re: 300 Minute Wait Time for Frozen Ride at WDW

I've been going to WDW for almost 40 years. They were experts at the business of managing people. Everything was engineered with the lessons they learned with Disneyland. However, it has become increasingly obvious they still have a 20th Century mindset (however much they've embraced technology for support purposes) to managing attractions and keeping people moving around the park.
The number of folks coming to the area - just for their parks and Universal, has increased about 10 fold in 45 years. And something has to give. The new attractions are a microcosm of the problem. This is what, a 5 minute experience? 5 hours of waiting for 5 minutes - and you've paid $50 to $100 per person for park entry that day?
Epcot pulls about 30k people a day. They can get 1000 per hour through Frozen. Math, bitches.

The first time I saw that giant arse rig was awesome at the end of Maelstrom, only rivaled by the time I went went out to Green Canyon and saw the real thing years later

quote:more than 10 fold. Magic kingdom sees 20mill per year. The others are around 11 mill. About. 20% increase in just 10 years. But there hasn't been a new park since 1998. The parks can't handle the increase without largely affecting lines. There is no offseason anymore. Adding rides doesn't solve the problem.
