I love how they use the term “protect” like there doing everyone some favor. Some big grand task.

You mean not sell anything of worth for 11 months?

This is crazy. Disneyland looks to be using a dart board to make decisions.
I do not think they would stop selling the Pixie Dust pass at WDW.
That said, I would not be surprised if they did.

The pixie dust pass will always be available as thats when they want the unfavorables to visit. The rest of the passes will be available for a limited time.

Is that the one where you can only visit dak after 3 on even numbered Tuesdays during the slowest 2 months of the year?

They reached the quota they wanted to sell. The demand has been exceptionally high. Someone posted that the wait online to buy the passes was 12 hours.

To carefully control the quota. If they only want to sell a set number, they have to wait for potential buyers to complete or cancel their transactions before offering it to the next buyer.

BINGO! I call it the WDW parking pass.

Disney’s lack of thought, planning, and handling with everything the last few years has been mind boggling.
Then again, not really.

Well if you can’t get your ticket online, just shake it off and tell Disney we are never ever getting back together.

That will be sold out by tomorrow.

Just finished my first couple days at UOR and came back to update… we will NOT be Uni people now, we’ll definitely add a day to future WDW trips but I don’t see us ever giving more than a day to Uni compared to 4-5 at WDW.
The good… Velocicoaster is absolutely incredible, Hagrids is amazing, Hogwarts express was really cool, and the HP lands are stunning… that was it, nothing else compared to WDw in my opinion.
The bad… I was shocked how much was down for most of the last 2 days, we never got on Hulk because it was down, never got on Mummy because it was down, never got on Rip Ride Rocket because it was down, saw about 10 minutes of Bourne before it went down, Kong was down, Fast and Furious was down, got food but never got our drinks at Leakey Cauldron (they said a computer error lost the mobile drink orders
, they refunded us)… maybe we just got unlucky because it was so cold and nothing was working but I’ve never seen so many rides down at one time at any park before. For a first time visitor it made an absolutely horrible first impression. We left the park at 4 because we’d run out of things to do and the things we wanted to repeat had multi hour lines, likely because so few rides were running.
Looks like Disney will continue getting the vast majority of our money and we’ll use our UniAPs as an add on day to Disney trips.

So universal sucks because of maintenance and service issues that are reported almost daily at wdw and the weather sucks (January…take your chances this time of year)Just finished my first couple days at UOR and came back to update… we will NOT be Uni people now, we’ll definitely add a day to future WDW trips but I don’t see us ever giving more than a day to Uni compared to 4-5 at WDW.

I mean…I get it…it sucked. And universal does not have the same feel as wdw. But that has nothing to do with modern management…that’s all the legacy 1971-2000 stuff…
Were you at wdw too? Just curious of the comp this time
