USA Disney Park 2024 Projects Thread

They're already reducing park hours this month (and will be a trend for the year)... what is left?

Reduced showtimes? Closing rides earlier in the day? Going to be a fun year

The forecasts are unbelievably bad…they’re running out of options before they get down to seriously cutting prices and begging the old guard to come more

Not sure what you are referring to?

You are lucky then

Cutting could be operating AK only a few days per week "for animal health and well-being"

They're not at that level yet, far from it. I'd have to imagine they are considering a new food event for DAK during the "off season" between Epcot's festivals.

Epcot doesn't necessarily need food festivals, DAK needs it soon.

How do you know that the new discounts aren't working? Or is this before the discounts?

Discounts address the fringes. Most people plan Disney Trips further out

They'll definitely be cutting at DAK by making the animals work concessions.

 

[Smiley/OCD]

Well yeah that too - but that includes building "more" parks so that people stay at their resorts (generating more revenue through hotel stays and capturing every single meal)

If you’ve ever driven from the north down Rt. 95 to Disney, there’s a VERY tacky tourist trap in South Carolina called South of the Border…they have billboards 100 miles in each direction advertising it…

The monkeys will manage to get $15 out of every pretzel sale. I think we know who will be getting the Employee of the Month pin!

I actually think it would be pretty cool to have an animatronic “serve” guests. Kind of like a better version of the Gringotts Money Exchange.

As long as it’s not “Flash”.

That actually sounds hilarious!

Universal almost put one of these in but the throughput wouldn't cut it.

I think that was part of the original plans for Great Gonzo’s Pizza Pandemonium Parlor, a canceled Hollywood Studios project. It was going to have animatronic rats on a track system over you, but the articles I'm finding go back and forth on whether they were just set dressing or were meant to actually be involved in delivery in any way.

The RCCL ones are so boring…it moves like a highway paving project…people think it’s gonna be like Cocktail.

DHS also has the expansion to Woody's and that Coke kiosk across from Baseline

They’ve only been working on this expansion for going on 2+ years

That kinda “can do” ethic is what has 3 hour standbys at Peter Pan so “in demand”

Just think Uni will have built an entire theme park in the time it takes Disney to expand Woody’s freakin lunchbox
