Cruise and Theme Park Operational Updates due to Coronavirus

Who thinks Disney may have already submitted their plan? I for one think it's already in the governors hands, but he will wait until next week to say anything. Even though it was "slow" I appreciate Governor DeSantis walking through his decision making.

And an opening date must be included with plan!

The governor said that was part of the requirement? Makes sense.

I suspect it's ready to go in but not "submitted" if he wasn't officially taking them yet...

Yes, and he was very adamant about it.

 

[gottalovepluto]

How long do we think before submitted dates leak?

 

[Krandor]

One caveat to note with amusement and theme parks, Desantis said they will need to include a date they plan to reopen with their plans.

Ah ha.. so desantis has a disney vacation lined up and also wants to know if it's going to happen.

I don’t know what I want for dinner tonight let alone 2, or 8 weeks from now. Peoples minds change. When that survey was asked, I’m sure people that at that point said they don’t want the economy open for 8+ weeks have since changed their mind

How can you possible be “sure” that other people have changed their minds? Consumer confidence is low. A majority of the country thinks the opening is being rushed in certain areas. I don’t know if they are correct. We shall aee

Hopefully Disney will add security to enforce the mandatory mask policy. There will be a lot of ugly scenes and the CMs can't do all the enforcement themselves.

You'll hear plenty of exchanges along the lines of "Sir/ma'am, you have to wear a mask." "Yeah? Make me."

Look at some videos of CityWalk. Some of the guys doing enforcement look like bouncers. I think that's the way to go!

I hope plan is VERY detailed and describes all resorts, parks, restaurants, pools, waterparks, transportation, character meets, fireworks, parades... what am I missing? Lol.

I’m not sure if it’s a majority or not. But there is definitely polarity like everything else these days.

Consumer spending was way down last month. I’m hoping things start to get back to normal soon.

DeSantis just said he's open to theme parks submitting their plans and working with their local government for reopening!

Maybe this is what Disney has been waiting on. They had to cancel 6-1 but are going to get open by 6/8?

 

[Laurabearz]

Ans just to add OC Mayor has been getting a lot of request to reopen the theme parks, big and small, he's been diverting the decision to the Gov, so now it's basically on Mayor Demmings hands

This is how they pass the buck...

My hope is, now that the minimum capacity has been raised, Disney may feel its worth opening up their dining and retail at DS.

 

[LSUmiss]

And an opening date must be included with plan!

Now that’s HUGE! Surely that’ll get leaked!

hope so!

 

[SierraT]

So the Universal resorts are taking reservations June 1, wonder if that will move a week.

DS is opening on May 27th or earlier, CM already being recalled

ill use David from Fresh Baked as an example. He said in April no way, no how would he be caught dead at a Disney park before there was a vaccine. Now he’s saying that he’s accepted that the virus will be lingering for a long time and he’s ready to be in the parks again as soon as they open.

People are starting to get over the fear of death that was welded into their minds as if it were a guarantee. You hear all of the stories about people dying or being in the ICU, but rarely hear any recovery stories. With more tests, come more positive cases pushing down the odds of fatality. Not to mention with every passing day more people are realizing a vaccine is a pipe dream

Yeah I doubt Disney is like uh let’s see. Can we get someone to draw up something real quick.

unrelated but he is my favorite youtuber from Anaheim

Yeah they won’t open until they have movies to show.

I would go to see old movies! I miss going to "the show" so much more than hair and nail salons being open but those are both a close second.
