shoreline99 137 Posted January 20, 2017 Report Share Posted January 20, 2017 Starting a new thread for this. This popped up in my twitter feed last night: Honestly, I think this should be a thing. Everyone should ask cast members what time the night time parade is going to start. Now that MSEP is live in Disneyland, how long before the powers that be notice a huge decline in evening/night time numbers due to a lack of parade? I don't think a projection show or a new fireworks show is going to solve that loss. And, frankly, it shouldn't be Paint the Night, either (although that is an amazing show in and of itself). One would think that Disney has enough resources available to come up with a new 'light' parade instead of rehashing old ones. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Travisma 1,317 Posted January 20, 2017 Report Share Posted January 20, 2017 They are going to put some Dollar Tree blinking lights on the CMs and have them randomly walk around while playing Disney themed music on their iPhones! keith_h 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Guess they want people to keep spending instead of sitting on the curb. Worst part is that's when we did our best riding.....when people were preoccupied! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
shoreline99 137 Posted January 21, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 21, 2017 It wasn't really noticed until after the Christmas parade stopped running. Now it's absence is glaringly obvious. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
shoreline99 137 Posted January 21, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 21, 2017 And, on a related note, the ticketed 'extra magic hours' seem to be a ghost town, according to friends that went (and were given free passes, btw). That's a total money loser for WDW. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
PGHFiend 140 Posted January 21, 2017 Report Share Posted January 21, 2017 I think they are going to see a loss this quarter. They are running ads non stop, I've heard ticket giveaways on Sirius radio, extra month of APs, email offers etc. Something isn't right with their plans to gouge and it's starting to show.

I've noticed what seems to be more ads and discounts lately also. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
