Disney caters to guests with fear of heights.
WALT DISNEY WORLD, FL — When park officials announce the construction of the Disney Skyliner gondola system, they released concept art showing colorful, whimsical gondola cars featuring Disney characters. However, apparently the actual cars are much more bland. Video footage released by Disney parks last week show the cars completely wrapped in a bland brown material.
We reached out to Disney (the company) spokesperson Jun Disney (no relation) for an explanation.
The thrill is gone
“Isn’t it obvious?” Disney (no relation) asked. “It’s not supposed to be a thrill ride, but transportation. And since Walt Disney World has been relying on buses more, the trend in Disney transportation has been toward ‘boring.’ We’d hate to disrupt things too much.
“Besides, folks are so sensitive now about having all of their little idiosyncrasies catered to, like ‘phobias’ and ‘allergies.’ We’re just erring on the safe side, so no one with a fear of heights will be able to complain.”
Have you figured out how we’d actually get on board one of these things? Comment below!
