But that's not what CM's are being told currently... Makes sense they would do this though... But you can bet that when possible they will re-open during the busy times since they really need a people eater like Pirates open then...

The attraction will re-open at Disneyland on June 24 and in Florida's Magic Kingdom on July 7." I seriously hope this isn't true We're going July 1-8 and the 8th is the day we leave so no MK there so I guess we'd have to go on the day it re-opens and the lines will presumably be like nuts. Why can't they reopen it in WDW on June 24th too Oh I know why - The PotC Movie 2 comes out 7/7 of course. ARGGGGGGGGGGGGGG

Originally Posted By MrToadWildRider >>one of my faves but they have to rehab rides sometimes<< But at the same time it'll be down for the July 4th week largely which is a peak time. It's just very odd in one way and I think a bit lame that they want it to coincide with the movie debut. Doesn't that kind of defeat the purpose? You'd want dollars to go to either the parks or the box offices and it's sort of splitting the market when they could just as easily debut the rehab in June like DL and that way get park visitors more excited to go to the theater or something. I don't know. Oh well, maybe we can park hop over there for the day.
