I believe when the green light is given...or should I say the "green paper" is given for a project or rehab, it starts immediately because if it doesn't, the money might get "lost in the shuffle" and thrown back into the pot. Not positive though.
And another reason...TO BE FAIR!
Granted, the people that go to WDW pay more to STAY inside WDW during peak times than people who go at average times or times when there is low attendance, but...the THEME PARK PRICES still remain the same. Now, if I were to go in October and everything that needed to be rehabbed was being rehabbed, then I would seriously be disappointed because I would feel like I pay the SAME amount of money as people that enter the parks at peak season but I'm getting LESS for my money. I believe that Disney is pretty "with it" when it comes to knowing when to shut things down for refurbishment.

Dork. Sorry I just couldn't resist. :lol:
It is a great attraction. If they could only get that standing polar bear to look a little more realistic.

You're right about that polar bear. It's the phoniest-looking animal in WDW!:lol:

I thought I was the only one who thought it was really phony too!! My goodness, it doesn't even look semi-real... lol
But anyway... all in all I have to say I do enjoy the Maelstrom.

I thought I was the only freak who keeps repeating "YOU are not ze fyerst to pass dis VAAAYY..nyor shall you be ze last..."! CLASSIC ride...I'll be sad to miss it in August. In all fairness, it costs more to get a room in February, when we went, than it does now...and rides were closed for rehab then...hell...Blizzard Beach was closed then...so the summer crowds should have to suffer too! Disney is going to install those safety gates on every ride before they are done...I can see it now...safety gates next to every seat on the busses that open as soon as the aisle is clear.

When was the last time you were at Epcot???
You haven't been on Test Track???
or are you saying that TT (being the most technologically advanced ride in the world)(although it's downtime proves that it's not the BEST technology out there) isn't thrilling?

NO PROB
I actually thought you were saying it as a joke...saying that Test Track wasn't thrilling...(to tell you the truth...it's NOT ALL THAT thrilling...but it does go fast)
