The Walt Disney Company made waves this week with its announcement of a brand-new theme park and resort coming to Abu Dhabi in the United Aram Emirates.

Guests aboard the Disney Wish were met with an unwelcome surprise during the ship’s April 21 voyage — the rollout of a virtual queue system for popular onboard experiences.

Access to the app is complimentary even without a paid Wi-Fi package, but that doesn’t make the move any less controversial.
