Right they have to respond some way or another but nothing can top a full land announcement.

Disney knows they can’t compete with Epic head on so why bothered teasing something big when it’s not coming anytime soon ??

Even if they had tried to compete with a new land somewhere, they still would be in a bad position announcement wise since Epic is 5 new lands. No one wants a 5th Disney gate, so really bus it is. Even announcing Tiana is bad because they would want their own day to announce that so it doesn't get drowned out or overshadowed.

Question is can they come up with 2 more bus announcements, fun game.

The crazy part is that any announcements with actual substance are usually reserved for the international parks or Disneyland.

So they definitely know that can’t compete with in the Orlando market at least.

Damn we must be getting some sort of Universal news today :lol:

EDIT: We're getting a video about the DreamWorks land in 2 hours. Thats the 3rd-4th time now we've gotten new Disney bus wraps on the same day that USF puts out a reveal of a land or something. Wtf! Lol

I am sorry, I find joy in this, I really do. I would be highly disappointed if they failed to do this for the last land announcement.

We had a great trip to WDW....Two days at MK with a Touring Plans Level One crowd level and one with a Five level...DHS one day with a Three level and one with a Five level. The other 5 days at the various parks weren't bad either. Amazing low crowds for June, perhaps the best ever. Even Sept. usually doesn't get those numbers. Seems like a lot of the fake/fraudulent disability users were purged from the lightening lines (according to insiders they were comprising up to 80% of the lightening lines). Almost all EV's were in the standby lines, instead of the lightening lane. Standby seemed to move much better than last year's vacation. So that might have had a lot to do with the low wait times. I never expected the standby line times we encountered. Slinky Dog (three rides), which the girls loved, was probably the only long lines we experienced. We never used the way too complicated, and not worth it, Genie+ BS.....Tiana looks beautiful, especially in the dark, but it seemed to constantly break down during the media and AP soft opening...We rarely saw anyone in the phone mobile pre order quick service food lines. Seemed everyone was using the regular lines, and they were short. For the second year in a row we had major issues with the hotel and ticket mobile links in MDE. It took the employee at Animation, working with tech, over an hour and a half to fix it. And before I left home I called Disney tech to see if everything on MDE was good and linked with mobile , since last year was a mess too, and they checked and said everything was fine. Another issue was the standby line attraction times on Genie often were far off the standby times listed right in front of the attraction we were going to board. Must be glitching like crazy. Sometimes they'd have almost very attraction on mobile listed at 5 to 10 minutes wait when only a couple were in that vicinity of time. The parks were slow, but not that slow :lmao: . They really need to fix and simplify Genie + and that entire app.
