30 mins early park entry for staying onsite rides here.

Splash is missing from early hours too.
Beginning to think we might not get one last ride on it.

Splash was never on morning hours, as that section of the park doesn't open for EMH. But given they're starting to talk about the refurb a lot more now, I suspect it's going to close fairly soon.

Aren’t RoTR and Remy virtual q only…. So no surprise out of the list!

Is this just for deluxe hotels?

No, early entry is for all Disney owned resorts and the partner hotels. Full list of hotels here: disneyworld/guest-...s/early-entry/

It's just the evening hours that are restricted to deluxe.

The rest of AK is so intricately detailed then you enter Dinoland and it's like did Joe give up before he finished the job?

Joe didn’t give up, they just cut the budget.

No surprise there. Some things never change.

Dinoland is also intricately detailed, just as much as the rest of the park. It's actually surprising the amount of theming that went into it.

However, because the budget was cut, they cheaped out on some fairground rides and then built the theming around that American fun fair theme for Chester & Hester's Dino-Rama part of Dinoland.

I loved Primeval Whirl though even if I do acknowledge that it's just a glorified funfair ride. A bit like half the rides in MK.

They might as well just put the boards up around it now and shut it. It’s got rebrand and re-theme written all over it. Next couple of years for definite. Zootopia has been rumoured for years.

Not only that, but he started the regeneration of Epcot with major changes in the works - which have since been downscaled due to the pandemic. We're getting GOTG, Ratatouille, Moana-themed water area, Play Pavilion, Space 220, maybe a few other things. We're also getting Tron at MK.

Chapek wasn't afraid to spend money but it's also clear that he's not afraid to make money either. The way he's going about it might be as unsubtle as a brick though.
