More guests thanks to FP Plus???

[Lynn57]

Below is an article I just read regarding FastPass +. I am most curious about this line, "The technology allowed Disney to accommodate 3,000 additional daily guests at its Magic Kingdom park over Christmas."

I've read articles on a bunch of blogs about how magic bands have increased wait times by slowing down the standby line. While that might be true, it also seems that more guests are now being allowed in the parks because of FP+. Maybe I'm just behind with my news, but this is the first time I knew that more guests were allowed to enter...

I thought more guests were allowed into MK due to greater capacity since the expansion of NFL. Not sure how FP+ allows more to be accommodated other than letting guests ride less and push them out of the parks once they've done their three.

That statement can be interpreted many ways because of the bizarre way it is worded. Was is 3,000 people per day? Was is 3,000 people over the entire Christmas period. Were they just able to accommodate or did they actually accommodate? Hard to tell.

They don't say guests daily but instead say daily guests. They don't say that they accommodated but that the technology allowed them to accommodate.

I like how they try to sell cramming more guests in as an enhancement to the guest experience! Disney magic!
