I’m wondering too if the 30% increase in security might have something to do with the gondolas coming on line next year. Even if security doesn’t move back to the resorts I imagine with unprecedented access to the Boardwalk area (simply hop on the gondola at AOA, Pop, or Caribbean Beach/Riviera) they will need to increase security presence there. So much for the low crowds and enjoyable atmosphere we’ve grown accustomed to....I suspect that will be long gone by this time next year
It something that took a little while to get through my head, because we head to the boardwalk almost every trip (for Jellyrolls) regardless of where we stay, but I do agree that there will be a uptick in the "traffic" at the Boardwalk. I don't think it will be quite as big as some think, depending on what Disney does with marketing it. They've never really tried to "push" people to Boardwalk the way they do Disney Springs. I think the majority of people at CBR/AOA/Pop won't even think too much about it unless Disney starts to advertise. Riviera maybe a little more so since DVC people tend to have a better perception of what's available on property. Just overall I think we could see boost there by maybe 40-50%, and that really would be only in the evenings.
