Say it isn't so!!! :(

[tommygirl79]

I know that it makes the most sense to do the refubs during the off season but doing Test Track and Buzz at the same time is just EVIL!

I know we'll still have a blast but Buzz is always a favorite and we were hoping for 4 almost 5 yr old DD to make it on Test Track this year. Oh well...

I'll tell you one thing is for sure now...Tomorrowland won't take long for us now...COP (if THAT'S even open and I will start crying right in front of the building if it's not) and a baby swap through Space Mountain and we'll be moving on to Fantasyland. We didn't like Stitch the first time through (ok, actually I vowed that I would NEVER step foot in that building as it is again - I was sick for an hour after the last time with that dang Chili smell in my stomach). Oh well...I'm sure we'll still have a great vacation but it's still a disapointment. At least we get to do the new and improved IASW. It was closed last year when we went.

With Buzz closed, that would just be wrong to close CoP as well. Might as well just keep one car running on Space Mountain during Christmas.

They need to open Timekeeper during that time. It would only be right.

 

[shellface]

isn't there a buzz ride at Disney quest as well? maybe you could ride that one instead?

 

[msuspartan]

My DH will be soooo disappointed! This is his absolute favorite ride. Oh well, we rode in October and it's definitely in need of some rehab. Just gives us something to look forward to next time!

When was the last time this was open?

 

[PaulaSue]

No way, not fair!!!! This and test track, it is our first trip in years and first for the girls.

 

[oogieboogie]

When was the last time this was open?

not sure. they keep listing it as seasonal. The last time we saw it was NYE 04.

I saw this last night too and was so bummed. I am a ride wussy and TT is one of the rides I can handle! Buzz is always so fun for DH and I to "compete" at (although he always wins!). We already have plane tix, otherwise I may have postpone til mid-Feb. Oh well...it is still WDW!!!

This ride is in need of a freshening up though. Guns don't work consistently, the lime green paint on the cars is chipped, worn and dirty.

This is our favorite ride also but the slowest time of the year is the best to get this ride back up to par.

Sorry for those of you visiting during that time frame.

Gotta agree with you kydisneyfans, Buzz is definitely in need of some sprucing up. Sorry to those of you who will miss it. DD won't get to ride for her bday trip, but think of how nice it will (hopefully) after the rehab. Seeing the new IASW really made Buzz, Peter Pan and Splash look shabby in my eyes.

I'm going 1/21-1/28...Buzz, Test Track and Splash Mtn are closed :-(

so bummed

 

[Ziva]

Sorry Buzz is going to be closed when your there. But I do have to agree with the others that it's in dire need of a rehab, it was looking pretty rough last weekend.

What????

What days is Splash closed? I've heard nothing on that yet.

 

[2poohbears]

NONONONONONONONONONO!

I was so looking forward to the boys' reaction to Buzz' ride! Tell me it ain't so!

 

[riu girl]

What????

I am also wondering what dates Splash Mountain will be closed??
Thank you

I am so sorry. If these were our dates, my family would be in tears

 

[heimlichfan]

I was SO sad to read about Buzz -

Any info (or hope) about rehabs being completed early?
I've never been at WDW close to the end of a rehab (we will be there through Februrary 5th) and was hoping, hoping, hoping, hoping, hoping......

Where did you read about Splash MOuntain Rehab ?

In WDW Official Site, there's nothing about Splash Mountain, nor Test Track.
