I'm going on the 3rd of July for a week. It's our first time bringing my son to Disney (he'll be almost 3)I'm devastated it's not going to be open, he's pirate mad! Not that he knows about the ride,thinks it's more me that's disappointed.im just glad phantom manor isn't closed too (he's spooky mad too)
I'm gutted too as I'm going first week of July although I'm still hopeful. When I was a CM in Orlando they'd operate the ride a few weeks before the official reopening to make sure it operates ok and what not.
I'm hopeful this will be the case in Paris and that it will be operating a few weeks before the official relaunch on the 14th.
This might not help out the early July folks but Pirates of the Caribbean is officially scheduled to open on July 24th. It's nice to finally have a proper date. I hope it holds since we are going in September.
