[OlliePop27]

No changes to the refurbs as of Friday, 8/8 with Fridays being the day DL typically reopens rides from refurbs.

Still down for refurb are Matterhorn, Casey Jr., Storybook Land, Star Tours, Incredicoaster and Redwood Creek.

Yes indeed. Expecting Haunted Mansion to go down for refurb on Sunday 8/10 or Monday 8/11.

Such a let down. Now both parks will be filled to the brim lol I’m assuming it will be insanely busy with all these rides down.

Well, I think people will still be good this week because the lower keys are still blocked. Come 8/11, keys become unblocked and some of the ticket prices begin to drop and HM will go down for refurb. Crowds the week of 8/11 could be heavy.

From what I read incredicoaster might be closing to accommodate the building of the new Coco ride.

Lord help the (already chaotic) Guardians lines if the Incredicoaster and RSR refurbs overlap

Right? It’s going to be insanity. I’ll be there 8/7 & 8/8 so no overlap with Incredicoaster & RSR. But still feeling like I should be worried for my time at DCA with their only coaster down.

Our first trip is August 21st-26th. In your opinion, do I need to reschedule my trip?

Are any of the rides that will be down a non-negotiable for you? One you absolutely cannot miss? For me that's Haunted Mansion. For my kids it's Space Mountain and Big Thunder Mountain. For my wife, it's Small World. If any of those 4 were down, we would reschedule.

I’m local so at DLR it doesn’t matter. But when we got to WDW, I’ve never even thought to check the rehab schedule. When we went to the MK last year, it rained heavily, which meant 1/2 the attractions were shut down. And then indoor attractions like Space Mountain and Tron were down all day. So even if we had looked at the rehab schedule, it wouldn’t have mattered.

Honestly, I don't know enough about all the rides to have a non-negotiable. I just don't want to miss 3 or 4 rides!

If you don't now enough about them, you probably won't miss them.

@3babiesmom without knowing anything about you, your interests, who you are traveling with, etc., no one is going to be tell you whether it would be worth attending. Why don't you start a new thread with a bit about your traveling group (number of people, ages, interests, etc)?

I switched from 8/6-9 to 7/24-27 to get ahead of the Incredicoaster closure last week and I’m so glad I did! Guardians and Big Thunder are also faves of mine that I’d definitely reschedule for. My kiddos would add RSR and Space Mountain to that list.
