It looks like the folks behind Shanghai Disneyland are feeling a little less confident about that previously projected 2015 finish date. Construction of the theme park will be "basically" finished this year, Shanghai Mayor Yang Xiong said yesterday, adding that the Shanghai Disney Resort's opening is still being discussed.Sources:A source familiar with the resort told China Daily earlier in January that there 'might be some difficulty with a 2015 opening'.

"Our ticketing system has a preset daily admission limit. Once that is reached, no one will be allowed to enter until it drops again," said Chen Chao, a political adviser and senior official at Shanghai International Tourism and Resorts Zone, which manages the theme park.
