If they can drop the park reservations, I’m all for this transition!!!! Geez. For me it is those reservations but even moreso the limits on park hopping (why after 2pm is magic?) and bring back free and gettable fastpasses. Definitely agree on the 2pm hopping even more than the reservations.
Free fastpasses is a ship that has sailed, no matter who takes over. Just a highly likely reality.
Cheers.

It sounds like George Disney is the George Glass of potential CEO's.
Bonus points to anyone old enough to get the reference.

Can't say I've ever heard of George Disney. I have my doubts... And a google of the name brought up basically nothing.... Here is what Chat-GPT says..and AI is likely not as easily misled as I.. No, there is no record of a George Disney being part of the famous Disney family. The Disney family is primarily associated with the founder of The Walt Disney Company, Walt Disney, his brother Roy O. Disney, and their descendants who have played key roles in the company's operations over the years. HA! This inspired me to ask chatgpt to make up a short story about my troubles buying an AP this morning. Here is what I got (surprisingly close!)

Honestly I can stomach park reservations if they drop the darn 2pm limit for hopping! Park-hopping is allowed starting at 11 at Disneyland. With the 2 parks just literally steps apart in CA, we have always park hopped in the past (including sometimes going through security from the CGV to California Adventure, then walking through that park to enter DL). However, on a brief trip to DL last month, I opted against PH tickets. Interestingly, it seemed like everyone I spoke with either had an AP — err, I mean a MK — or a one park per day ticket. I wonder if the park reservation requirements have meant Disney is leaving money on the table as guests elect not to upgrade to PHs (in contrast to WDW where there was always a significant group of guests who didn’t see the value in park hopping). If so, I see park reservations vanishing sooner at DL than at WDW. Unfortunately no DLR for me unless some neuromuscular issues clear up. If they dropped PH to even 11 would be nice. This 2pm crap sucks. And yes might hurt bottom lines for those who dislike the restrictions

You all forgot about ME, Doug Disney. Vote me in for CEO and I will get rid of park passes, give all MO's free AP's, and reinstate Fast Pass!

I saw an article the other day that threw out Jon Favreau name, sounds like a long shot but it would be interesting and I like the George Glass BB reference.
As far as the 2:00pm PH goes I don't like it but it does make some sense. I am guessing that the attendance drops in the afternoon due to people heading back to their resorts for pool time and naps making room for guest to jump parks. This would also support the dropping of reservations after 2:00 for AP holders.
