Cruise and Theme Park Operational Updates due to Coronavirus

[Jrb1979]

But you admit that going to Disney world regardless of the measures, there would be an understanding that you are taking on some element of risk, correct?

Yes there is some risk but I should expect the same risk as when going to get groceries.

People seem to be putting a lot of stock into the "Guidelines" Disney will put into place in order to Re-Open. "Guidelines" are very different than "Requirements". People will do whatever they want once they are in the Parks....and Disney will let them. Disney has a policy of being Non-Confrontational with their Guests. They will NOT eject people for refusing to comply with Social Distancing "Guidelines" aka suggestions.

that may change. Guests don’t have a right to do whatever they want, especially if it puts other people’s health at risk

So what exactly happens at the airport now if you come from a “hotspot” as deemed by the state of Fl?

NOTHING if they can possibly get away with it! Without the tourists...Florida's economy is in big trouble. Everything hinges on keeping people coming to Florida at all costs.

14 day quarentine, right?

They will drop that when Disney re-opens.

The same as before . You fill out a questionnaire with your home address, your Orlando address, if your'e here as a visitor or live here.
Then you're handed the paper telling you to self isolate for 14 days. You're are asked to go straight from the airport to where your staying

Doubtful...

This virus isn't just going to disappear. Social distancing is going to be in place for awhile.

Then what’s the point of opening? They’re not going to make enough money from locals to make it worth opening. And you’re not going to get people to spend $500 a night at a Disney hotel and not be able to leave the room because you’re in forced quarantine.

That would be impossible.

Going to a grocery store you have different risks than going to Walt Disney World.

Going to Walt Disney World in July you have a potential for heat stroke if you stay in the parks for the entire day.

Going to a Publix in Orlando, the odds of heat stroke is almost nil.

You do realize that they said "hotspots," right?

NY, NJ, CT, LA

The point of reopening is to make those losses smaller. You may not make a profit right away but you aren't losing as much.

So it means you have to stay in FL for 14 days to self isolate or can you leave & go back home? Also, I’m guessing we’ll see, but if you say your fl address will be wdw that won’t work b/c they’ll know your not going to isolate?

The only people from out of the state of Florida that the state of Florida is strongly encouraging to self-quarantine is are from New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut.

I know this may be hard to believe for New Yorkers, but Florida does get visitors from other states.

So if you are from a state not on the hotspot list you don't have to quarantine?

Is there any oversight on making sure that really happens once you leave the airport? How do they handle that if you are driving from another state?

No, you don’t. I’m actually at more risk going to Florida- their spread is many times larger than here. And everyone should remember, the restrictions are in place for this phase. We won’t be in phase 1 when they open and they could lift that ban in a subsequent phase.

 

[LSUmiss]

Doubtful...

Why? It’s mostly ridiculous right now anyway.

Sure, but they also get a lot of visitors from out of the country, which definitely wont be lifted any time soon
