Sounds like Soarin will be down to one theater from now until October even after the short refurb next week.
I'm just glad it's not down completely!Sounds like Soarin will be down to one theater from now until October even after the short refurb next week.

Yep, wait times are ridiculous. If you look at the main DLR thread page, there is a thread about it. I thought both screens would be up after the short refurb on Sept 5 and 6, but nope. Looks like it will be longer.Wait...what? Seriously?
I think it's great haha! From now on, whenever someone complains about how bad their week is going to be, we can always refer them back to this thread and tell them "it could be worse...."I started this thread (unintentionally), and I'm thinking I should just stop following it. LOL. At this point maybe I want to be oblivious...
Sweet! How is DCA?Well it's 11:15 right now on a Monday when there are still places in the country where schools are still out, and space mountain and haunted mansion are down for refurbs, but wait times listed in Disneyland are all between 5-15 mins, with the majority being 5 mins. I can only hope that's what we're in for as well!
Thought I'd share my email/letter to Disney about our upcoming trip. I think it sums up everything that's going on (or not going on) at Disneyland next month
At the time they seemed more typical. Long waits for GoG, RSR, TSM, and Soarin with short lines for everything else. But Disneylands were just unusually short, if the app was somewhat accurate. Now everything at Disneyland shows the 10-25 min range but nothing crazy.Sweet! How is DCA?
We had originally planned to go during Black Hole Week but I booked a hotel for the week before so that we could switch if we wanted. I am now considering skipping September all together. We can really go anytime and I picked September because it used to be a slow time. With all the closures the first two weeks in September I am thinking about going the first week of December. I have already purchased our tickets so they do have to be used this year. Does anyone know historically how late they are open that week? 8:00 seems awfully early. I wonder if there will be less closures. I really do like the Christmas decorations and SM and HM are two of my favorites. I also wish that DL would announce schedules and closures sooner. You really have to book fairly far in advance to get good hotel prices these days!
We used to always go in December than started going in September. There is something so magical about those decorations, and I love the snow after the fireworks. Or I could go next week! It's hard to wait, but I don't go as often as I used to so I want to make the most out of our visit!
I have totally come to accept the way things are but I find it crazy that 2.5 weeks out, the schedule continues to change. i have all our plans typed up and I continuously have to change them and reprint. On Sept 15 there were supposed to be 2 Soundsational Parades- one at 4:45 and one at 6:45 according to the website... but now there's only one at 3:30. I just feel like these schedules for things like that should be SET by now!
Yeah, I'm starting to feel a bit better. The only time I am really worried about now is Thursday evening (14th). Since they close DCA down at 5, everyone will go over to DL that wants to stay in the parks in addition to that being the time that locals will hit the park. Must plan accordingly....another day of stalking the app with similar ride closures as mid-sept, and similar cut hours, and wait times are again low today on the app. Soarin is 45 mins right now at 2:30pm, lots of 5 min waits at MK for popular rides, with only Indy and Splash Mountain having longer waits (30-50 mins) but I am just hoping this is similar to our time there!
