- Calling in advance is one of the least reliable methods for finding
- out which attractions at Disney parks will not be available.
-
- Not that I doubt the sincerity of those cast members answering the
- phones when you call or those who put up the lists of attractions
- which will be closed for refurbishing on the ticket booths. They are
- just reading from a script provided for them by their superiors.
-
- My impression is that during the non-peak season, some rides will
- be listed as closed, but opened if attendance warrants their use.
- And I have seen that happen for the Columbia, Snow White's Scary
- Adventures, Peoplemovers, Skyway, Autopia, etc. at Disneyland and
- one ride at the Magic Kingdom in WDW.
-
- Calling in advance is still a good idea if you are worried about a
- "major" attraction being closed for the time you will be in the park.
