The Magic Kingdom had to shut off admissions again today because they were at capacity. The same thing happened on Christmas. I went to Disney World this summer, and while I obviously don't know how close to capacity we we're, our day at the Magic Kingdom was abysmal. We couldn't go on anything. Even It's A Small World had a 2 hour wait. Walking anywhere was a nightmare, just bumping into people because it was so fucking crowded. This seems more and more like an ongoing problem, not just bad days. The thought of being there when it's at capacity is disturbing. Now in comparison when I went there 3 years ago ON THE 4TH OF JULY it was crowded obviously, but we could get on rides. It's A Small World was a direct walk-on, no line at all. Something has changed. Maybe it's because Hollywood Studios is so empty right now? Still, you'd think most of the crowds would be in Animal Kingdom this year for Pandora, but that's not what's happening. --- Just your bad luck... to run into me. <cite>KazumaKiryu posted [p:893189443] in Walt Disne...

TommyG663513 12/31/17 4:31:00 PM #10:	KazumaKiryu posted... YookaLaylee posted... I've never heard anyone call it Walt Disney World before Oh well that's what it's named, so The park you are referring to is called the Magic Kingdom. Walt Disney World refers to the entirety of that property which includes the four theme parks, two water parks, and a bunch of resorts, golf courses, Disney Springs, etc. Or people just leave out the Walt and just say Disney World. Also, don't go during the busy times of the year. I've always gone in early December or late January/early February. Lines and crowds are very manageable that time of year, but weekends are always busy. I'm sure it'll help a bit once all of the construction at Hollywood Studios is done and they rename that park. It should all be done around mid-late 2019. That'll be when the new Star Wars Land opens. Toy Story Land opens up there around upcoming May/June. Tourism in general in that entire Orlando/Central Florida area has been growing a lot. Universal has been pouring money into their parks and stolen a good chunk of the market share from Disney. Disney's profits have still been growing though as the market has just grown that much. They are attempting to grow further by taking back their previous portion of the market share from Universal. So yeah expect for everything down there to continue to grow. It doesn't look like there are any signs of it slowing down. --- just tell them all your base doesn't belong to us because we were getting stoned...they'll understand-Ken156 <cite>TommyG663513 posted [p:893190592] in Walt Disne...
