Cruise and Theme Park Operational Updates due to Coronavirus

[JBeaty0507]

What phone number did you call? All the numbers I've tried are busy... :-(

407-939-1936. It took me 4 tries back to back to get through initially, but then only about 20 minutes on hold. I’ve read where other people on the board this morning spent at least an hour and a half on hold though.

AIDA (owned by Carnival Corporation) is to begin sailings next month on 3 ships. Looks like there will be no stopping at transit ports.

SDMT at 15 minutes. Everything else 10 minutes or less.

If APs act more like typical guests the new touring plan is leave FOP for a little bit after park opening and the initial crowds resolve, down to 15 minutes, 90 minutes after opening.

I’m doing what everyone advises agains—split stay starting with deluxe and moving to value. We’re there tomorrow through 7/19. I can’t justify deluxe for the entirety of this trip and am looking for convenience to the parks. I was sitting on Pop for 7/11-7/15 (when we’d be visiting MK and AK) and a price-protected CR TP View from 7/15-7/19 (when we’d be visiting HS and EP) which was opposite for purposes of transportation convenience. I needed to add on 7/10 to align with our flight. With the AP discount I came out pretty good on prices. I canceled my offsite stay for tomorrow and think I’ll now cancel the car rental I have for the first half of the stay. One bummer is that it’s too late to add ME for our arrival tomorrow.

They must have decided it was too much of a hassle, but had already sent out luggage tags for everyone arriving before the 16th. Glad we are arriving the 13th!

Can someone answer this for me...if I am staying at a Disney resort monday and Tuesday night, can I reserve Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday in the park Under a resort stay? We will go home Wednesday nite, we already have our three days for annual passes booked for another stay.

Yes

Very interesting that they backed off of that. Or its a new typo.

Finally able to make my 3 days of AP Park Reservations beyond my Resort Reservations.

Thanks for that! I was finally able to make my 3 days for April.

be interesting to see if that trend holds for other big time attractions - specifically thinking of Rise of the Resistance once DHS opens

Thank you board for posting about the 40% Passholders discount. Took less than 10 minutes (and about 20 tries for open line) to get someone to switch me from the 25% sun fun to to 40% Passholders For my 7/18 trip. Now even more excited to go!!

That would be a massive typo since the following paragraph talks about guests being responsible for their own baggage.

BTW - seems few reports on Twitter and Facebook that they have already turned people away wearing gaiters so they seem to be enforcing that

I can confirm this. 2 people infront of me at AK were turned away and made to go get actual masks. One of them was just a jerk about it to the CM. The other was fine.

That is amazing. The pun on the end really sealed the deal.
