Has Stitch's Great Escape... escaped?

Is this attraction still operating on a seasonal timetable, or has it closed now?

The attraction is gone, but they run a Stitch meet and greet in the entrance area now.

Yep definitely gone.

We’ve seen pictures of the ride area completely gutted.

Agreed. An awful attraction.

I wonder what they plan to do with the space? Probably another gift shop.

Officially, Disney's website states that it is "Temporarily Closed".

disneyworld.disney.go/en...-great-escape/

However, it's pretty much considered closed for good. They do have Stitch meet'n'greets in the entrance area though.

At one point, it was rumoured that the area would be used for a Wreck-It-Ralph VR attraction. But Disney still haven't announced anything. Disney hasn't even formally said it's closed for good yet.

I missed this.., Alien Encounter, I mean. the time before last I went was in 1992 and it was "Mission to Mars".

The kids hated Stitch's Great Escape but I couldn't for the life of me work out why it felt familiar - especially the pre-show - until I did some research.
