None. But if you visit MK on a day where the 7am drop is filled in seconds and you didn't snag a spot but you really wanted to ride, there's always that "Purchase" button in MDE under Lightning Lane... With VQ, that button becomes more appealing (to TDO) than simply having guests be able to wait in a standby queue.
Well, since there is no LLSP for Tiana and if you don't win the Tiana lottery, or your return time is 6 hours away when you "win" the Tiana lottery, folks may consider purchasing LLPP.
You can check the app to see if there is any Lightning Lane availability, which there obviously isn’t on the day of one’s visit. So why would anyone pay for the service when it wouldn’t get them on the ride?
You can always spend the big bucks to purchase LLPP, right?
I very much doubt the inability to join the virtual queue of Tiana’s Bayou Adventure is going to push people to make such an expensive purchase, but then I’m generally not fond of conspiracy theories to begin with.
I cant speak for conspiracy theories, but families spending big bucks for maybe a once every 3 years trip to WDW faced with the possibility of what you showed in your screen shot may say, "what the heck" and go for it as they are there and did want to get on Tiana.
If the attraction is that important to them, they have two shots each day at the virtual queue. According to the data shared in the relevant thread here, the drops have often been lasting many minutes, sometimes well over an hour, so it’s not like these hypothetical families you’re describing have only seconds to secure their place.
Well, there is excitement to see if they win the lottery even if their return time may be 6 hours away and it is exciting to wonder and hope if Tiana is up for their return time.
These things are rarely like the early Rise of the Resistance days anymore. If you want a VQ pass, you will almost certainly get it unless you're there on an especially busy day, the only confounding factor being unexpected closures, which are a risk you take in the standby line as well.
Look on the bright side, if you cant get on the ride you want there is always food and merch.
Wow. I had thought they had worked out the issues. Too bad.
I think it’s the animatronics that are the cause for most of the breakdowns. Everytime I ride TBA there’s always something wrong with at least 1 of the animatronics. If a majority of them aren’t working I can see Disney closing the ride to fix them. Though this is speculation.
We easily grabbed a Tiana’s lightning lane on the day of, after starting our day at Animal Kingdom.
Since it’s always breaking down I don’t see it ever having a 10 minute wait
Interesting! I didn’t think there would be any left on the day.
Makes me question why they don't just have standby.......
I think they are afraid of opening standby because the attraction is simply not reliable enough.
