I really don't understand why TTA has to be closed unless they are going to be doing some crane work in the building.< I lived thru no Potc one trip --no HM another trip-- but TTA - now that's gonna leave a mark. On the hard ticket days ( like Pirate & PrincessParties ) while the fam makes it's 7th ride thru Buzz Lightyear - I am relaxing above on TTA - listeningcasually to the spiel and kicked back soaking in the changing colors on Cindy's Castle etc... I ride around it numerous times ....it is one of my fondest memories each trip... sooooo sad

Some of the tunnels need some TLC and a little bit more to look at along the way. Perhaps they could do something nicer with the Progress City/EPCOT model along the route. Perhaps some concept artwork of what EPCOT was to originally be when Walt first announced it!

Nobody seems to know what the extent of this refurb is going to be like. I love relaxing on TTA. I also make multiple trips on it. From what I understand it will not get that much of a refurb as the bulk of the money will be spent on SM.
