News Tiana's Bayou Adventure Virtual Queue and Lighting Lane status

[IanDLBZF]

Question, if TBA goes down, are the LLs good for just TBA or are they also valid for other attractions?

 

[Vclguy90]

Ride is down again at 3:14pm with BG 32.

Not a good second day..

Weather?

 

[wdwmagic]

Currently closed for weather

It’s still in technical rehearsals

Every ride has growing pains

The old ride system was ancient

Duh - storms!

 

[gorillaball]

Maybe. Months after FoP opened lines still extended far past the themed queue space.

RotR and GotG have at least an hour themed queue space.

Edited to add

Slinky Dog suggests themed queues aren't necessary, Disney's opinion

Can’t really say based on one queue what Disney’s opinion is. Some ride setups lend themselves to a lengthy queue, some don’t.

What’s the point if a virtual queue if there is a hour 1/2 long line once your number is called

What’s the point if a virtual queue if there is a hour 1/2 long line once your number is called

Kindly asking, what is a solution you would prefer?

*Multi hour stand by line? If the ride is dependable (this one isn’t yet) I might prefer that.

*A system with Just in Time boarding where you have a 10 min window once called and if you show up late you are out of luck.

*Idea I haven’t thought of but you have…?

*Impractical pipe dream idea?

It's easy to tell if it's storms or not. If all the other outdoor attractions (including BTMRR right next to it) are closed as well, it's storms. If they're not, it's something else.

As a former BTMRR CM, I can confirm this.

It's a storm. Giant deluge. Lasting more than an hour (so far). Lots of lightning strikes at WDW. Power at Pop went out twice so far (less than a minute). Still thundering...

15 rides at MK are still showing as closed.

Yep. Pretty standard every afternoon from June to September (as I know you know).

Nah, this is a bit worse than the come-and-go ones (like the one from two days ago).

The old joke of "if you don't like the weather, wait an hour" is more like 3 hours for this one.

Groups have resumed being called:

 

[Animaniac93-98]

Regal Carrousel = 400/hour

Am I not mathing the math there?

I thought the Carrousel was more than that. It has 88 horses, plus the carriage and parents can stand next to their kids.

It's only doing 5 cycles an hour? 1 every 12 minutes?

And I thought Small World did way more than 1300 an hour.

I believe they will give you an experience to anything if I'm not mistaken but I could be wrong.

We've counted guests exiting IASW and that seems to be the average. I know it's probably got higher capacity, but I think that's what it's running at.

I'll check on the cycle time for PCRC again. The load/unload time was a lot longer that I thought, last time I checked.

It gets turned to a multi attraction pass - I happened to my wife yesterday as the ride was down due to storms when their LL return time came

It wasn't good for all rides though - didn't include the ILL rides, Space Mountain, and a couple of others.

The wound up using it for Tiana's later in the evening through when it came back up. They managed to get in two rides yesterday and everything was working for them, so definitely considering themselves pretty lucky especially with the performance today

It takes awhile to position the strobe lights

Until the strobe lights become the standard.

Does it still count as an animatronic if it’s broke and no longer moves?

Absolutely, You are the magic. Close your eyes and imagine the doll moves.

Are the aminatronics that much more complicated then Splash?

From what has been said it isn't the animatronics themselves but that they have sensors to start when boats come by rather than just playing on a loop and it is those triggers that are the issue

Which indirectly it's the animatronics that nobody asked for

Playing them on a loop will be the B mode; leaving them as immobile statutes will be the C mode

Problem solved.
