So Disney can build an infinity bridge connecting the cruise ship dock to Eleuthra’s Lighthouse Point, BUT Disney cannot build a pedestrian bridge spanning the short distance over the road separating the Polynesian Resort and the Shades of Green Resort [the Disney resort used by veterans and military retirees and their families].
Are we complaining about a service Disney doesn't even have to offer at all? They give great rates and half off tickets to military and their families already. It's not even a good comparison.
@@mattdaaamonObviously *you* aren’t. As a shareholder, I AM complaining. A company which won’t invest its profits into better serving its customers deserves neither.
The problem with adding shade to the pier is that it would have to tolerate strong winds occasionally blowing across it. They can't have stuff blowing into the ocean.
Eleuthera has lots of reefs - they probably should have done tendering, but then that leads to poor guest experience if bad weather prevents tenders from operating. The pier is the least bad solution.
Nice to see they put new seats in Carousel of Progress. It always smelled really musty,feet,& fart smells in there hopefully this improves the smell. Now we just need the whole show completely updated.
Halloween starts on August 23 this year. It doesn't surprise me at all that they would pull Magic Happens resources to put them towards the Halloween parade. There are only so many parade performers to go around.
I did the single rider line on resistance and it seemed really clunky/not worth it. The standby line was 45min and I waited 35-40 min on single rider (would have preferred to see the whole thing at that point).
Every time I’ve been there and tried to ride Rise it has broken down multiple times. I wasted hours and hours of my valuable time to only ride it once. I’d say I’m done with it. I’m not stressing myself out anymore over it.
I like the idea of single rider lines as I have difficulty standing in long lines due to my feet. Wondering what 's going to be left of Disneyland entertainment after all these cuts. 😞
I heard that the reason for the long pier is to not destroy the kelp and coral ber just off shore. Yes, i agree a transport or a shade systrm is a must addition. Maybe place information along the way explaining what is under your feet and the bock is the way ot is.
Rise Of The Resistance having a signal rider line sounds really all even though you are missing half the story if they don't keep it it should be a Virtual Queue line but no matter what I would be fine with Virtual Queue, fast pass, and Singal Line
I'm glad they have a single rider line now, but the lack of care about the story bothers me. There have been multiple times that I've taken people to the parks for their first ever visit, and they don't do the preshow at all! My friends just miss an entire part of the attraction
When watching the segment about the Canada Pavilion, EPCOT, IMO, needs its own in-Park Hotel, similar to Anaheim, Paris & Tokyo. Thoughts? Would be so cool! Have to re-look at the map, to see where possible. Imagine if they finally added Mt. Fuji or Matterhorn with an integrated Japanese or German inspired Hotel? BTW: Chapek Pier is funny, but Guests tend to forget that things like this were likely green-lit, long before his short term as CEO. Those making-fun of Chapek’s cost cutting forget that two of Disney’s ships only happened, because he bought them from another operator at an unheard of rock bottom, bargain price. Disney would not have been able to afford, adding these two new ships and so quickly (as they were already built), were it not, for this smart decision. Not defending Chapek… just wish my shares were worth $212 under his tenure and not $96, as they are, today!
I wonder how Single Rider will affect standby, if memory serves those vehicles are 4x2 seating, and since most groups are even numbers those vehicles should be filled up on a very regular basis. The problem is CMs may allow single riders through to "fill up" a vehicle that can be filled up by a 2 guest group in standby, which would unduly affect the standby line.
The way the RotR single rider line seems to work is that they pick from the main line first and then pick single rider if there's a space for an odd numbered group.
Bastille Day is always the best day at Disneyland Paris with the best drone fireworks show on Guinness World Record. Keep up the good work Disneyland Paris.
The new fairies scene was incredibly well done, with them each firing their wands at the castle turning it pink/blue/green! Pity it's just a one-off, but I think this is about 5 times the usual number of drones for the nightly Electrical Sky Parade, so I imagine trying to get those all charged, and laid out, and planning/programming the flight paths etc is a huge amount of work. Let alone all those extra fireworks...
I’m happy Carousel of Progress is getting love with the better chairs, themed as well. Seriously? They want disabled guests to go in the single rider line. Is that how I’m supposed to rejoin my group, by going in a separate line all by myself? I mean it’s better than nothing, but seriously just let people with physical disabilities have Das again. Do what Universal does and let me show you my doctor’s note. Then you’ll have way less liars/cheaters and much more happier guests which you’re clearly in desperate need of. People might say the low attendance lately is because of the heat and the economy and I wouldn’t doubt that’s part of it. However I think a lot of customers, especially physically disabled ones are simply taking their business elsewhere. Going to Disney wasn’t ever that big a strain on my family’s wallet and we could still go now, but we refuse. Why should we financially support a company that clearly disrespects the needs of physically disabled guests just to squeeze more money out of them. Like legit they are shaking cancer patients down for more money. That is how low they have sunken. Seriously they couldn’t be bothered to add SOME shading or seating?! Even a normal person could get heat stroke and pass out.
It did make me chuckle 🤭 with the "Bob Chapek Pier" naming. Hilarious 😂.
I also love the level of detail they went to reporting it hahaha
Hey the new carousel of progress seats looks like 1964-73 kaleidoscope curtains that was in the introduction section

