I got an interview.I don't think George would like me dead, no. I do think he'd like me muzzled though. Of course, I can play nice too ...
As to his appearance today, since that was a community event where Disney was giving money to charity it only shows he is alive and in Central Florida. Nothing more. When is he giving his first interview to Sue Vongel... I mean Lou Mongello?
I got an interview.
Jason Garcia has a new article about next-gen and ticket laws...not sure I understand it fully though:

Storybook Circus and Oz...
No connection. Not even a blue sky plan.
Nothing but fanboy armchair imagineering.
I feel like I discovered the Rosetta stone. Everything makes sense now. Everything.

That would be best.OK, I am moving on.
At the time I denied FLE, it was dead. Burbank subsequently gave it CPR.With all due respect, he denied the FLE rumors originally too. Just sayin'.![]()
That would be best.

The finer notes about Disney flipping the disclaimer on multiuse tickets is more academic than customer impacting.
I believe Leonard Kinsey stated in the Dark Side of Disney that some of these scalpers are connected to organized crime.Here's a link to the bill itself: http://www.myfloridahouse.gov/Sections/Bills/billsdetail.aspx?BillId=50731@JasonGarcia kind of glossed over this, but the bill makes a second conviction for ticket scalping a felony. I know the ticket brokers are a thorn in WDW's side (Universal's as well), but treating scalpers the same as violent criminals seems a bit harsh. I could see some backlash on going that far.
I think it's aimed at trying to strike a balance between a WDW AP--which can be used by one person--and a Magic season ticket, which traditionally has been seen as usable by anyone the ticket owner wants."
I am not big on niche marketing in the parks. Certainly there are still high-end products available but best to limit that in the theme parks as it is simply not marketable to the 99% (heh). Or 99% of guests.
And with the dawn of internet shopping, the 1% can find what they want online. (heh heh)
See what I did there?
Now if you will excuse me I am off to Walmart.
Merchandise was only one small example. One I witnessed on a daily basis at a ride I worked was how Maintenance would be denied entry into a ride to address show quality because Operations didn't want to lose ride count for an hour. Or how a dining facility can't sell the food they want because the people running the dining plan says food must remain below a certain expense to justify free dining. Or how Imagineering can't make the changes they want to a certain DHS icon because marketing is afraid of losing a profitable merchandise image. The different departments of WDW do so much catty in-fighting that they don't have a greater vision for what the resort should be doing.
Orlando Magic?? What is a magic season ticket?
I'm not aware of any tickets Disney sells today that are transferable
