Are there any attractions that are closed b/c of Frances??

[jwann]

We are leaving for WDW tomorrow and I can't find anywhere a list of any attractions (if any) that are closed temporarily because of the recent hurricanes. Has anyone been since Frances hit? Does anyone know a website that might list this info?

I don't think there is a list because the rides didn't suffer any damage.

I did just read that ToT is closed because of damage....

Where did you read this? Do you have a link? TIA!

I don't know AllEarsNet.com's source, but this is what they had to say:

Monday, SEPTEMBER 6 - Walt Disney World Resort safely withstood Hurricane Frances and maintained power throughout the storm. After a visual inspection of the entire property, we discovered only minor roof damage to a single backstage structure and minimal horticultural damage.

That is what Disney is reporting. They aren't reporting any damage to the rides.

I just got back....but ToT was closed on Tuesday and they positioned Kronck and Kuzco next to the entrance and then later ice cream carts, also Fantasmic was cancelled Tues night- not sure if it's showing now that we've left

I saw Jungle Cruise was closed after Charley. I was told that "Juntle Cruise was scheduled for rehab, but plant damage from Charley resulted in advancing the shutdown by a few weeks".

Not sure if it is open now.

Hmmm...will ToT be back up next week???

Jungle Cruise is still closed, but as was stated it was on a scheduled rehab when the Hurricanes came through. Because of work delays (due to weather) it did not open on time. The were to have filled the river (with water) the night before Frances but decided to hold off. Not sure how much longer it will be, but it was still closed today.

Also just found out about TOT. Friends of mine that work there stated there was some damage to the roof (I believe that was what she said) so it is closed, but no word on how long.

Oh man, I'm going to be so bummed if ToT is not back up and running by the time we get there. Its one of my favorites!!!

 

[Tigger&Belle]

I sure hope ToT is running when I'm there! It's my favorite and since I will be there without my 4yo I won't have to convince him to ride again and again with me (he rode 5 times in Feb). Of course convincing my DH to ride could be even more difficult.
