See I don’t know if I buy that Tron sells out this much because for what it’s worth, over the last hour the ILL return window only moved up 10 minutes. It seems like by early afternoon everyone who wanted ILL for TRON has already gotten it. I’ve checked many other days as well snd it’s always the same. I’m still a firm believer Disney will take TRON off ILL once Tiana opens

There are still reservations in California.

To get a preview AND get paid? Why not? OTOH, you may be done with the ride after riding it over and over and over and over again for the shoot.

“Talent will be required to ride over and over (and over and over) and will be expected to convey thrills and joy“

Per Thrill data, it has only not sold out once or twice in the past Month. Although I do not know the mix or ILL vs Standby/VQ so it is possible that 7D is like 80% ILL and Tron is like 20% ILL. I actually think the VQ hurts ILL sales for Tron. I can for free get a 45min wait time for Tron, where 7D is hard to find under 80 mins.

This is what you get when you have a high height requirement (for Disney) but not high thrill. It probably helps them more as a Genie option.

I have suspicions they make more off Seven Dwarfs even at the $11 price tag compared to TRON at $20. Seven Dwarfs constantly sells out every single day, whereas TRON has ILL availability pretty much at any point throughout the day. They are not usually selling out.

53 year old rides are more popular but it is by no means hated.

I have not been plugged in (haha) on Tron, is that the case?

It would be tantamount to admitting your new E-ticket isn't all that popular. Oof.

Yeah no inside information, but from publicly available information (price on ILL). It would seem like an odd choice to keep 7D on ILL and take Tron off.

Nothing a guest will notice.

This is the first I'm hearing of ride system "improvements" what would those be?

If posts on here from two decades ago are to be believed, Splash/Tiana should be able to hit up to 1800 guests per hour. https://forums.wdwmagic.com/threads/ride-capacities-everest-and-splash-mountain.66949/ I know this slipped in later years. I’ve seen numbers as low as 1080 per hour. With the rumoured ride system “improvements”, I would expect that it would be able to hit the former target.
