The stanchions have confused me since I saw them pop up. Why have a giant walkway and only use 10% of it for the line. However, I'm not saying "Disney is a bunch of morons". I'm actually saying it's not operational yet and I don't understand it yet. I know they have thought this through more than me playing the role of internet keyboard warrior.

Might be used if/when a stand-by line is operational.

I assume they have to account for both guests exiting the attraction and going to/coming from the restrooms. It does make some amount of sense that they’d keep the queue narrower for the organized, unidirectional traffic they’ll have on the way to the ride.

My brother and his family just booked a trip for April 15-23.............I had him book MK on all his park pass reservations, except for his HS days so he could get a shot at Tron and then hop to the other parks...............

Whats the drawback to this strategy?

He is stuck at MK every morning and can’t hop until 2 pm, leaving his family with very long waits at DAK and Epcot.

So if he buys genie+ and uses it at his park hop park every day that partially solves the problem?

Except that Genie+ doesn’t really let you select return times AFAIK. Never tried booking for another park at 7 am since that seems like wasted money to me. You can keep pushing return times back but that’s not vacation to me.

I get he looked good for his age. But can we get someone not in their 50s for the Tron role please?

Iger is back and really likes Tron, and is Synergy obsessed, so of course this will get expedited. We did not think that the coaster was getting created and cloned for no reason did we?

If I were in charge, TRON would extend throughout Tomorrowland on a PeopleMover-like platform with banked turns.

Maybe then it could be seen from the land it resides in! It would also hide the track to become much more diegetic to the land too.

But it would also quickly become the most expensive theme park attraction Disney has ever produced with no easy ROI.

I know. But Disney "friends" can dream, can't we?
