Just got home yesterday from an 8 night Disney trip. Stayed at Boardwalk Villas and had an awesome time. This trip was me, my sister and my nephew (her 5 year old). The only other time he has been was when he was 3. On that previous trip he LOVED seeing the characters and getting autographs. This trip he barely cared. That was fine with us, less time standing in lines!
BUT there were a few characters he wanted to see - Buzz being one. And here is my big complaint.
You get in line to see a character. And wait and wait and wait. Then out of the blue the cast member with the character will say "okay, this is the last family, Buzz has to go in now." Leaving tons of crying children standing in line. These children cannot understand this. All they understand is "why doesn't Buzz want to see ME?" Not to mention the angry parents, wasting 20 minutes standing in line for nothing, and now having to deal with crying kids.
One time we tried to see Buzz the cast member yelled out "Buzz is going in in 5 minutes." I thought, no big deal, we'll make it. Not 25 seconds later she says "Buzz is going in in 4 minutes." 30 seconds later it was "3 minutes." It was ridiculous! But most of the time there was no warning at all.
I am still so angry about this and want to write to someone. Anyone know to who?
ALL they have to do is close the line! Sure the kids might be disappointed with "we'll need to try to see Buzz later." But that's a lot better than standing in the line for nothing. The ONLY place we saw them close a line was at Al's Toy Barn at MGM. And it worked perfectly. She even told you exactly what time they would be back.
If anyone knows who to write to, please let me know.
Thanks!
