COSTUMES NO MORE FOR ADULTS!

Unfortunately, WDW understands sooner or later some dimwit will get the idea of attacking WDW....its bound to happen.

After that people will be saying why didn't they do more to prevent it.

Agreed.

No one will know for sure until they do the parties this year. I'd say if you think it might be considered a weapon, it probably will be unless it's made of foam or something.

Exactly! That might work!

Its hard to know considering we don't know yet their rules. I've gone in with a 4/5ft broom with no issues, I have never seen someone with a bat though. Having not seen that movie, but having seen what it spoofs (Dawn of the Dead) how are you planning to do makeup? If it's going to scare guests they may turn you away due to that.

They are not the zombies (in the part of the movie I am dressing as) so it shouldn't be scary for kids.

Thanks!! This will work perfectly!

Thanks for everyone s input, I hope they allow some costuming, either that or I find a better t-shirt costume.

I'm hoping they allow my fry pan.

And we KNOW that's a weapon, right? Right?!

...still bitter that all Punz gets is a toilet for an attraction.

I'm thinking the security will be more strict since the events of this morning.

mostly around the monorails and buses

What event happened this morning? Do you have any details or possible link to read something about it?

Check CNN or other news outlet-event in Brussels.

only security increase around WDW is at MCO

I'm with others who have felt this does not really register on their outrage meter. Disney is floating things out there, and doing things, that really make me question my love for WDW, but this is not one of them. I can completely understand the ban on costumes (and play weapons). I have never dressed up to go to WDW (nor had the urge to do so), so it really is not an issue for me. These rumored resort fees? Closing half of Hollywood Studios all at once? The $149 premium for three hours at MK? These cause me far more angst about the direction WDW is heading.

 

[mitsukoshi samurai]

BTW anybody notice any increased security at WDW today?

Agreed. I do kind of miss the elaborate costumes at runDisney events, but if it keeps everyone safer, I'm all for it.

Brussels bombings.

And a plane left Brussels for Orlando Sanford 30 minutes after the explosion. I guess in case a bomber had gotten on it ...

Via Sentinel "The plane landed in a "remote" area (of Orlando airport) and passengers were bused to U.S. Customs and Border Protection for processing, airport ldrs tells me."

Then lots of reports of diverted flights coming and going to Brussels. MCO and other airports are tightened.

Kinda hard to limit how many water bottles bring with the extreme heat of Florida. But I can see how a backpack can be more of a security issue then adults wearing a costume at the Halloween Party.

Any counter service will provide you a free cup of ice water so in theory yes, they could start restricting bottled water being brought in.

 

[jerseygirl82]

Even when the precautions are silly? I hope everyone realizes the next thing to be banned will be large bags, liquids and outside food. I don't want to hear they can't do that, it is private property they can do what they want. If you don't like it, don't come.

Exactly. And if you don't like their costume policy, don't come.

 

[book_junkie]

They posted the new party restrictions today.

 

[jerseygirl82]

I agree with Angel Ariel, the Halloween party costume issue, is not a security issue.

I was talking to DH if WDW gets too wacky with the security we might go somewhere else.

Yes, God forbid Disney take measures that they feel protect their guests. What monsters!

 

[kittyab]

That is a very unwelcoming thing to say.
