Miscellaneous Tokyo Thoughts

[BrianLo]

Anyone know if the fantasy springs entry gate policies were changed? I’m seeing google results from the official page that there was a change in place for June 1, 2025. Looking like you can exit as long as you are in Fantasy Springs before 2100 and what looks like general entrance being permitted after 1000… but the link is now dead.

It was supposed to be just for Toy Story Hotel guests starting June 1 I believe, but they really should just open up the exit for everyone else.

Toy Story Hotel Guests to Enjoy Access via Fantasy Springs Entrance

Starting June 1, 2025, guests staying at the Tokyo Disney Resort Toy Story Hotel will have the exclusive opportunity to enter Tokyo DisneySea through the Fantasy Springs Entrance beginning at 10:00…

I was there late June 2025 and tried to exit via Fantasy Springs to get to the Sheraton. Was told no, only Fantasy Springs Hotel guests and Toy Story Hotel guests could enter and exit this way. Ridiculous as it turned a 5 minute walk back to my hotel unto a 45 minute the across the entire park plus monorail loop.

Truly a nonsensical rule. It's not like that gate exits into the hotel itself like the MiraCosta one.

Why would OLC want people to pay substantially less? Really no different than the DCA exclusive entrance.

At Disneyland, they let anyone exit through the exclusive hotel entryways. You don't have to be staying at the Disneyland Hotels to use their services.

They also don't care after a certain point in the day if you enter DCA through the Grand Californian (not sure about the PPH entrance in this regard).

So in California, what that poster described wouldn't be an issue. I see no reason that the Fantasy Springs Hotel should burst into flames if people who aren't staying there are allowed walk through in order to get to their hotels in the most logical way possible from that spot. I imagine literally any other Disney property would allow them to do so.

It's sad how long it's been closed now. If they can't get the show running again, they should consider using the space for something else.

well for what its worth the area is open
for taking a break in the park. Its a cool place during summer and they open the area for guests to take a rest.

They haven't posted auditions for aerial performers in a while. I had saw a former cast member (within the last 2-3ish years?) say the show didn't exist anymore on a post related to Triton's concert. Not sure how much truth is in that, but it seems more probable now.

To add on: The DVDs released for the anniversaries are filled with pro-shots of retired shows. Not sure whenever the 25th's one will release, but that's usually confirmation for a missing show's status.
