Last year it was probably a couple of months before they announced dinosaur and btm I think.

I'm sure it was POTC that was shut when we went in August 2015 so surely they won't refurbish it again so soon? Hope not anyway, I've never been on it!

I think Mission Space will have a refub this year as many things in the queue didn't work and the video on the ride needs updating or Maybe Spaceship Earth as that's not had a major refub in 10 years.
Can see Everest maybe going down after Avitar is fully open.

Doesn't seem too much in August this year

From the 12th August it becomes off peak for Disney so expect closures from this date (like 2015 & 2016)

Makes me feel better about having to go early this year 😊 We leave on the 8th.

Has anyone been able to find anywhere showing the SeaWorld ride refurbs schedule? They don't post them on their website, they aren't on the dibb and SeaWorld ignore all my tweets (probably as they're relentlessly spammed by animal rights activists).

I'm really hoping they do close EE for an extended refurb to finally fix the Yeti. I'm not holding my breath though.

I'm hoping they don't. Hoping for no major ride refurbs this year while we're there, hated having no btm last year and only doing Disney this year so need our roller coaster fix. Fingers crossed. Still a great ride even without the yeti.
