Cruise and Theme Park Operational Updates due to Coronavirus

Interesting about garden grill & Chef Mickey. So I guess they’ll do some version of character dining.

This seems like an easy one to add some character parades too, distanced photos etc... especially since the meal is already family style

Every single thing I'm "fired up" about has actually happened. Every...single...one. If Disney would give me something to be positive about, I'd love to be positive. So far, nothing. Being negative about negatives is not a problem.

Mob mentality want you to be happy because they’re happy. Not allowed to talk about rumors on a rumor board, real news only. And if you dont like that real news, then you’re wrong

Topolino's is a test for this new "temporary" (as long social distancing is still a thing) "modified Character Dining." If there is enough demand (which based on today's reservations, it seems like there still is, even after a price increase) and there aren't any huge safety/health issues, this type of experience should be rolled out to several other Character Dining restaurants.

I think it's more than speculation at this point, they would not be recalling cast if they weren't preparing to open, unless there's some other sport that wants to come and stay at Pop

No way

Happy to see a Value on there, and the one with Skyliner access no less (Disney can put all Value folks there and clock it as an upgrade imho...)

Now will all mod be put at CSR? This bubble is a lot more fluid than I thought if they can run GF for both guests & NBA maybe they’ll operate old CSR for mod folks using old checkin and bus areas and GDT will be for the NBA?

ETA: NVM. With only the Barcelona Lounge opening that doesn’t work

Maybe I'll get moved to Pop

I’m guessing anyone with a value will be moved to pop. That’s actually a huge upgrade if the skyliner is running.

 

[Perdita&Pongo]

No ‘Ohana.

This was their yesterday interaction.. makes me wonder if we’ll hear something today.

 

[JBeaty0507]

So glad that us Pop peasants will have somewhere to go!!!

Hopefully they put that bread pudding on the Kona menu officially.

Is this saying what I think/hope it’s saying?

Does anyone else feel just a huge sense of relief right now? Maybe just my fellow #popcenturypeasants ?
I feel like a weight has been lifted

Side note I have never been more concerned about the seriousness of my Disney problem than in the last few weeks This is clearly an addict situation.

Most interesting thing:

Electric umbrella and fountain view are both being rebuilt apparently. I'm hoping that this isn't just a "where the cast members came from" list.

July 16

That's great you were able to modify, but I have tried and been told no multiple times. I wish they would be consistent!

Anyone hear if reservations past the July 11th check out date can modify yet?! My trip is less than 3 weeks away now.

WAIT WAIT WAIT WAIT

"**Epcot**
Coral Reef
Electric Umbrella
Festivals"

Nice catch.

I never thought the festivals would be cancelled. They make too much money. I am sure there will be tons of new changes but I think F&W and Festival of the holidays WILL happen

Could Fountain View just mean employees for that new Starbucks they built?

Electric Umbrella is an odd one.

But how will Pop people ever deal with all us Riff Raff from the other values? And OMG what if some Moderate Riff Raff are placed at Pop?!!!!

It was humid and slightly rainy this morning and I wore my rain coat that is usually a Disney one, and I swear it smelled like Disney outside. I’m not gonna judge you .

I’m a bit relieved that it appears we have more time to decide what to do with APs! The extensions had me panic calling.

I think they're going to write how much you paid per night on your forehead so that other guests in the parks know how much you paid for your room so they can act accordingly
