Does anyone realize that they are going to have less than a 50% chance to ride Frozen on any particular day? Epcot attendance is roughly averages 31,000 per day. Maelstrom only had 1,000 riders per hour capacity. That's only going to be 12,000 riders a day, even if you open World Showcase at 9 am. I can't wait to see the wait times if they don't do all FP+.

Not everyone wants to ride Frozen. I certainly don't.

It is going to be crazy ... even worse than the Mine Train! I'd like to ride it, just because, just to see it but I'm glad we're past the "crazy Disney princess" phase, in case we can't get a FP+. There is no way I'll be waiting in those lines.

Same here, my kids are 18 Y/O B/G twins so neither care about princesses, but they are still going to want to see it, if only to see what has become of Maelstrom

Oh, don't say that. I am hoping everyone to wants to ride it. That way while everyone else is in line for Frozen, I can walk onto Soarin' and Test Track. :secret:

On a more serious note, does anyone think they will open Norway before the rest of the World Showcase, just to increase the daily capacity of the Frozen ride?

I'm sort of in that boat BrerGnat, but we need long lines at Soarin' and Frozen to get more rides.

Sure, but i'm they'll probably add a fee onto it. In all seriousness, that's probably what will happen, they'll have an event where you can grab breakfast and ride frozen.

And bet it is a first tier, which means no soaring and Norway or illuminations together

Only if they find a way to generate another revenue stream out of it.

Well that's not true. You have a 100% chance of riding it if you wan to. As long as you are in line before the park closes you will be filtered through.

I agree the lines are going to be crazy long though. And I bet we do see a breakfast and frozen ride package spring up.

That will make for some long nights for the workers. It has to be all FP+, there is no other way.

I disagree, if the lines are like they are for just meeting Anna and Elsa, they will have a point in which they will close the line to stand-bye guest.
