Cruise and Theme Park Operational Updates due to Coronavirus

[choirfarm]

It's already been posted that this info was inaccurate. From the article:

However, it turns out those positive cases were not all airport employees and the cases were from a period of several months, according to the Orlando International Airport.

Orlando airport executives refuted the numbers Wednesday, clarifying not all 260 people are workers nor were they part of the group of 500 workers tested as referenced by the governor.

Ok, but looking forward this is what I've found:
According to Brown, from mid-March through June 6, a total of 132 airport workers — including airline and rental car company employees, TSA workers and airport authority staff — tested positive for the disease caused by the new coronavirus. In addition to that, 128 people tested positive who don’t work at the airport, but who were linked through contact tracing to the 132 airport workers with confirmed COVID-19 infections.

132 is really bad and that caused the other ones. Imagine it happening at MCO.

it did happen at MCO
132/25000 is actually 0.528% which is better rate than the community around it
128 vs 132 indicates just as many people not working there caught it.
If it helps lower the number of people coming to Disney by people not wanting to fly into MCO I am not surprised the report isn’t being rapidly corrected

Dvc member services open at 9am for phone dining reservations tomorrow. Does the other phone number open at the same time or earlier? I’m trying to plan... or because my reservation is booked DVC I can only call them? I’m really craving Sanaa butter chicken!!

To me, the most important aspect of the changes taking place is the long-term impact. Reading through comments (mostly in other threads, as the folks that hang out in this thread are very informed), there are many people that think that what is happening this Summer and Fall will have minor impact on their 2021 plans. But, we've learned that the Reservations System is here to stay through at least Sept 2021 (based on the leaks to British TAs). There are strong rumors that Park Hopping will be unlikely for a while (again based on leaks from British TAs).

And with clear indications that Disney wants to host future NBA and sports tournaments, we could see similar scenarios where guests are bumped or moved to options that were not their first choice well after they booked. Or, allowed to stay at the resorts, but their experience severely impacted. Don't get me wrong, I am a stockholder, and I am delighted that the NBA will be at Disney. But, I have to be concerned about the long term impact on individual experiences. We stayed at CSR in October 2019 and we loved the resort, but there were inconveniences due to preference given to conventions (for example, bars/restaurants closed to the public so groups/conventions could use the space for private events). That is small potatoes, but you could see the impact if Disney becomes the destination for high-profile tournaments, etc. Great for me as a stockholder. Not so great for me as an individual holding a reservation.

ARGH!!!!

so, it's now almost 1pm on a Wednesday and I don't feel like Disney has upheld their part of the bargain when they said last week AND this week that I would hear something "soon"...

it was a LIE....all LIES...

the "soon" they promised have morphed into the "noos"....

Dear Disney

I use to love you, but due to the recent events regarding information for us guests, and the love for the NBA, I officially only like you now

Please change that.

Thanks

got my SW masks that I ordered back on 4/30 (SW medium) I did the measurement and I feel these are a bit small on my face, but they do have some give, so I'll stretch them out a bit

Yahoo headline "Lakers and Clippers to stay in $263/night rooms" with a photo of the Grand Floridian

Must be a shocker to be in such "cheap" rooms for them.

Don’t forget the new cookie place.

And the Ohana wing recipe.

FWIW, construction hadn't resumed as of last week.

From what I have heard from a lot of people to expect all construction timelines to throw out the window

Did you get a shipping notification for these? I ordered some on the same day, and I'm wondering if they'll just show up in my mailbox...

Original timelines of course. They stopped everything for a few months. Not sure what you’re trying to get at here though.

I got a shipment notification on Monday for mine, due to arrive Friday. I ordered another set as well, but only my Star Wars set has shipped so far.
