RailRider Posted April 20, 2016 Share Posted April 20, 2016 Here is the Rivers of Light Press Preview from last night. 2 observations: The show is going to be visually stunning and the lotus floats aren't moving. I think these lends credence to continued struggles with precision movement of the floats. The New Jungle Book Show is happening starting Memorial Day weekend with all of the new nighttime offerings at Animal Kingdom. Also there are some great sneak peaks of the new Frozen area in EPCOT, Soarin over the World, 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gabe Posted May 4, 2016 Author Share Posted May 4, 2016 For those wishing to have a magical wedding featuring an up-close view of Cinderella Castle (from the East hub gardens), does Disney have a deal for you!: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/you-can-now-marry-right-in-front-of-cinderella-castle-at-disney-world_us_57278ffde4b0f309baf172cb Previously, the closest one could get was either the wedding pav. at the GF or on the train station platform inside the MK on MSUSA. For the price, they ought to throw in a night or 2 inside the Castle suite! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gabe Posted November 21, 2016 Author Share Posted November 21, 2016 Just in time for the holiday season, Disney will begin offering (as of Sun) daily cabana rental in the MK. There look to be about a dozen or so placed between the Tomorrowland arcade and Space. Each cabana accommodates 8, and daily rental is $649. For your money, you get the following: 1. Shaded area 2. Fruit basket 3. Hand sanitizer 4. Mini fridge/freezer 5. Personalized Mickey ears 6. Charging station 7. Sunscreen 8. Coca-Cola products 9. "exclusive" viewing area for parades and fireworks 10. One time delivery of up to 8 ice cream treats 11. Other light appetizers/snacks. The cabanas look like the white hospitality tents found on golf courses. Anyone interested can call Disney or reserve through any Disney hotel concierge. The MK is crowded enough during the holidays, so I can't imagine what this will do to pedestrian traffic.

shark6495 Posted November 26, 2016 Share Posted November 26, 2016 That's not terrible... $82 a person for a group of 8. Ears are $25? Ice cream 5? Depending on the food and snacks let's say $10. So that's about $40 per person for the viewing area, a nice looking tent with furniture, and a rest spot. Maybe not great if you go by your self and family but if you go with 3 other couples, or two families of four....

Gabe Posted November 29, 2016 Author Share Posted November 29, 2016 I agree if broken down, the cost isn't all that bad, but the average parkgoer may see this as another cash grab to separate the haves v have nots. I'm sure they'll be booked solid throughout december and early jan, given their relative scarcity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gabe Posted November 30, 2016 Author Share Posted November 30, 2016 Not necessarily. Some families who wouldn't be considered wealthy save for quite a while to afford a trip down there. Disney's own website has a tool whereby people can deposit money into a savings account per se that's linked to their trip. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

malem Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 WDW has implemented their annual ticket price increase. It's worth noting that all tickets now have expiration dates, so purchasing far in advance (to hedge against future price increases) no longer works. http://www.orlandosentinel.com/travel/attractions/the-daily-disney/os-bz-disney-world-ticket-prices-increase-20170210-story.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VekomaRulz Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 I don't like that water parks and fun option was also removed as an add on by itself. Now you have to buy a park hopper and add water parks and fun as the park hopper plus for an extra $90. Even a 5 day base ticket without any add ons is almost $75 a day. I know it's not a fair comparison with how different the park are but it makes me appreciate how much of a value Cedar Fair and Six Flags season passes are.

CoastersRZ Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 I remember one of my first visits to Disney World, and the park hopper option was included with our multi-day tickets. Long gone is that option. Keep in mind that Disney parks are premiere parks. They are priced accordingly. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HTCO Posted February 14, 2017 Share Posted February 14, 2017 I still think its a bit ridiculous they are charging full price for a half completed Hollywood Studios. These ticket prices are not much of an increase, but I'm still in shock they haven't changed HS (and probably won't) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastersRZ Posted February 14, 2017 Share Posted February 14, 2017 Have they stated when the new Toy Story attractions will open at Hollywood Studios? It would not surprise me if the name of that park changes between now and the time that Star Wars opens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rivertown Rider Posted February 14, 2017 Share Posted February 14, 2017 The last I heard on Toy Story was 2018. Supposedly Disney wants Star Wars done in 2019 so we'll see. I think either way a name change will happen at the park. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gabe Posted February 14, 2017 Author Share Posted February 14, 2017 No date has been announced as of yet. Judging from the construction photos I've seen online, I'd speculate a summer 2018 open. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
purdude86 Posted February 14, 2017 Share Posted February 14, 2017 I would anticipate a spring/summer 2018 opening as well just to better stagger their openings for new attractions. They have confirmed Avatar for the start of this summer and Star Wars for 2019, so this would give them something for next year in between these two. If it opened the end of this year or early 2019 that would mean no major new additions for 2018. And given teh work completed so far and the theming for it I don't see them needing to extended to 2019 for opening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoastersRZ Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 The areas for both look quite large. These will make this park wonderful to visit, but until they come online, there is not much to do in this park. Although it does have Tower of Terror and Rock N Roller Coaster.

RailRider Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 I was of the same belief that there was not enough to do at DHS during our past trip that we didn't plan on visiting this past October. But as our trip was coming to an end we decided to go to DHS instead of a 2nd day at Animal Kingdom. We were quite surprised at how much fun we had with all of the new Star Wars shows and New Character Interactions. Ended up being one of our favorite days at Disney. Disney has done a good job at adding these new experiences while the rest of the park is under construction, DHS never had that many attractions to begin with. Honestly it was half a park when it opened. Very Exciting years ahead for Disney 2017 - AK - Pandora - which looks amazing 2018 - Toy Story Land 2019 - Star Wars Land Also during this time is the Refurb of Caribbean Beach with addition of Vacation Club Rumored Aerial Transport between EPCOT, Caribbean Beach, Pop Century, Art of Animation and the Studios 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gabe Posted February 15, 2017 Author Share Posted February 15, 2017 Well, the latest now seemingly-annual price increases (this most recent one began Sunday) should cover a portion of the gondola network they're apparently thinking about! Note that all tickets now sold must have their first day used by 12/31/18. Any tickets not used by then will retain their original purchase price value towards the purchase of new tickets. This is a change from previous policy where tickets bought never had a use-by date until one first enters a park. Some 3rd-party authorized resellers still have 2016 inventory left, in case anyone is interested in "banking" their tickets for future use, no matter how far out.

TTD-120-420 Posted April 30, 2017 Share Posted April 30, 2017 Pandora had a media day today. While the land is obviously stunning and an engineering marvel, the river ride looks meh. http://attractionsmagazine.com/tour-the-rides-restaurants-and-shops-of-pandora-the-world-of-avatar-at-disneys-animal-kingdom/ 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
