If you had them in other less popular rides in line waiting, maybe it would help ease the FP situation... just a thought...

    Excuse me but I mentioned that very same suggestion on a similar topic I started about FP at the time Universal dropped their free service and many here jumped on my throat about it!! Now ssWEDway says..."that may work"!!

    Well NO S****!!!! That was my point. How come it took another poster to get that opinion across!?!?!? I get no respect around here. NONE!

    Mr. X, in regards to TDR, YES.. you nailed that one. And for anyone who saw my most recent pictures of FP lines at Hunny Hunt and Astroblasters... TDL can be the most improved park if FP were up for sale. It did wonders for Universal Japan, where there is no more running to get Express passes.. just running to get in the line to ride, the way it should be.

    All three of your statements are suppositions. Disney on the other hand, has the data. If FP wasn't increasing guest satisfaction for the majority, and wasn't helping to drive sales as well, you can bet they would abandon the system. Instead, we see new rides like Expedition Everest being built with FP in mind.

    As much as some hate FP, they will just have to "suffer" its consequences. It's here to stay.

    Lighten up. Please don't feel compelled to pick an argument with people you have never met, and don't know.

    It's impossible to "know" someone by just reading text messages.

    Life is short.
