Guardians needs to open before they close anything else in Epcot, imo.
Not sure about that - I think once they open Rat they could close something else there.

Who are you replying to? I can't see who it is for some reason. Must be someone I've ignored.I do this probably more than normal people should. I always get worried people I like on the boards may have me ignored, lol.
I think non-local demand is lower than expected, but local demand is very high-as evidenced by the avail calendar.
Liquid dinner at Banana Cabana it is!Pretty annoying for people staying there ... The parks close early but the TS at your resort is closed so

Well crud. Need to change dinner plans for one night now it seems.

Leaves FW looking even worse if they do that.
Even the AP discounts aren't great discounts. It is just that Disney has trained us to think they are great discounts. In almost all circumstances you would be paying more for the same room this year than you would have last year when you book with the 40% discount. I paid $1515 for my five night stay at Yacht Club last year in August. I booked a discount (I think it was a Sun & Fun) that got me 35% off the room. If the Yacht was open for the same trip this year going by 40% off rack rate that trip would cost me $1656 if I had an AP. That is $151 more than I paid last year. That isn't really a great discount. Plus, I can't even get that discount anywhere because I am not a pass holder.Those discounts are geared towards locals though. If they were worried about the demand country wide then these deals would be for everyone. Just because all 4 parks aren’t hitting capacity doesn’t necessarily mean its a bad thing.
If they wanted to create artificial demand, they’d take away even more from the other 2 buckets at the non DHS parks to make it look like they’re hitting “capacity”.
So that’s what that song is about!....a whole new world..?
I'd have to agree. Carousel might not draw the crowds anymore, and it definitely needs a refurb/update, but I think the fact that it's the only attraction at WDW that Walt himself worked on makes it less likely to be replaced.CoP isnt going to close. They’ll update it. The parks aren’t a museum, but there are certain things with attachments to Walt that you just dont replace.
Figment will also get treatment in the future. Its probably much cheaper to update the ride again than make a whole new attraction like Inside Out
Camaro budget is catching me off guard.
You're far to entertaining to ignore!I tried ignoring, but I also was too curious.
Now I like to try and figure out who's ignoring me.
For whatever reason, disney seems to want to limit the number of APs in the parks - otherwise why bother with the buckets at all? Presumably they've done the numbers and non-resort AP visitors generate the least cash for them???Demand is still demand no matter where it comes from. Just because a good chunk of people in the parks are APs doesn’t mean its an illusion. People are going down on vacation from out of state while Florida is a hotspot, and in the dead heat of the summer. It’s only going to get busier when the cases lower and when we get to the fall when its at least a little “cooler”. July and August has become a “slow” season for Disney over the past few years, add in the factors we’re living through and it makes sense why there is more demand from locals. But that doesn’t mean its going to stay that way

yeah, personally I think COP and the version of the Enchanted Tiki Room that is at Disneyland I think should somehow be protected as historic - and can be refurbed, etc but should "exist" in some form, somewhere forever
I could see them closing COP temprorily or reducing show times if the crowds really aren't there and it is largely being played to empty theaters though
