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.

We are excited about GG. We were hoping to do it even if there were no characters. It’s an easy restaurant to social distance in.

I just noticed something about POP. The other resorts mention housekeeping, Pop does not .

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.

Liberty Inn is on there, too, and that doesn't even exist anymore (Regal Eagle is also on the list).

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

I’ve been doing a Pop Peasant Happy Dance for 20 minutes.

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.

Just me and husband going to Toppolino's for our July 4 visit, so characters aren't a big deal for this, but to be fair I've wanted to stay at the Riviera and try Toppolino's since last year

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

Bummer though if you had an AoA family suite

I wouldnt get excited just yet, there is no mention of housekeeping at that resort, but it lists it for others

Not all of the other resorts mention housekeeping, either. OKW, BW, Riviera don't have it either.

Maybe that means they are pulling employees from those resorts and doesnt mean they will be open?

Le Parisien reports that on Monday 22nd, we should get an update about Disneyland Paris. And we should go back to 12K guests, that's about 20 - 25% capacity. This goes for both parks.

The CMs noticed it too on the FB comments.

might the callback be restocking of food and that's why housekeeping doesn't have to be recalled so early? they can basically start a week before the resort opens? Or, the have housekeepers from other locations that will fill the role at Pop so the housekeepers at Pop are not getting recalled yet

I personally welcome all other riff raff into the peasantry. Bring your pitchforks, pearls, champagne, fireworks, or whatever else floats your boat

Peasant Party at Petals Pool Bar!

Don’t forget your window decorations!!

If they moved you to Wilderness Lodge at no additional charge then I would say stay at WL.

weren't they already called back?

Interesting that they're calling back Electric Umbrella (who knew there were even still employees there since it's been closed for a bit) but Columbia Harbour House isn't on the list.

Hopefully calling back festival employees means food and wine is still on but could also mean those are the employees temporarily working in the international area.

Wasn’t housekeeping at DVC resorts recalled previously?

Isn't there housekeeping already recalled since they have people coming on June 22?

 

[woody337]

Serious question, what are we gonna do when this is all over??? This has consumed so much of our time for 3 months now.

 

[CastAStone]

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

It's saying soon.

BUT it defines soon as now through 8PM!
