Will this Favorite Magic Kingdom Attraction Open Today?

Will this Favorite Magic Kingdom Attraction Open Today?

Guests visiting the Magic Kingdom today may have to shuffle their touring plans around just a bit. One favorite Magic Kingdom attraction will not open with the park and we wonder if it will welcome guests at all today.

Attraction Delays

Can you imagine Guests who have meticulously made touring plans with Character Locator only to discover that their favorite attraction is closed? This is a bit disappointing and this can cause Guests to rearrange their touring plans very early in the day.

Recently my (Donna) daughter and I visited the Magic Kingdom at rope drop. We immediately got in line for 7 Dwarfs Mine Train. Due to technical difficulties, we waited for 30 minutes for this attraction to welcome Guests.

This caused us to recalculate our day just a bit, but what if your favorite attraction will be closed for the better part of the day?

There are many beloved attractions throughout the Magic Kingdom, but none quite as beloved as Splash Mountain. We have been told that Splash Mountain will not open to Guests this morning, December 12th. Splash Mountain may possibly reopen in the afternoon, but that is not guaranteed.

This attraction has had a few operational issues throughout the past few months. While we visited in November, we had plans to ride this attraction, but were unable to as the water was completely shut off for the large drop at the end.

We had purchased Disney Genie+ and had a scheduled return time for this attraction. Find out how this affected our Disney Genie+ experience HERE.

A fellow writer, Joe, had a similar experience in November as Splash Mountain was closed for days at a time. We are unsure why this attraction is having so many operational difficulties.

We have been told that Splash Mountain will not open to Guests this morning, December 12th. Splash Mountain may possible reopen in the afternoon, but that is not guaranteed.

Splash Mountain is set to undergo a brief refurbishment soon. We are hoping that many Guests may be able to enjoy this attraction before it will be closed for that time.

What do you think of this attraction being down for yet another day? How have you had to change your touring plans if one of your favorite attractions was non-operational? Share your thoughts with us on our Facebook Page.
