Cruise and Theme Park Operational Updates due to Coronavirus

[Princess Merida]

If the GF marina is closed off, does that mean no resort launch available when the parks open? Or will it just go between MK and Poly?

I've been curious about that in general because those boats are on the small side and social distancing seems difficult if not impossible, but at the same time they're open air so better than being in an enclosed monorail car.

Yes I thought about this also. Fencing has marina all the way to near the beaches pool blocked off. I’m at the pool now and can see the fencing being installed all the way to the beach. CM said movies in the evening have been moved to grass area in front of villas instead of beach due to fencing.

“Do the right thing” is very subjective. You’re assuming they arent doing the right thing by having approved safety measures in place, while also providing people with an income. As Pete said in his video yesterday, he hasn’t seen anyone so happy to be at work than CMs working at the Disney resorts right now.

So while you may think shutting everything down is doing the right thing, that doesnt mean that what you’re suggesting is “right” to anyone other than you

True. And this is what Remy kept emphasizing before he went MIA. That Disney was creating a plan to open while the virus was still active so that they wouldn’t have to shut down if there was a flare up. Obviously, I think the thought was that it would die down by July and the potential flare up was in the fall but still doesn’t change the logic.

They should do what is being done here in Canada. If you don't quarantine you can be fined up to $750,000. As far as Disney goes, if cases still keep rising I would hope they delay opening.

Im pretty sure this is not everywhere or for very select circumstances? There was someone here last week I think who broke it after traveling and was positive, and I think in a conference when asked if he would be fined they said something along the lines of preferring to educate him instead . Not even fined $7.50 never mind $750,000.

Maybe it is my sarcastic nature (I know I know you’re all surprised) but Carlye’s tweet reads sarcastic to me not legit excitement.

The only real piece of the puzzle missing right now for opening and planning is ADRs right? What kind of bomb could she be hinting at?

But at the same time, are we really ready to know? Maybe we'll get to 2000 this month after all.

That was my impression too. I dont really follow her, so I dont know how sarcastic she is but I read it as

“Oh...yay. I cant wait wait to relay this news to this fanbase that loves to complain about everything”

What news could she possibly have that she could be excited about telling people right now?

You are probably right. I came to that conclusion as the time ticked by. Tweeting that then going silent isn’t good.

When she is excited she is EXCITED!!!! Bouncing around Instagram stories kind of excited, not the vibe given with that tweet. I hope I’m interpreting totally wrong and this isn’t something bad

 

[Mit88]

And she kind of wrote the tweet and ran away. Not responding to anyone whether or not its good or bad. That to me reads like a sarcastic tweet of news that people dont want to hear. So its probably that the parks WILL open as planned since people seem to be very mad that WDW hasn’t delayed the opening yet

If it was bad bad, and the blogger/vloggers were already getting wind of it I bet it would have leaked. It's been hours since she made that post and secrets don't last very long in the Disney gossip world once people know. So if it is bad I'm thinking minorly bad, not like, OMG THE PARKS ARE NOT OPENING bad.

Yeah I mainly follow her on Instagram. I had to remove Twitter from my phone to save my sanity, so I wasn’t paying attention. Lol

lol funny you say that! I just mentioned it was like Facebook in there then I ducked out of that one. I’m done.

Did we hear a rumor a few pages back that 2020 tickets might open tomorrow?

Yes although it was just 1 phone CM. Officially we’ve been told tomorrow is just 2021 sales.

I am hoping it is an answer on Jambogate and the on again off again opening.

I have friends in entertainment and most of them are against reopening, I understand their point of view, in shows like FotLK and FNtM, they are in close proximity to each other, singing and dancing
I was able to see a technical rehearsal of the new Bourne Stuntacular show at Universal and the actors all had to wear masks and only had them off when they were dubbing the lines, but all the stunt actors and the regular actors when they were speaking they had masks. It would be very strange to see these shows at Disney like that

But the monkeys in the lion king show with monkey face masks on! That would be a sight to see.

Disboards “just for fun” Community Boards

I don't remember who it was, but someone here compared the community board to the 4th floor in Parks & Recreation. That is one of the truest statements ever written on the Dis. That place scares me.

Whaaaat? So they are blocking off the beach area from DVC guests?

Well that’s going to make for a lovely picture as we lounge by the only pool we have access to. Uggggh