This! 💜
Facts. Who needs it more than vets?

You’ve confused the word can’t with the word won’t.

I was so impressed with Eric's fluency in French Canadian linguistics!
Hope the new seats help the old smell.
Disneyland definitely had more single rider when I was there, so I'm hoping WDW gets some good ones.
We Really Need More Single Rider Queues at the Disney Parks. Universal has Dozens of Them in almost Every Ride They have
The suits decided single rider would lead to a few dollars less revenue so we could have that
All we need is single rider on guardians of the galaxy mission breakout
I like the option of having the single rider line, I wish every ride had one!

Disneyland entertainment is just in shambles
Eleuthera has lots of reefs - they probably should have done tendering, but then that leads to poor guest experience if bad weather prevents tenders from operating. The pier is the least bad solution.

Lighthouse Point doesn't have restaurants it has concession stands, and a canopy to sit under.
Wouldn't it be cool if they opened an actual hotel in Canada section.
For the French holiday of Bastille Day, since its French its pronounced "bas · tiy" ... not ... "ba ·steel"
Does this mean that people with disabilities won't Get to see the pre-show?
Halloween starts on August 23 this year. It doesn't surprise me at all that they would pull Magic Happens resources to put them towards the Halloween parade. There are only so many parade performers to go around.
Eric was smiling! This might have been the best show.

I'm always curious to know what's in all the space of those big buildings, like the Canada building.
Love that name Chapek pier! 😂😂
Every time I’ve been there and tried to ride Rise it has broken down multiple times. I wasted hours and hours of my valuable time to only ride it once. I’d say I’m done with it. I’m not stressing myself out anymore over it.
It doesn't even run fully anymore as the gun turrets no longer move.

It was. It cheap to install. It’s def to keep the ship further away. A shade system would cost a fortune and get destroyed anytime there is a storm
Perhaps Disney should consider a shade system such as what Royal Caribbean uses on the pier at their "Perfect Day at CoCo Cay".

its a sacrifice im willing to make.
1.1TB of data is basically nothing for a company like Disney.
And what that got was pretty mundane, as far as information.

I thought Josh Gadd was George Santos.
First 🎉 love all you guys do on this vlog
I love Star Wars but rise of the resistance is cheesy. I much prefer smugglers run, I just wish smugglers run would add new missions.
Seems like after being cages on a floating vessel people would welcome the opportunity to stretch their legs a bit!
Eric Morton! 🙌
Cannot believe magic happens is leaving. WTF.
I’m happy Carousel of Progress is getting love with the better chairs, themed as well.

My guess is that the entire party would be able to join the disabled guest in the single rider line.
i wish there was an option on every ride to skip the pre show lol
Hey, dont wantto walk 1/2 mile. Don't leave the ship.
Ever since Disney ruined Star Wars and came up with this junk with the new characters I avoid Disney like the plague.
