Yes true,but imo a good way to add capacity to DHS is to add more attractions both rides and shows and even maybe more meet and greets .
Yup, and remember, Backlot Tour and Motors had a respectable combined capacity, even just the amount utilized.

Also remember that for a long time there was almost nothing else to do there and they still weren't able to attract enough to be saved from being removed.Yup, and remember, Backlot Tour and Motors had a respectable combined capacity, even just the amount utilized.
What’s horrible is that a 2 hour standby wait is considered “good.”I have a hard time believing that MMRR is going to attract nearly the crowds for nearly the length of time ROTR is. When it first opens, sure -- anything new does. But the idea that they would need a VQ for that... ... just seems like a failure either in reliability of the attraction or throughput being too low for some other reason. And I still don't see what is so horrible about how they handled FoP with FP... or Mine Train...

So far it hasn’t been that big surprisingly. More like displaced attendance timings.So you have a huge attendance increase for studios..
Meh. I don’t see it as a problem that a major headliner can have that long a standby wait. Easy to avoid if you plan ahead.What’s horrible is that a 2 hour standby wait is considered “good.”
You’ll find 2 hour waits at most popular parks across the country for the past few decades. Most may not consider that “good” but it’s certainly acceptable to the vast majority.What’s horrible is that a 2 hour standby wait is considered “good.”
So basically the crowds are peaking at opening rather than midday?So far it hasn’t been that big surprisingly. More like displaced attendance timings.
2 hours is reasonable at best. But FoP goes beyond that most days.You’ll find 2 hour waits at most popular parks across the country for the past few decades. Most may not consider that “good” but it’s certainly acceptable to the vast majority.

Because people are willing to wait for it. Unfortunately that’s just what happens when demand exceeds capacity. Flight of Passage has settled right around 2 hours though. Which is far better than some other rides.2 hours is reasonable at best. But FoP goes beyond that most days.

I feel like FoP is due for the Soarin treatment. They need to add a third theater.
To expand on this thought, if a VQ is the greatest operational and guest satisfaction line management tool ever created... then why haven’t we seen it take over the standby duties at least of FoP and 7D? Because it would be a guest services disaster to tell people the line is ‘closed’ and they effectively can’t ride the headliner attraction today.
RotR is a special circumstance. The perfect storm of a one of a kind experience, low capacity operations and huge demand. VQ should not be used in normal circumstances.

They already have 4 theaters. They need at least 2 more.
