Disney Guest Files Suit Claiming She Was Injured by Falling Speaker at Swan and Dolphin Resort

A husband and wife from Arizona has filed a law suit against the operator and manager of the Walt Disney World Dolphin Hotel after the wife was allegedly injured by a speaker.

Sarae and Zuli Steremberg filed a complaint on June 1 with the 9th Judicial Circuit Court of Florida – Orange County against Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide LLC; Audio Visual Services Group Inc. doing business as PSAV Presentation Services; and Julius Santiago alleging negligence.

In the the complaint, the plaintiffs allege that on March 8, 2016  Sarae Steremberg was struck by a falling speaker that was installed by its vendor PSAV while walking in a common space around the pool area. As a result Steremberg claims to have suffered significant, permanent and traumatic injuries, and disability. And as a result required surgical procedures and incurred medical expenses. Her husband alleges he suffered loss of services, companionship, conjugal life and protection of his wife.

The plaintiffs are holding Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide LLC, Audio Visual Services Group Inc. and Santiago responsible stating the defendants allegedly failed to warn plaintiff of the existence of the overhead speakers and its imminent danger, and allowed guests to walk along a common pathway without installing barriers to protect guests.

The plaintiffs have requested a trial by jury and are seeking judgment against defendants for compensatory damages, interest, taxable costs and further relief that the court deems just. The defendants  are represented by Peter F. Carr Jr. and Mitzi Sommer Carr of Carr Law Firm PA in Orlando.

Imperial Walkers Have Been Spotted Inside Star Wars Land At Hollywood Studios

AT-AT

The All Terrain Armored Transport, or AT-AT walker, is a combat vehicle used by the Imperial ground forces that first appeared in The Empire Strikes Back. Hollywood Studios currently has an AT-AT residing outside of the Star Tours attraction but it looks like two more are on their way to the new Star Wars Land.

The new Star Wars Land “Battle Escape” attraction building is now home to two new AT-AT walkers. You can see them in the inside top right of the building.

Another viewpoint of the building. The arrow makes it a little easier to pick them out.

Currently the AT-ATs are headless. The last remaining pieces are still outside waiting to be assembled.

So what do you think? Are you getting excited to see what the finished Star Wars Land will be like? 2019 can’t come soon enough for me!

Animal Kingdom’s Pizzafari is Now Accepting Mobile Orders

Pizzafari Mobile Ordering

With the opening of Pandora – The World of Avatar, we saw Disney introduce a new way to purchase Quick Service meals. Satu’li Canteen became the first restaurant to offer the new mobile ordering feature, via the My Disney Experience app. Disney had announced plans to extend this service to more quick service locations throughout the Walt Disney World Resort, and now its official, you can pre-order your Pizzafari meal on your mobile device!

Animal Kingdom's Pizzafari is Now Accepting Mobile Orders

Guests will purchase their orders in advance using the My Disney Experience app. Upon arrival you will skip the wait line and head to the mobile order pick-up window, where your meal will be waiting.

https://twitter.com/WDWToday/status/877919118971650048

Mobile ordering  currently unavailable for guests using a Disney dining plan, but as you can see in the screenshot above, the app says they aren’t accepting dining plans “just yet.” I am sure it wont be long before this becomes an option. How great would it be if you could track your dining plan credits through your My Disney Experience app?!

Disney CEO Bob Iger Hints at Another Theme Park Coming to China

bob iger contract extension

Bob Iger Pay Cut

Walt Disney Chair and CEO Bob Iger talks with Bloomberg TV about the first anniversary of Shanghai Disneyland and the possibility of another Disney park in China. Watch the full interview below.

 

YouTube player

Disney’s newest park, Shanghai Disneyland had  more than 11 million visitors in its first full year.  This is the best performance of any Disney theme park during its first year and Disney is beyond thrilled.

There is a huge opportunity for Disney to expand in China’s marketplac, so it comes as no suprise a 3rd park could be in the works. Although there have been some challenges at Shanghai Disneyland they are steadily being worked out.

There is plenty of room for expansion at Shanghai Disneyland as it only occupies a portion of the resort. It will most likely be while before we hear of or see plans for that area. Currently the park is adding a Toy Story themed land rumored to open later next year.

What do you think of the possibility of another Disney theme park in China?
