Has DISNEY confirmed that Flametree will be closed in August???

I know that word is going around the board that Flametree will be closed. I did confirm it on mousesavers, and got an update from Stitchkingdom that basically said it's being reported that Flametree will be closed, but that the closure has not been confirmed by Disney.....so what's the dealio??

Disney wont report flametree as closed anywhere the general public has direct access to it because it's just not important to them. It's on internal calendars and such though, and sometimes those bits make it to travel agent calendars or someone just happens to ask the right CM a question or knows someone.

Long story short, it's going to be closed.

Closed forever or closed for remodel?

Remodel. I forget what exactly but it was not going to be closed too long.

It's a refurbishment, not a permanent closure.

won't that be a problem with free dining? There are so few places to eat at AK so now the lines will be super long!
