While there are so many great and unique rides and attractions at the Tokyo Disney Resort, it can be tough to compare new rides at the Park to classics of the same storyline that are in other Disney Parks around the world, holding a very “classic magic” feeling to them. The Resort has an incredible version of Pirates of the Caribbean that makes some wish the American Parks would consider updating. But unfortunately, the upcoming refurbishment for the ride recently was extended, leaving the attraction closed for over 7 months now.
According to the official Tokyo Disney website, Pirates of, the Caribbean will be closed now from September 5 of this year to April 7 of 2023. Previously, the ride was only going to be closed until the end of March. We aren’t sure why the refurbishment was extended or what will be done to the ride while it is being worked on but we sure are sad that the ride will not be operational for most of the year.
