I’m going to go out on a limb and guess that Foxtrot went down for refurb for Christmas so it’s done by this happening.

 

[GhostHost1000]

Well that’ll make Genie+ easier to use at HS during that timeframe. Especially once other attractions go down that day

Slightly disappointed by this, but that's life.

Still wish Electric Mayhem took over this ride..

 

[CastAStone]

That’s a long refurb for no changes. I assume major behind the scenes changes?

I know they’ve been having a lot of stacking issues lately wonder if it’s getting a brain transplant like Mummy got.

 

[DisneyDreamer08]

We’ll be there in March. This has me really concerned only because wait times will be higher on other rides and now Genie+ will be even harder to use Worst possible park for a big attraction to go down for that long.

What are stacking issues?

While this ride is super short it's definitely something valid and fun to do and Genie+-worthy. I wonder how bad this will hurt an already-abysmal selection within that offering.

 

[EagleScout610]

In accordance with Disney's new ride name scheme it'll reopen as "Aerosmith's Music Adventure"

 

[SaucyBoy]

Disney needs to add a "buyer beware" warning for any tickets purchased to this lame park while one of it's marquee attractions is down.

Having trains stay on the brake run or in the pre launch position for longer then expected because the train in front of them has not moved up a block.

Thank you. This ride in particular seems like they have only one track for loading and launch so maybe that's a logistical/operations issue when something goes awry? Haven't been on it since 2018 so maybe not.

It’s been much worse recently.

Hopefully Tower will be at 100% capacity at this time. Cannot even imagine spring break crowds at this park with RnRC and Tower combined at 33% open!

 

[Tomi-Rocket]

Wondering how long it will take for someone to ask if the music will change, lol.

 

[seabreezept813]

This ride was in ROUGH shape when we went in August. Closed twice, and then when we finally rode I asked someone to check my harness lock, they told me they would at the next check and never did. Music played only in some spots, lots of lights out, it was bizarre.

Half day park experience

Olivia Rodrigo perhaps ?

Maybe by that time they'll add Fantasmic to the LL lineup, only thing I can think of that might help.
