All flowery corporate rhetoric aside, that line pretty much sums up why this plan is being implemented. Look forward to seeing even more Pixar and Princess nonsense filling up the Magic Kingdoms in the coming years. |

But what thing that annoys me is how the Disney Company says that the laying off of 800 employees and the guest will not see a decline in their experience in either park. Not for nothing but fewer housekeepers and custodial staff is going to mean more messy room and more trash around the parks. |

| avro_imagineer Tue 2/24/2009 4:17p | ^^ get rid of a handful of executives. You'll get the 800 (and then some) back mousekeepers and custodial. Now I know executives are paid big bucks for hard decisions (including tile colour, selected from a handful presented by a professional designer) but if you think about decisions/effort put in per choice. (Say a mousekeeper does a minimum of 8 rooms, each room with half a dozen decisions) versus the 1 decision an executive makes after a week of golf...

| TINK-MOBILE Tue 2/24/2009 7:29p | I agree with you trekkeruss...a passport that would allow Disney's Guests access to both DL AND WDW...now that would be a good thing....Perhaps even a Ap pass for Families.....set rates depending on sizes of course..... |
