They used to replace them proactively, before they burnt out. But lately it's been much more lax, if at all.
Thank you... aesthetically speaking, I think it makes it look lazy and guest aren't worth it to keep up the place. Anyway again thanks for answering I appreciate it.

Nothing says “flagship” like burnt out popcorn lights.
If this is the flagship, I’d hate to see the dingy.
Sadly this hasn’t been a flagship since 2010
Who has time to look at the rooftop lights? Too many guests that I see in my travels are too busy looking face down staring into their iPhones.
. Some people I know give a scare to other people staring into their iPhones while they are walking nearby by saying " Heads up!!! ". Gets their attention everytime.

Which is probably the same amount of time some of those lights have been out....

I notice lights out everywhere, especially in MK. I really notice if its the same ones trip after trip.
For instance, the 1st time I rode the Little Mermaid ride, I noticed that both eel's had only one glowing eye. I thought to myself that they really should fix that. After seeing them out after multiple more rides, I mentioned to my wife how bad it looked that they haven't fixed those eyes in over a year. She proceeded to tell me that's how they looked in the movie. Oops...

This is so true and I have to be honest I am one of the iPhone starers. I am also a 16 year old teenager who people say we have our phones attached to our hands 24/7.Who has time to look at the rooftop lights?

Eh I keep seeing these lights out everywhere. Tonight I noticed more of the lights out at Yacht club and the boardwalk. Yeah I notice these things so what??? After my initial fury of the lights being out, I calmed myself down by saying "it must be hard and risky to replace these bulbs."

Thats exactly the reason, but its not an excuse. Replacing them in a lot of places requires a ton of safety rigging as well as guests to be out of the area of that safety equipment.

Roof maintenance is something that needs to be done. Attachment points for work harnesses should be available for areas that cannot be reached with a telescoping lift.

I agree that it needs to be done. I even said it was no excuse.
Sorry for the bump, real quick, I complained about the many burned out bulbs a few years ago and two nights ago I noticed the bulbs seemed much more filled out especially on Narcoossee's and the other building across the monorail track(not sure what building that is). Anyway just giving kudos to them
