I truly wonder if anyone who even considered that no-ac cabins could be possible is Florida-based. From the comfort of a climate controlled cubicle in Glendale, it might seem feasible, but for anyone who knows anything about central Florida weather, it seems crazy.
I'm sure adding some form of climate control is both costly and adds significant weight to the cabins, but it is a necessity.
Only an idiotic bean counter would make such a stupid decision.
You mean like the Strategic Planning Board that has nixed some awesome attractions in years past?Good thing Disney doesn't have any of those.

I still think it would be somewhat reasonable if there was a large fan on top that sucked air out of the cabin continuously.
Pretty much the AC without the compressor/condenser and exchange. Perhaps a much stronger fan to make it always feel breezy inside (although admittedly warm on hot days)

I have to admit that since you won't be riding in one of these for very long - say under 10 minutes, as long as there is good air flow, it really wouldn't be that different from walking from EPCOT to the Swan or Dolphin.
ETA: But boy will people complain in July if it stops for 1/2 hour or more for some reason while they are on it. Yeeech!!

It would be even cooler than the walk since the roof essentially provides shade, and you're sitting instead of moving. As long as the windows are HEAVILY tinted.

I mean they even call the boardwalk location a "turn" station. You have hit it right on the head!
Those descriptions are mine, they are NOT from the permit. Only the addresses are for the permit.

I just highly doubt they will have a cutting edge new transport system that is not air conditioned. Sure they may have priced different options because the board would expect that but that does not mean it was seriously considered. Plus consider who stirred this most recent pot of controversy. He has a bad habit of that. Just saying.
Time will tell on the AC vs no AC. I know what I believe.
Thanks, I just wasn't clear on which point of discussion you were referring to.

I will never understand why so many here consider it okay to denigrate Disney cast members doing there jobs. Would you like someone coming on an internet board trashing how you do your job? This is far the first time it's happened and I just do not understand why some consider it appropriate.

doing "their" jobs... and don't be so sensitive snowflake.
Because only someone who is pinching pennies, despite the resort making Billions in profit every year, would even consider not making their guests more comfortable in the Florida heat with A/C that would only cost them in the tens of thousands of dollars. If I did my job this way, I would absolutely expect to get trashed on an internet forum.
