Creator's Key Takeaways

the parks operating loss was two billion dollars and the adverse impact to the psych park experience and products was three and a half billion dollars

the value proposition definitely has has shrunk has gone down and has decreased uh there's no park hopping there's limited numbers of things to do

it is definitely better for them to have the parks open than closed but it's not where they want to be yet

the business reality is if you don't have the cash flow then you're not going to spend uh expensive money that you don't have

Creator's Tips & Advice

Be aware of reduced park hours and limited availability of attractions due to current operating models.
