Cruise and Theme Park Operational Updates due to Coronavirus

[midnight star]

Gustin pointing out CSR looks like next to fall this year.

I’m not even bothering to waste my time and call Disney about Poly. If I lose CSR part of my split stay I’ll cancel the whole thing at once.

Wait so CSR won't be open after the NBA leaves

As far as the poly refurb - prior to everything shutting down they had already begun some work on the rooms. I follow Tikkiman Fan on facebook and "someone" was "leaking" pictures of redone carpeting and flooring, hallways and walls, doors etc. - they quardoned off a section of one of the long houses and began refurbishments. I believe they're just going to go ahead and wrap that up (in the non-dvc buildings). It makes sense.

Now - we have a split stay Thanksgiving week, Copper Creek and then 3 nights at the Poly (in a dvc room) - should we keep that or should we try for somewhere else? Thoughts? We love the pools, and the food (even what's open now, although it's limited). But we've got park days (Epcot and HS) - is it worth it? I'm on a waitlist for Riviera studio - but I'm thinking maybe we should bounce because now I'm nervous about constructions sights and sounds.

If you can find something in the boardwalk area for the days you are at EP and HS, I would definitely do that. Especially if you are trying to get to HS before rope-drop for RotR. It was so nice staying at BWV and being able to walk there in the morning.

The decision to go all in on DVC years ago and expand it the way they did must really be paying off right about now. Would be really curious to know how many resort guests are not AP or DVC.

We don't think they'll close the already opened restaurants at the Poly, along with the monorail in October, right? That's totally illogical...right???

I would say it depends how much needs to be closed due to GCH refurbs and what’s going on in there, when it comes to specific restaurants not just food access.

I wish whatever news is supposed to come from the Disney Parks News would go ahead and drop, I've got chores to do!

Captain cook has the advantage to have 2 doors that lead outside, easy to close the restaurant so people can only come in and out from the outside. Kona I's a different issue
