Shanghai Disneyland is very far behind both cost and production wise, the park may not be opening on the announced June date and it is putting financial stress on US Disney parks.
Although Disney has not yet may any public announcement about any cuts being made you can see them already starting to happen here in the states.
It is being reported that Disneyland in California has already had a 20% cut in labor costs, jobs such as entertainment, custodial, attractions, guest relations, and others have been cut.
Cuts can also be seen in Walt Disney World in Florida; so far 3 Meet & Greets at Epcot, 2 in Hollywood Studios and one in Magic Kingdom have been cut. Also curbside greeters at the resorts are disappearing, hours are being cut from resort front desk and concierge and there is more to come!
And this doesn’t seem to be the end either as Disneyland Shanghai is not yet open and will likely need more money, and it seems the only place to get it from is domestic Disney parks!

The Disney Company is killing the golden goose….
It’s not fair that because Shanghai Disney is so over budget the US parks have to take the hit. Taking away greeters, concierges and front desk staff is sure to make people visiting the American parks unhappy. How about the countries that want Disney there so much pony up some money to help build it? Otherwise Disney should pull out and say, “sorry, but we just can’t do it at this time”.
