Capacity looks, well - um - low, no? Keep
in mind these are optimal loading times and numbers - something that
will be rarely achieved in real time / world operation. We've all been
on rides that don't cycle this efficiently at Disneyland.
By the way - as you'll note above, most
attraction pre- shows, such as the one planned for the Soaring Imax film
have been yanked due to FastPass (and to save money). The Whoopie movie
still has no set final timing - due to a death scene everyone is nervous
about that they have to either keep or get rid of.
