Why is Pixie Hollow opening one year after the rest of the expansions to Fantasyland?
Because construction on it will not begin until later.
But why? I don't get it. It can't be to keep MTTF open longer because the Dumbo area sits on half of MTTF...

The area of land pixie hallow will most likely occupy is right now home to the tents where the princess, fairies as well as the judges tent home to mickey mouse. While the Fab 5 could be moved easily the princesses have to wait for their new areas to be built or else they will be displaced and out in the open, where there is less control over the queue than where they currently are. once phase 1 is finished, pixie hollow can be constructed over the remaining area if they wish to do it.

I have a feeling it is. Look how long Tink has stood the test of time! It's nuts.
Call me crazy.... but if it somehow doesn't succeed couldn't the area easily evolve into an Alice mini land. Giant flowers, larger than life objects... :shrug:

I completely agree.
Having an entire mini-land dedicated to a direct to DVD series is ridiculous as is. If they wanted to make a mini-land that involved Tink, it should have been Neverland.

Disney sees it more than a DVD series. They also look at Tinkerbells kid fan base, merchandising, and it's online world.
I feel it might be popular now, but may not be so popular come three years. Who knows though, it could go the other way.

Tinkerbell's series will be going for 5 more years. If it maintains its popularity, then this land will no doubt be coming as promised.
As unkadug pointed out it is all logistics. Construction will start on currently unoccupied sections of FL, namely the old 20k plot. Once that is done they will have the additional capacity to be able to shut town Toontown and complete the expansion with minimal guest displeasure. To do it the other way around would be insane. FL is already bursting at the seams as it is. If they were to shut down Toontown with FL as is FL would look like it does on the 4th of July every day of the year.

I think it's opening later beacause they are still in the planning phase of this area.
I am personally hoping that some of this land goes to Alice or they make the Speedway two stories and give some of that land to Alice. In the end, I just want Alice to get at least her own themed area.

Well the other reasons make sense as well, but the imagineers stated that they were very early in the planning stage.
