It is not as if people are taking advantage of Disney. Disney is the one that has offered BOG to be booked at that time. They can choose not to let People on the rides early. I personally think if continue this route many people are going to head over to Universal. There is rumor that Universal bought a tremendous amount of I land to expand. Universal is going to have Disney right where they want them and Disney is going to keep send more people that direction.Eventually people have a limit. Where Disney made their mistake was doing evertthing at once. Raising prices everywhere and giving people less
Correct,
Disney has allowed this by not implementing the promised prix fixe breakfast. It's on them and only they can fix this. Sadly BOG had so much potential for guest enjoyment and Disney's bank account but now a family can get into the park and on rides early for the price of a single cupcake............
No rumor, Universal has bought a huge piece of property, big enough for a full park or two, or park and hotels.... Since it will in no way be connected to their other property it will be interesting how it will be developed. I still think they don't have anywhere near the same theme park product but their hotels are beginning to be a huge plus. I would even consider staying there but driving to Disney parks, it's not that far.
It's crazy in Mousetown - maybe they are hoping if they just make all these changes at once it will blow over instead of dragging out the pain.
I don't even know what to say anymore...the "perks" of staying onsite are being stripped away. You can park for free, however, if you get there early you still don't get a close parking spot unless you pay to "upgrade". You can stay in the park late....but you need to pay to do it...you can watch our wonderful night time shows...but if you don't pay for a premium dining package, you ain't seeing it except from way at the back or side with an obstructed view. You can watch our fireworks...but if you actually want to see them well, you need to pay a premium and eat dessert.....it keeps going and going....
Not really. The closest lot at MK is not preferred, the preferred is actually just behind it. The folks who lost out are those with Handicapped Tags who used to park where it's going and will now have a much longer walk unless they moved them to the closer lot but I don't see that happening with how the road is laid out.
Maybe early hours are going to be able to be booked by offsite guests? Onsite guests will still receive EMH hours. This will help us swallow the $15.00 a night resort fees that are rumored. It will seem like we ARE getting something for the $15.00.
Consider this idea .... the $15 Resort Fee is the LARGE RUMOR based on virtually one twitter post. I have seen no one follow up that they did the same survey. I've done crazy surveys that never came to pass. So the RUMOR of a resort fee is the only thing keeping EMH alive because it claims to be a benefit of paying it. Maybe Disney has surveyed enough to decide NO Resort Fee, instead there will be NO free EMH and all extra hours will be a paid ticket. This thread is about Early Morning Fantasyland Dining ...... still strange. But to be creative and create something that fits maybe it's a deal of eat at BOG (full price for all) and then get an hour EMH with it for select Fantasyland rides. I see it selling.
I am happy they are finally giving the morning hours some love. Never liked that the evening hours always got all the attention. I hope this is a really early morning event like 6am or earlier otherwise I don't see the point. We are a family of
early risers (up at 3am-4am) and have been really disappointed that nothing happens in Disney until 6:30am and that is only breakfast opening up. We don't make it to evening fireworks and love to be able to spend our currently empty 3hrs in the morning with something more constructive in a Disney park. This would also benefit international guests that are on a time difference and get up early cause of their internal clock says it is later then it is. They can get moving and enjoying their vacation too.
You are probably a very very small minority. Disney has to have time to deep clean the parks, do maintenance on every single ride and ride car, do construction (unlike Universal they don't work in view of guest in most cases), change out landscaping, mow grass .... and let their poor CMs sleep. There is no economic reason for them to have
anything open past 2 am on a regular basis. And honestly in most places, nothing good is to come after 2 am. I get the body clock (DH traveled international for work) but we all deal with that when we go somewhere not in our time zone. When DH & DD went to Tokyo and few days at Disney there ... they adjusted their sleep to go open to close. We have to adjust to them to do it all, and if we want to stay on our own time then we miss out on stuff.
