Hotel was rumoured for a while, interesting to see them confirm it... Steampunk hotel sounds amazing, wonder if it'll be on level of Matamba or cheaper? -
Clearly missing the point when a fair few members on this exact forum are technically illegal in Dubai and surrounding areas due to the out-dated laws... Accusing Mark of being a Daily Mail reader is stealth contender for Post of the Year...

No mention of the food? The food is fab, especially the pancakes Efteling is top tier park; anyone who doesn't like it has no taste or opinion worth talking about...

Would Dubai really be a higher priority than Orlando and the two listed Disney parks? There's a lot of stuff there but beyond Formula Rossa and Flying Aces it's a LOT of mediocrity...

Not sure we can stop the US President from this though........

It's almost akin to the idiocy of Cedar Fair parks closing EVERY SINGLE RIDE as soon as there's a spot of rain... Like even some drizzle was enough to make them close Blue Streak temporarily!

Merlin had the chance to do exactly that after Smiler crashed... Their decisions since show nothing but contempt for "customer experience"...

Be lucky to get any paint given the old "EVERYTHING MUST HAVE A RETURN ON INVESTMENT" nonsense...

*blows dust* 2019 will be the "YEAR OF MAGICKS!" to coincide with the new hotel being built, there's some new additions including what appears to be a walkthrough attraction, a new show and... *checks notes* A new coaster? That's very unexpected, wonder what it is..... SEQUOIA MAGIC LOOP https://www.gardaland.it/en/2019-year-of-magic/#

I'm very much of the opinion that after this the whole Marvel/superhero film stuff will drop in popularity, but I bet 100% there will be tears by the end of this one... Midnight screening here I come!

This is like, the most common business practice at the moment though? Black Friday is the absolute WORST for 'deals' that are no cheaper than the item was sometimes half a year ago for example... Especially around this time of year, it's always best to wait it out... Though would've thought that because the park was so bad this year the loyal customers wouldn't continue to give their money to them?

Technically not Florida, but since the project will essentially be the same thing...... Star Wars Land (Cali edition) update!!!!!! Much like Cars Land, even if you hate the franchise, hot damn does it look purdy...

Blame the neighbours, especially damned in that area of the park... They have a worse relationship with them than with goons...

A helpful French goon has done a quick sketch of the location for the new cred: http://www.disneycentralplaza.com/t53982p475-france-parc-asterix-paris-1989#3442290 The second image denotes a playground, eatery and a potential other new attraction, rumoured to be for 2023 (rather than opening with the coaster)... The pathway to the coaster actually already exists as staff access... Apparently a waterfall (cascades) will be added either to or from the existing pond/lake (the Grand Splatch one)... Finally, apparently they want a new hotel (never stayed in the one they have atm, looks nice though), and here's some concept art to drool over: EDIT - Further reading seems that they're getting a new 4D cinema next season (no idea where, presumably in the Victorian indoor section is my guess) and seemingly the utterly fantastic stunt show has finished for good... Which upsets me greatly because it was one of the best shows I've seen at a park, especially the finale ❤️ Hopefully it'll be replaced adequately...
I saw a while ago that they decided not to use any of the 'classic' baddies for this season, presumably thinking that they could cook up some imaginative ones/focus on the human side of things with the Rosa Parks/India episodes... A decent idea, but not sure if it's working well... It ain't Dr Who unless the Daleks are being reborn. Again...
Because apparently Dutch law means all new major rides MUST have a behind the scenes documentary on them...
