So what attractions does everyone think have the highest likelihood of being closed?

Anything that might wet/soak your face mask 🙁

Splash Mtn
Kali Rapids
PoC

Any “high touch” rides
Soarin (because of the way people grab the handles & hold it - no way to sanitize often enough - unless they alternate theatres using one at a time..
Toy Story Mania & Buzz very “hands on” with quick load on/load off

Rides with grab bars/lap bars are easier to wipe down quickly

Queues are going to be marked either on the floor or on the hand rails in the queue so np for social distancing

edit - to correct harness to handle

In Shanghai they gave all their guests disposable gloves to go on Buzz. At the end if the ride they were discarded. They could do that at WDW, too

Guys, is no hopping rumor or news? I’ve read so much on here today I’ve lost track! Trying to share info with my DD30z

ehh they have kept Pirates open in ShangHai... not sure I agree more likely to agree with Kali Rapids
 
Curious why everyone says Splash, but not Pirates or Its a Small World. They are all a "similar" ride vehicle. Am I missing something?

getting masks wet. You don’t need to put stuff in a ziplock bag on pirates.

so rides where you get wet are an issue while masks are required.
 
Which is why I don't think AP will be/should be counted during this time.

Completely agree. Mine expires the end of November (or would have before all this) but Depending how long the limited experiences last and what they involve, I‘m not sure I want to go back for a while.

Not a local, so actual park (and hopping) access and dining options are HUGE factors for determining our willingness to book flights and return. 😁

I’d be shocked if they didn’t take all that into consideration.

Ah, gotcha! Guess that makes sense. Though I think I'll be surprised if they close headliner attractions without finding an alternative.... Maybe handing out disposable masks? Maybe keeping rafts to a singular family and allowing masks to be removed? Just talking out loud....
 
Not a ride per se but some of the interactive areas after rides like mission space and figment and test track I could see closed.

We were watching home movies from a past trip with my kids sitting in the Chevrolet cars, I think those may be locked for the time being.
