MiceAge 8/23 - No new WDW announcements at D23. Disappointing, but a good business decision... right? http://miceage.micechat.com/kevinyee/ky082311a.htm

For many Walt Disney World fans, this big news this week was the ABSENCE of news coming out of the massive D23 Expo. This was the big event of the year for the Walt Disney Company, and the place where surprise announcements were made before. Even at the much smaller WDW-based Destination D (also a D23 event), there was a surprise announcement concerning the parks, in the form of the Tiki Room’s impending return. Fans have become accustomed to expecting announcements to appear at the big events, but this time, there were no surprises concerning Walt Disney World. The Fantasyland Expansion was talked about, and a visualization of the Seven Dwarves Mine Coaster was shown, but this constituted the release of details about known projects, not the unveiling of something previously unconfirmed.
