So another poster created a thread regarding Spaceship Earth FP availability at 30day window.

I checked TP FP availability tool and from 6/13-6/30 it reflect Distribution Done. Is there a refurb going on?

Interesting. Not sure about SSE and I’m certain @rteetz will know, but FP has been super wonky lately, like glitchier than the norm. Entire days in July for all 4 parks had a “distribution done” notification on mde AND touring plans for a short period of time.

Yeah I did wonder about the glitch. But it was strange because all other rides showed availability or what would be normal Distribution Done for the day (like FEA). It was just Spaceship Earth from 6/13-6/30 that showed Distribution Done. You could get it before and after those dates.

IDK Disney tech is fun ain't it lol

I saw that too when I logged in. Maybe it will be a quick refurb. But I never trust Disney tech anymore. I swear it's maintained by villains.

Thanks for responding! Here's hoping it's just a glitch for the other poster

I was hoping this would last most of the summer. I really wanted to see Hyperspace Mountain

PHOTOS: Artwork for Canceled K-2SO Disney Infinity Figure Surfaces

This makes me sad
We love Infinity in my house, and it's still a sore point that Disney cancelled it.

I am glad they are trying to improve that restaurant as it is in such a prime location

Was just watching a video of Tony Baxter giving a tour of Disneyland Paris and there they have Walt's - which is arguably their nicest restaurant, right on Main St and made me wish we had something like that instead of Tony's

I though this was a decent article about the VR experience at DS. I was under the impression it was temporary but in all honesty I havent really kept up with it. Still, a nice account of first hand experience.

It’s not temporary. It’s a permanent space as is the one in downtown Disney and the one that will be in las Vegas. The only temporary locations are the UK ones and there was one at the Glendale galleria in LA recently.
