If you go to Disney World Be warned.
Various things can go wrong during your trip. Slower-than-expected return times for mobile orders, technical issues that can greatly ruin plans, and unexpected closures. If you’re at Disney World today, a few sudden ride closures can throw your schedule off the rails. Here’s what you need to know!
As I strolled through Disney’s Hollywood Studios, I noticed The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror Closed. A cast member said he doesn’t know when the ride will resume, but hopes it will resume today.
Cast members stood outside the attraction to guide guests and answer questions. update: Tower of Terror is reopened.
But there is another closure to consider. When I checked the My Disney Experience app, test track Closed at EPCOT. This was around 2:41 PM EST. At about 3:16 PM ET, the ride was still closed.
Test track cast members indicated they weren’t sure if it would resume later.
