If only they were. I am a bigger person so could not ride any of the rides at Universal. On a low calorie diet so I will be able to in 2024. I could ride EVERY ride at Disney World. Every Single one including Pandora’s flight of Passage

Even at Animal Kingdom we had to wait 90 minutes for Navi River after the nighttime show.

There was a very large crowd; but it wasn’t shoulder to shoulder as has been in the past. I was able to do everything I wanted to do to celebrate being there the year WDW opened. Visitors were happy and kind to each other and strangers came away with happy memories

Isn’t this proof enough that the old FP+ system worked better?

I found the parks to be more manageable (although we did take advantage of early entry) with the exception of Hollywood Studios which was unbearable. While crows were fine, lines for rides were ridiculous vs. 2017 same time period. G+ exacerbates wait times, making it extremely difficult to get things done. We had no issues in 2017 with FP+

I hate that you don’t have the annual passes! Haven’t been back since those can’t be purchased!

They’re turning away customers ready to spend money on the most profitable product that the company sells, yet the company won’t add capacity because it’s spending capital on other parts of the company that are now losing money, and at best will always be a low margin product.

If Uncle Scrooge were running the company, he would be throwing a Donald Duck fit over this.

We’ve lived here for a year & feel as if there is no true “slow time” like there used to be.

No matter what day and time you go. I literally went in had lunch and left last week because it was at its worst. And the rides ALWAYS break.

The lines & crowds would be crazy if full capacity was allowed again. The same people complaining about capacity would be the same people complaining about how long they had to wait in lines. Can’t make everyone happy! I want to enjoy being in the parks without shoulder-to-shoulder crowds & getting ran over by strollers.
