Deaths in Disney: Newsworthy?

Last week, in reporting the death of a 12-year-old girl who collapsed at the Typhoon Lagoon water park, I asked if you felt that deaths not attributable to any wrongdoing on Disney's part should be covered by MousePlanet. You really responded to the question, resulting in my second-largest flood of mail in the 2-1/2 years that I've been writing for MousePlanet. We'll run some of those letters in an upcoming mailbag column, but I'll sum up the general sentiments here.

Many of you lament the fact that these incidents make the news, and feel that deaths that are health-related or not due to any fault on Disney's part should not be reported at all in the media. Another large group of respondents noted that, while these events really should not be reported, they prefer that MousePlanet continue to cover them because they want to know the relevant facts and viewpoints not reflected in the mainstream media, who they feel sensationalize these tragic events because the name "Disney" makes for great headlines.

Another group feels that, because it can't always be determined immediately whether or not Disney is at fault, the stories should at least be covered until Disney's role is either confirmed or ruled out. Finally, the last significant group of respondents feel that it should be reported because either they want to know everything that happens at Disney parks, or because they think that the mistakes made by those who died serve as good reminders to properly plan and behave themselves at Walt Disney World, instead of letting their guard down and forgetting common sense rules, such as keeping hydrated on hot, humid days.

After reviewing all of the letters, it looks like the general consensus is that MousePlanet should continue to cover these stories. However, unless it is a truly noteworthy story, I may not lead the Update with it. Thanks for all of your input!

Why the name change?

Last week we reported that the names of the Magic Your Way Plus Pack and Premium Ticket were being changed to the "Water Park Fun & More option " and "Magic Your Way with Park Hopper and Water Park Fun & More," respectively. While we had heard that the "Premium Ticket" and "Premium Package" were getting confused in people's minds, we were not certain as to the confusion over the Plus Pack.

Well, we've now heard that in the last couple of months, Disney has sent out e-mail surveys asking questions about the names of the Magic Your Way passes as well as other possible pass names, and what guests expected would be included in each pass name. It appears that the reason for the change in nomenclature is that people have been ordering base tickets with the "Magic Plus Pack" option thinking that they were ordering "Park Hopper Plus" tickets. Experienced guests or those whose research only included the previous names of the admission passes apparently only registered the "Plus" and they thought it was the same thing. Hopefully, "Water Parks & More" will help with that problem, as it does not contain the word "Plus" and it more concisely tells you what that option gives you.

Polynesian goes online today, remaining resorts also scheduled to get wired

The Polynesian Resort is scheduled to become the 15th Walt Disney World resort to provide high-speed Internet service to guests today. All of the other deluxe (with the exception of Animal Kingdom Lodge) and home-away-from-home resorts already have their high-speed hookups online, and the Coronado Springs and Port Orleans French Quarter resorts are also up and running.

The expected schedule for the remaining moderate and value resorts is as follows:

  • Port Orleans Riverside - September 1
  • Caribbean Beach - October 20
  • Animal Kingdom Lodge - October 27
  • All Star Movies - December 6
  • All Star Music - January 13, 2006
  • All Star Sports - February 14, 2006
  • Pop Century Classic Years - April 19, 2006

The in-room Ethernet connections, which require an LAN cable for connectivity, will be billed to your room and cost $9.95 for 24 contiguous hours. (If you first use it at 9 p.m., you've paid for it through 9 p.m. the next night.) Technical support is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week by touching 56 from your guest room phone or on any house phone.

Wi-Fi wireless access is also available at several resorts. The BoardWalk, Contemporary, Coronado Springs, Grand Floridian, Yacht Club and Beach Club resorts feature access in many public areas, including lobbies, lounges and pool areas. Check with the resort for details.

The Wi-Fi connections require a wireless interface card in your computer (available for purchase in hotel gift shops where Wi-Fi is available) and cost $4.99 for the first 60 minutes or $9.95 for 24 contiguous hours. Service is provided by Smart City, who also provide technical support 24 hours a day, 7 days a week at 407-938-HELP (407-938-4357).

Of course, you can also access your ISP via a POTS (Plain Old Telephone System) connection if you wish, though regular resort phone charges will apply.

