if he doesn’t lift the restrictions for the tri state area, you’ll see a lot of people like myself driving to a non restricted state and fly down. I’ve already booked my flight out of Maryland just in case.
He needs to update his data too. We are no longer even considered hotspots. There are other areas that are now that aren’t even on his list. It’s just absolutely absurd. I know a lot of ppl irl here who are about to write off the whole state of FL & spend their money elsewhere.
 
Are all of your ADRs and FPs gone? Or just for the days that the schedule was wiped (through the 13)? I have a split stay with a June 13 arrival and I got the cancellation email, but this reservation was only through the 15th. The second part of my stay is the 15th-29th. My fastpasses and ADRs for the 13th were wiped, but everything from the 14th onward is still there.
Only ADR and FP for 7-13 were wiped, as that is the week that was just cancelled. Next week, depending on what happens with Disney's proposal on reopening, your 14-29 may be fine :)

Our governor lifted the travel restrictions and mandatory self-quarantining for 14 days today from other states. 👍

Not surprising since he made such a rash decision on the quarantine mandate in the first place. I get the premise of the restrictions, but after you make it up, maybe take a week, look at a map and you’ll realize NY is a pretty big state with areas that have had cases in the 100s, not 1000s or 10,000s. And I feel like Louisiana hasn’t been a hotspot for over a month. Why wasnt Illinois, or Washington state hit with a mandatory quarantine when traveling to Florida?

On npr I read the new hotspots are DC & Chicago area & the nyc tri-state area has made remarkable progress. And Nola peaked in like mid April.

Then we might be going to TX! It doesn’t help that they did a news story on the local news about how FL still has us on their list so ppl here are fired up about that.
Texas just lifted travel restrictions today and we are now in phase 2. FL is a little behind us. I'm sure travel restrictions will lift in FL soon.

Makes sense. My county has 842 confirmed cases and we peaked almost a month ago. CT is already in Phase One of reopening and is set to move to Phase Two by June 20th.

Now I’m waiting to see if the quarantine orders are extended again, as they were the last two times they were nearing expiration. It’s definitely bothersome to see certain states targeted as hot spots while others that are actually hotspots have no quarantine sanctions.
 
Eventually it's not about greed, but survival. They are hemorrhaging cash like mad. Shareholders aren't going to play the cautious game for very long. Eventually they will be asking, "Umm..Why is Universal open and not us?"

A few weeks/month won’t be life or death and will cost them less than opening prematurely and having to close again.

I just hope for good news for @yulilin3’s family with more CMs getting their schedules this weekend.

of course it will probably be last minute instead

Me too!! Did CMs get called back other than Disney Springs?!

I guess they don’t care, but ppl who have flights booked & other nonrefundable things that got cancelled by Disney might end up at UO now & maybe permanently. For a company who used to try every trick in the book to keep you on property so you don’t wander off to their competitors, it seems like a bad move to let UO open way earlier (if that’s the case).
We are going because our flight hasn’t been canceled even though Disney resort was. Looking for something to do.... hmmm...

Lots of options, universal obviously along with volcano bay. Sea life and madame tussauds are great places to visit cause they're indoors and next to each other and you can get a picture with Walt Disney :) by June the icon should be open as well
 
And just keep in mind there may not be an announcement next week. The Mayor said he’s gotten indications Disney may present their plan then, not that they’re on the agenda already or anything like that.

Louder for everyone who saw that tweet and now assumes Disney is most definitely presenting next week. There are potentially many miles distance between "may present" and "will present"... Hopefully they do, but I sure wouldn't be getting my hopes up too high.

correct. but we also know there is no way in HECK that WDW is going to sit there and watch Universal and others take their revenue for any sort of extended time period. 2-3 weeks maybe...but a month or more...highly doubt.
 
What state are you in?

I’m in Texas. Our governor lifted the ban on travel from Louisiana a few weeks back, but he kept the others via air travel. They had checkpoints set up on the roads and the airports. He lifted the ban on flights from the NY Tri-State area, Miami, California, Detroit, Washington and anywhere else that was a part of it that I’m forgetting.
