Promoting Pirates
Last week, Disney finallly made it official that the long closures of both the Disneyland and Magic Kingdom editions of Pirates of the Caribbean in March would be used to add elements from the Pirates of the Caribbean movies. Jack Sparrow, Barbossa, and Davy Jones (from this summer’s sequel) will all make their debut with the rides when they reopen in June.
This means our standard response to the many emails each week can shift from “yes, according to everything we’ve heard they will be adding Jack Sparrow to the ride but nothing is ever official until Disney says so and things can always change” to “no, so far as we know, they are not adding a loop or launched start to Pirates of the Caribbean.” The following is the official press release.
