My iphone 6S battery is never going to survive a full day in disney world with all this mobile everything. It's been nice not to have to carry a battery thing with me but I really don't see how I'll get around it right now.

My refund came!!!!!

And as an added bonus, I’m pretty sure it’s the correct amount.

It's an October miracle!

Preach lol.

Enough is enough. There’s literally a blueprint of how well Disney is doing with parks operations in FLORIDA. The state that has become, an unfair amount at times imo, the sole butt of the “joke” when it comes to how protocols have been treated for covid. If Disney can go almost 3 months without an outbreak, reported or not, in Florida, then how can you have an argument that they can’t do the same or even better in a stricter state like California?

I think, FL shows that Disney can open with limited crowds, so CA should allow Disney to reopen given the COVID situation looks better there.

However, Anaheim is a different environment. And more locals go to DL, so these differences need to be taken into consideration.

The FL model can’t be used without some tweaks given that the parks are more compressed in CA than FL to.

I googled and nothing came up. I’ve been once with DD and loved it. I would love to take my son in March if it’s open.

Credit card, APs purchased direct from Disney. Refund back to the same card.

I did the same thing -

We do it every trip - it's DH's fave thing to do aside from pretending not to hear me when I say "oh i haven't seen that Loungefly before"....

This is one, like Minnie Vans, I feel I don’t even need to see confirmation to know it’s true. I don’t see singing + eating returning to WDW until COVID is done.

Cue another item joining the “I hope it comes back someday” list

I like to see individual cities/local government step up when they can. Our Mayor did too. It may not make a huge difference, but it's something.

definitely good to see - though sort of have to as a government if you aren't going to let businesses open/be super restrictive

Like people need money to survive and they can either get it from a job or the government - one of those two has to be available to them

with what they charge for it that has to cover it's expenses so I feel like that could come back - though likely not for a while.

I would think it would be safer at DL since it is mostly locals. WDW has guests from all over the country where their states may be having a surge. FYI Florida positivity rate was 3.77 today with 70,000+ tests. First time in a long time were back in the 3’s. As you say, with some tweaks DL should be able to reopen safely.

This is probably naive of me but I truly don't understand why amusement parks in California are still being forced to be closed. I know a lot of television shows and movie productions have resumed and that to me is just as big of a risk as going to Disneyland. At least at a park, you can wear a mask.

 

[Mit88]

If it’s TRULY about coming to a safer, more effective way to reopen the parks, fine. But it’s getting a little tiring that this has continuously become a measuring contest. We criticize Disney execs for restarting their salaries, but Newsom has been collecting his the entire time after lying and saying he wasn’t. Sit down and come to an agreement that has people going back to work while being as safe as possible enough to do so.

What they need to do is replace all of the pathways in the parks and at the springs with Qi charging pads that the power runs through your body and to your phone, watch, tablet, etc and charges them while you’re walking around. Worry about the future health ramifications later
