My understanding is that it often seems to be related to staffing efficiency, which to some effect, we’re seeing at all major companies unfortunately.Yes, there will always be cuts, additions, and changes occurring broadly simultaneously. This is almost always true of theme parks - it was even true of the distinguished competition during its darkest period. It’s a balancing act we all weigh differently, not “different realities.” I feel, for instance, that recent additions like Minion Blast have been blatantly cost-cut disappointments.
People who seem to know in this and other threads seem to be indicating that costs are being cut at the resort as part of an “efficiency” push. Is this untrue?
I think it’s also true that there can be additional “benefits” to the company making a certain cut. IE “addressing 3D feedback,” the cost of the glasses, plus staffing.
To me, its both cheap and potentially a means to address whatever they are attempting to do with staffing EU. Both things can be true. But, I also don’t know these things for a fact.
Generally, that absence of info allows for all of us to speculate, then assign Universal’s intent in these decisions. Some of us go with a more optimistic spin (which can feel like “shilling”) and others go a little more pessimistic (“cutting to the bone”). But at the end of the day, we’re all just making up intentions and reasons.
