but replaced by something new this year.

We're trying to decide to visit December 2-5 for the WDWCelebrations' event, so I sent a letter to guest relations to see where things stand. After the requisite empathy statements ('we truly regret your disappointment...') and a bland explaination ('we regularly evaluate and adjust our offerings') my question was answered somewhat with 'we hope you will have an opportunity to enjoy the holiday entertainment and decorations currently featured at our other theme parks'. So it appears that all the customer dissatisfaction comments and letters really has had no effect at this point. We're taking a summer vacation to WDW in a few weeks, so I'll ask again in person.

I think that the people in Guest Relations, through no fault of theirs, have no idea what's going on behind the scenes or what's being planned but hasn't been made public yet.
In most companies R&D projects and new developments are known only to those who are directly involved.

I see they have found a solution to their problem of operating obsolete technology.

With all the complaints last year, I am truly hoping that we at least get some nice Holiday decorations for EPCOT this year.
Really do wonder if they are going to ship them out whether to fix them or to send them somewhere else ?
Or protecting them so they can sell them or piece meal sell it off on E-Bay?
From what the insiders know, we will not get them back so probably going elsewhere.

No word of the Lights of Winter yesterday in the Christmas press release...

For those wondering why you'd submit a LoW comment on such a random post, the same was done last year by a flurry of individuals when the announcement was made, and that's where Thomas Smith ended up responding (and I believe indicating that they were "obsolete technology").

They really don't need shipping out anywhere to be restored. There is more than enough talent in Central Shops to get the job. These are the people that unpacked and fixed an entire Main Street Electrical Parade in the space of a few weeks, and also built the Earth Barge for IllumiNations. They just need to get the job done.
Good job.
Unfortunately when you have people like Lou Mongello replying praising the meatballs the point may be missed. Love how in his first reply he forget to spam the post with his website, and then he resubmitted it again with his link on. His replies on the official blog make me wanna :hurl:

I wouldn't choose a Pam Brandon article to attack with LoW comments. She barely knows what restaurants are in what hotels, or how to spell certain foods. I'd choose a Thomas Smith article, but I guess spreading out the comments is good too. Start early and stay strong!

That's a valid point. Thomas Smith just posted a re-cap, and I added a comment there as well. Thanks!

If they were to put the arches out again, does anyone know when they are put up? Is it after F&W festival is over?

They usually start all the Christmas decorating the first week in November. So, in theory, F&W would overlap some.

Thanks. We've never seen Epcot decorated for the holidays and we're looking forward to it.
