Yes, we really like the MNSSHP, but it used to have lower crowd levels. I guess Disney figured to make more profits by selling more tickets.
Noooo! Disney would never find a way to extort more money from people. That could never happen.
They were pretty good. We went in the evening right before Illuminations started, so we were able to see (and I caught on video) some of illuminations from the air, so that was cool. I can imagine, in the middle of summer, they could be miserable. They don't have AC, but they do have good vents, so last night, with 85 or so degree weather, the movement of the car and the venting were fairly good. Someone mentioned, in the day time, if they stop, they get rather warm. I was happy we were able to ride them the first "day" of operation. After illuminations was done, the line to get on them at EPCOT was crazy. Not sure if it was people just wanting to ride them like us or actually staying at one of the resorts, but we were very glad we went BEFORE illuminations was done.
Unless I'm staying at one of the resorts, I'm not sure if (or how often) I'd use them. One of the couples we were with was wanting to "hop" from EPCOT to HS, but to do so, you have to go to CBR and get off and then get on another one. It's possible this might be faster than a bus option, but I'm fairly certain it's way slower than either walking from EPCOT to HS or taking the boat. If you're at one of the resorts and want to go to either EPCOT or HS, I can see this being significantly faster than a bus.
NORM!
