Unfortunately, these ride elements were reportedly absent during a recent ride experience. One guest posted their frustration, saying:
“Pirates question
So pirates has been struggling today. Going down for 2 hour stretches at a time. Then up for an hour. But I noticed this time it doesn’t say temporary closed. Does this mean it’s not opening back up tonight?”
Another commenter shared some additional information on the closure. They alleged that every animatronic had suffered from issues the day before. They said:
“Yesterday night every single animatronic stopped working. Maybe that carried over into today?”
