Thanks for the info, however I know how the trackless rides work. I’ve ridden mystic manor and poohs hunny hunt.
My surprise is more the dispatch of 6 / 60p is a huge deal for a ride in general.
This does however mean the “show scenes” will be huge to accommodate the cups. And will maybe only have 4 or 5 “scenes”.
Three we know - outside garden, dining room and ballroom all of which will be a somewhat at length stop point before moving on.

Exciting times ahead for opening day and more footage and pics coming out.

Ratatouille doesn't hit 60 per dispatch (off the top of my head it's 15 for DLP) but I would suspect it has a similar hourly throughput given what this ride looks like overall because Ratatouille is very linear and dispatches are very regular.

10 riders per car, 60 people per dispatch is massive. I guess Disney agreed to do OLC’s request to increase capacity on its rides moving forward. Frozen and Tangled I would think will have large capacity boats.

Tokyo Disneyland Large-scale development area will be open on Monday, September 28th!

Oriental Land Co., Ltd. has announced that new attractions, restaurants, and shops will open on September 28, marking the largest expansion of Tokyo Disneyland® Park ever. The large-scale development of Tokyo Disneyland occupies an area of about 47,000 square meters across Fantasyland, Tomorrowland and Toontown—three of the seven themed lands in the Park. This expansion has transformed the area into new magical experiences for guests three years after first breaking ground. The additions to Fantasyland will bring Walt Disney Animation Studios’ Beauty and the Beast film to life through the Enchanted Tale of Beauty and the Beast attraction, shops and dining locations. Tomorrowland will see the addition of The Happy Ride with Baymax attraction and The Big Pop, a shop specializing in popcorn. Toontown will offer the new Disney Character greeting experience called Minnie’s Style Studio. New enchantment awaits guests visiting Tokyo Disney Resort® as we continue to offer new and exciting experiences.

Tokyo Disneyland has implemented measures in accordance with the “Amusement Park and Theme Park New Coronavirus Infection Containment Guidelines,” focusing on the health and safety of our guests and cast members. To avoid congestion, some of the new experiences have been modified and entry will be limited on a temporary basis. A new entry request system via the Tokyo Disney Resort App will be used for assigned time reservations at the new attractions and greeting experience. In addition, entry to the new restaurants and shops will be limited to guests who have made advance reservations. We ask for your understanding and cooperation.

The entire cast of Tokyo Disney Resort is looking forward to welcoming guests and providing an enjoyable experience at the Parks.

Notes regarding the new facilities:
1. Fantasyland Forest Theatre and its “Mickey’s Magical Music World” show, which are part of the new
expansion, will open at a date to be announced later.
