The walls at AK were a huge disappointment for us in December as well. We were also "full day at AK" people, but this last trip, we didn't spend much time there. It really did feel like being in a maze. I'm generally not a wall Debbie Downer and I wasn't bothered by the walls at MK, but at AK...ugh. I really feel like they should have just closed the park completely for a few months and worked on it 24/7 to get the non-Avatarland stuff done more quickly than being open to guests in the shape it is now. It would be OK if it was just the former Camp Minnie-Mickey area that was closed off, but there are just walls everywhere right now.
