Not sure about winter closing but I know one is normally closed about Sep time when I believe they do maintenance etc on it.

Have Disney said why they haven't opened the waterparks?
I thought with the chlorine it would be fairly safe?

Let's try again.

I didn't know about winter as never been or looked into going that time of year. Think it would be nice for a xmas trip but I imagine it would be cold (like a British summer ha ha) and very busy.

Yeah I would guess it must be financial them not opening the waterparks. The waterparks as far as i can see are no more risky to open than the other parks. I'd personally say they're safer due to chlorine.

Let's try again.

I am not surprised at all. Most visitors at the moment are locals or other Americans on short breaks. Neither will be very interested in visiting a waterpark in the winter.

I�m also not surprised by this to be honest. I got the email a couple of days ago.

When we went in December it was mostly brits in the water parks, the brits aren�t there at the moment and probably are unlikely to be back this winter so I can understand why it�s been closed.

They usually close one for refurbishment and leave one open.
