Spash Mountain Refurb...Oh No not again!!

[Magical Dreamer]

Just saw 2015 refurb set for January 4th - 30th.....so sad.

2nd year in a row we're shutout by a refurb.

Sorry for your misfortune, but, Splash Mtn. needs to be shut down yearly to keep it from becoming the mess that it was before the last shutdown. For major attractions it used to always be a yearly event. Cost cutting or whatever, had them going two or more years between shutdowns and cleanup. A decision that turned out to be very costly, in my opinion. January is probably the coldest month of the year in Florida, so a water ride is more likely to be targeted during that time. Timing is everything.

They almost always refurb it in January. That's my favorite time to go, and it's usually closed.

As others said this is a pretty usual thing. Change your dates or your expectations.

Too bad you can't add three days to the beginning of your trip and take them off the end so you could at least ride it one day before it closes.

Don't worry, Disney offers some options that aren't of a Frozen nature.... if they haven't already cut it or closed it to turn it into a Frozen ride.

I wish they'd do 2 shorter refurbs per year. It's dying for it once January rolls around.

Great...we arrive that day. Oh well. Glad we got a couple rides on it this week.

I don't see how people are shocked and upset over ANNUAL events. Just like Food and Wine is in October, Splash and Kali go under refurb in January...

This isn't a hard concept to grasp.

The last time I got to ride splash was the first day it opened after they added the lap bars. We like to go in January, and just know that we won't get to do everything. It's our choice.

I just hope they don't extend it because it looks like i'm riding this year

 

[JohnD]

I have an idea. They can close it in the heat of July during the busy summer season so you can ride in the cold of January (relatively speaking for Central Florida) during the slow winter season.

If this wasn't a yearly thing, then Splash Mountain would not be the most impressive themed-log flume ride in the world!:3
