This makes no sense
What they had worked just fine.
They are improving something that doesn't need improving (IMO).
They think with this billions of dollars "improvement" they can get people to spend/"enjoy" more time in the disney bubble so they get more $ because they will be SO HAPPY to be able to "lock in" 3 FPs.
(what most people don't know is that with a little bit of research and work they could've locked in 6+ fps...
)
I assume this works for the newbies in general but totally NOT the vets who knows how to work the current system to the best way possible for their families.
FP+ = Ride rationing to me
I know all FP+ supporters don't agree with this but I totally do.
If our family can get 6+ FPs before and minimal wait on other rides but now we can only get 3 and long wait on etix rerides how is that not ride rationing?
The previous system benefits people who do their homework and wants to do the hardwork.
The current system "tries" to make it fair (= more $$$$$ for Disney) for everyone regardless on whether you want to do the research and work or not.
All the people that says "more room for us", that's not going to be true I don't think.
In the end the Disney will "train" all the guests minds that 3 FP+ is the awesomest thing in the world and people will still come.
So I doubt there will be a huge drop in guest visits.
But us people who are not happy will still get to vote with our $ and say "see you in a couple years or so!" instead of our normal "See you in 4-6months!". And also voice our displeasure with the new system.
They might/might not care, but we can still voice them...
