That is a lot of food places to be shut at the same time!

Gosh I hope its not this bad when we go the end of January, already there is an added closure of the studio tram tour so far I hope they don't add too many more as already missing big thunder mountain, the railroad, robinson tree house and also peter pan if it stays at same date. Have looked at restaurant closures that was posted on here and doesn't look too bad. I really hope there isn't gonna be too many green fences up and noise it will defo put me off 😞

In my honest opinion (I arrived back early hours of this morning) I don't think the green boards are too horrific! Theres only 3 that I thought were ugly - studios stars in cars area, small world and railway station on main street. The others were visible but didn't obscure photos in anyway.

The main street one was particularly bad as it was central and there was scaffolding all over but it wasn't trip ruining by any means.

All in all I would say don't worry about this in the slightest, if your that offended by a bit of green fencing I think you need to avoid visiting full stop because its by far not the most pressing issue DLP has.

Rebecca20 I've been lurking, praying & waiting for you to post on your return from your holiday. I know DLP it's not going to be perfect when we travel in November, but in all honesty what's perfect or one will not be for another. I can cope with a bit of green fencing, a few Rides being refurbished & restaurants closed, but we will be away on holiday making memories with our children, and or partners / family. I for one cannot wait x

It's not like it will stop you enjoying your holiday, it isn't pretty but other than that it's still Disneyland!

The only thing that's an issue is when other attractions break down (at the same time) because there's a lot of other rides already have refurb but we still had a magical trip and still count ourselves lucky to be able to visit DLP enjoy your trip!  :D

Re rides breaking down - there was not one ride that broke down during our stay that affected us for more than 5 minutes! We managed to do ALL the rides that were open over 2 days and do some meet and greets too. It was super quiet so unless theres a huge mechanical failure I wouldn't worry as the parks were so quiet you could literally just walk onto a different ride. The longest we waited was 10 minutes for Dumbo and 45 for Stitch meet. If you use fastpass wisely you should have an enjoyable and queue free trip.

N.B. obviously we went during school term time so it was quieter than holidays.

The breakdowns we encounterd were I assume major ones on the Saturday pirates was down all but 2 hours of the entire day BTM was down for a good few hours too however we have been around 30 times and this is uncommon to happen and DLP had maintance workers on the case the entire time from what I could see. They really do try their best to get things up again ASAP

That sucks - we got 'stuck' at the top of the pirates drop but only for a few minutes. Nothing else went wrong thankfully.

Jeez! Worst breakdown for me was rock n roller coaster 😂 long ago I thought we were goners the train behind us we could hear! Tot broke Down once pitch black but thankfully on the ground level!
The cast member of pirates said a child jumped out of the boat that day then later whilst waiting to ride (45 min) we was waiting at exit mind u my son had a reservation time for the second time as missed first one as closed alarm went and broke down until the next day lunchtime it was up!

Do you know why u stopped there? Wondering if pirates are having continuing issues over the years I've never seen that many breakdowns and never pirates hence the huge que! Buzz had a breakdown to then when open 70min que! I think it mounts the wait time up but credit to Disney they deal with it best they can. Was a bad day for them I think ppl were queing for city ball all shouting and everything it was awful but what do people expect rides do break down! There's lots more to see and do  :D

I know!!
It got to the point that i could recite the "playful spooks" blah in french too by the end of our trip...also climbing down a ladder on peter pan then getting stuck for another 30 mins when we returned for our fastpass apology. Slight bonus...the extended fault on buzz meant as a family we all maxed out the score display 999999!

Sounds like you took the positives from the breakdowns  ;D

Gotta love phantom manor, it's in my little lads top 3. (pirates, star tours, Phantom manor) and I've never got a score of that! How long was you stuck then was you there same time as us I wonder?

I have no clue why pirates stopped - the hilarious thing was it was our 9th ride and we had our poses ready for the photo and then low and behold we just stopped ;D
