In case you’re having issues making Disney Park Cross reservations…you’re not alone!
There was a rush about 10 minutes after this information broke, and the system has been unreliable (to place it charitably) since. Not one of the regular methods (e.g. personal shopping, completely different gadgets) appear to be working, probably as a result of the Walt Disney World web site is being slammed with excessive visitors.
I’m undecided which is worse: ready in a multi-hour digital queue to register…solely to be shut out or continuously refreshing the Park Cross web page and finally scoring reservations after an hour or so…solely to be shut out of the digital queue on the day you booked for the Tiana’s Bayou Journey preview. A choose your poison kinda situation, it might appear. Good luck to everybody, regardless–right here’s hoping Sew will get full quickly!
Be aware that these previews start virtually instantly after the media occasion ends, with Solid Member previews previous to that. Apparently, this nonetheless leaves about one week between the preview interval and the grand opening of Tiana’s Bayou Journey on June 28, 2024.
TRON Lightcycle Run had nothing scheduled for two+ weeks between the top of previews and the official opening of TRON Lightcycle Run, which led us to take a position that mushy openings would happen. And so they did. On this case, we aren’t anticipating basic public mushy openings of Tiana’s Bayou Journey…however the door remains to be open for them.
That week of downtime is not nothing, particularly given the extra laid again model of those Annual Passholder previews. It offers Magic Kingdom the chance to start out working Tiana’s Bayou Journey if the park wants capability–or in the event that they need to promote extra of the Genie+ service to everybody shut out of the digital queue!
Regardless, we might NOT financial institution on there being mushy openings. Attainable doesn’t imply possible. Other than TRON Lightcycle Run, which was an anomaly since Disney clearly timed previews in such a way to permit for mushy openings throughout spring break, Walt Disney World hasn’t completed mushy openings for a serious attraction in a number of years. It’s all been these managed, pre-registered previews for choose visitors. Tiana’s Bayou Journey is much more of a ‘identified amount’ much less in want of previews for the reason that trip system is unchanged from its predecessor, Splash Mountain.