If you're staying at the Swan or Dolphin Resorts, you've had high-speed Internet connectivity for a while. The two resorts have Starwood Turbo Net High Speed Internet in all guests rooms. With the same requirements as the in-room access in the Disney resorts (network card in your PC, CAT5 Ethernet cable in room), the Internet access is included with the standard $10 per night resort fee.

Tom Joyner tix on sale now

Tickets for the "Disney-MGM Studios Party" during the Tom Joyner Family Reunion on September 3 are now on sale. The party starts at 9 p.m. and includes entertainment and many of the Studios' feature attractions such as Rock 'n' Roller Coaster and the Twilight Zone Tower of Terror. Live acts include Ashanti, Jill Scott, Lionel Richie, Damon Wayans, Omarion, Hammer, Shirley Caesar, Smokie Norful, Lil Irocc, Dr. Bobby Jones, and more. The tickets cost $60 per person and are available by phone at 407-W-DISNEY (407-934-7639) or online via Ticketmaster (link).

Winn-Dixie status

For those who prefer to stock up on groceries while at Walt Disney World and who are watching the reorganization or Winn-Dixie with a wary eye, here's a bit of good news. There are only a couple of stores along the common route from the airport to Walt Disney World or nearby that will be closing. The Winn-Dixie locations at the Hunter's Creek Shopping Center and the SouthChase shopping center will be the only ones affected. (Another one in Winter Park is also closing, but that is likely visited by very few out-of-towners.) The two closing locations are near each other. The Hunter's Creek location is off of the John Young Parkway (SR-423) exit from the Central Florida Greeneway (exit 10) and the SouthChase location is off of the South Orange Blossom Trail (US-92/US-441) exit from the Greeneway (exit 11).

If you use a Winn-Dixie location that was not listed and you're still concerned about its status, go to the affected stores list on the Winn-Dixie web site (link) and find your store. (The Orlando Daytona region is about two-thirds of the way down the list.)

MouseFest events announced

The schedule for MouseFest 2005 is starting to fill up. Many Web sites have announced gatherings to be held all over Walt Disney World and aboard the Disney Wonder during the event. Check the MouseFest Web site (link) for details.

Thus far, MousePlanet is sponsoring three events for this third annual gathering of the Disney Internet community. First and foremost is our Mini-MouseAdventure event, a shortened version of MousePlanet's signature event (link). This marks the first time that the event has been held in Florida. (Last year, a "taste of MouseAdventure" was included in the MouseFest program guide). The event will run from approximately 10:00 a.m. until noon on Thursday, December 1. The Mini-MouseAdventure will be immediately followed by our second event, the second annual Mike Scopa Dole Whip Meet, at Aloha Isle in Adventureland.

Our final scheduled event will be the first annual MousePad Shocolate Mousssse Meet at Boulangerie Patisserie in Epcot's France pavilion at 5:00 p.m. on Saturday, December 3, following the Mega Mouse Meet event at the Walt Disney World Swan hotel. For more on the origin of the Shocolate Mousssse phenomenon among MousePlanet readers, please see this thread on our MousePad discussion forums.

More information will be released about these events in early September.

Ears to the ground

…After originally reporting that the Pinocchio's Village Haus quick-service eatery would be closing on May 8 to begin changing their kitchen over from burgers to pizza and Italian specialties, then having that change be pushed back, we're now hearing that the new menu should debut today. If anyone out there can confirm that this is or is not true, please let us know.

…We are hearing unconfirmed reports that the Pooh's Playful Spot playground in the Magic Kingdom is targeted for a September 1 opening.

…It is a possibility that the Happy HalloWishes fireworks, debuting this year at Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party, may have a couple of test firings on September 26 and 28 in place of the regular nightly Wishes performance.

…Aunt Polly's Dockside Inn on Tom Sawyer Island begins its seasonal closure August 14.

…The ABC Commissary at the Disney-MGM Studios reportedly closes September 6-12 for some backstage refurbishment.

…The Newsstand shop on the Streets of America Backlot at the Disney-MGM Studios reportedly closes September 13-22 to install the Osborne Spectacle of Lights.

…Speaking of the Osborne lights, we have heard reports that the large globe was installed last week.

…There's an interesting article in the Christian Examiner about Walt Disney World president Al Weiss and his involvement in the church planting movement (link).
