Cruise and Theme Park Operational Updates due to Coronavirus

@yulilin3
we really appriciate all the info you provide and it was great to put a face to a name, seeing you on the podcast with Pete the other day.

Question about MFSR. I'm a solo traveler and have done both single rider line and regular standby at Batuu West. In both I was added to other parties. But what happens now? I'm guessing that single rider line wont be open, so what happens to solo pilots (yep I went there ) on MFSR now? Do I get a pod to myself?

 

[chicagoshannon]

actually makes a lot of sense, and all the stores are closed anyways

Woah I missed that! ALL the stores are closed?

I have a park reservation for Aug. 7 2020. I was hoping to get an idea when I need to check on dining. Thanks!

I guess not a lot of people have read each and every page of the WDW update , here are the links

Epic might open, actors with masks
cleaning pods every 2 hours at MFSR and the whole turntable goes down to clean every pod, that takes about 10 min
2 relaxation zones at DHS one will be Launch Bay
DAS and child swap will still be available
If CMs see someone taking pics without a mask it's ok but they have to ask to put the mask back on after
CM will not be allowed to handle guests phones
They will ask people to not stay in relaxation zones for more than 30 min

Thanks for that! I'm so torn on these indoor no mask zones. On one hand it's nice that there will be A/C but on the other hand it's so much safer to take a mask off outside rather than in! I just don't understand the logic.

Hey guys heads up, I read on a Facebook group that the site used to sign up for AP events has updated and now looks to be getting ready for preview sign ups. Possible sign they’re coming soon. (Sorry if this was already shared)

Its up, GO, GO, GO!

I know theme park ticket holders just saw their open so maybe it will balance out over time as they (at least I hope they do) shift around availability as they get more data points


I agree though, like if it was "day of" and the resort bucket was empty but non-resort theme park ticket holder had capacity and could go when I couldn't b/c I was on property I would be a bit anmoyed

Yeah, but I'm not so sure that's going to happen. Right now a lot of the July people still haven't made a final decision on if they're going or not. There's still plenty of time for Disney to shift the buckets. They could still dump all of the day guest bucket into the resort guest bucket the day or the week before and combine buckets for the AP/Resort Guests on the actual day.

I think the reason why we're seeing availability the way it is right now is that all of the people with a resort stay are just booking for their entire stay without really knowing if they're going or not. The first week is probably going to have the lowest capacity, so there is some yellow for resort guests right now. However, that opens up in the second week with all green for all days. APs want to go so they're just booking days. Weekends are the most popular, so those are going first. Then you have the day guests with the smallest bucket and they're probably the least likely to go and the least likely to be paying super close attention. I would also suspect that day guests typically don't buy tickets until closer to when they're planing on going or even the day they get to the parks.

Right now it's all in flux and there's really no need to panic right now. I think it will all level itself out when they open like we've seen at other parks.

in the Batuu marketplace, yeah

Man... I hope they put the Toydarian toys somewhere. I need that Yoda plush.

 

[Rxdr2013]

[yulilin3]

I think the logic is giving people somewhere indoors with AC to take a mask off in and cool off. They're probably worried about people overheating when they're wearing masks in the hottest part of the year in Florida.

Is this news? I’ve missed the last few pages

Make sense to me, the last thing they need is a bunch of people getting heat stroke. If people don’t feel safe, they can stay outside or just don’t go.

No warning for AP preview registration, or email! Thank goodness for this site!

 

[chicagoshannon]

Good luck everyone! Looks like I was right about the no warning. lol

Any chance Savis will open?

Never mind so sorry just saw the links you shared!!

If they can safely open restaurants, they should be safely able to open indoor mask relief zones. If it isn’t safe to run these indoor mask zones, they shouldn’t even be opening IMO, because that means the indoor TS and QS are risky as well (and that’s most of their food locations).

 

[WonderlandisReality]

I wonder if there will be a warning for ADRs?

 

[cakebaker]

They are accepting vouchers.
