Cruise and Theme Park Operational Updates due to Coronavirus

[SwirlTheCitrus]

Yeah, they can't officially announce a date until the sign off, but we would know the details prior to the Governor's signature. Hopefully we hear something this week.

I feel like I am missing something-- where *in that does it say Disney will be involved? I SO want it to be true, tell me!

It doesn't say Disney. It could be SeaWorld presenting on Friday. It would make sense as they have said they want to open in June.

Reference to the rumor that Disney will announce something EOB Friday. Universal couldn't officially announce their opening date on their website until after they had the signature, but we found out the details prior at the Task Force meeting. Hopefully that will happen with Disney tomorrow.

That’s the times for Orange County press conference not the Task Force meetings.

Ugh, ok. I really am confused lol!

But what was the indication..
Maybe a wink & a nod ... “nudge nudge”... lol.

The Mayor always seems overwhelmed and a bit behind the info.

say no more, say no more, know what I mean?

so I guess the question is, Is Disney a goer?

As long as it's not the Spanish Inquisition...

Well yes, they sometimes go.

I feel like that was what the Fun Spot Management was going for

"No one expects us to reopen today!!!"

Interesting bit of info (which of course everyone should take with a MAJOR grain of salt), I spoke with a resort CM this morning to try and switch up my August reservations and she did mention there was an increase in rumblings amongst resort CMs today but her friends that work in the parks have not had that same increase. So maybe the resorts are finally starting to get a little active? Again, as we all know, this is just a phone CM talking, but I thought it was interesting since it was just a general statement of observation from a CM.

Lol...for the NBA...

Can you clarify what you mean by "rumblings"? The CM you spoke with on the phone does not work in a resort.

My understanding is she was “on call” for the resort phone-line during times of high volume calls, the example she gave is she usually works the reservation line when there is a hurricane forecasted for the Orlando area. Who knows? I was surprised to even speak with someone in Florida let alone someone indicating he or she usually has feet on WDW property during her daily job.
As for clarifying “rumblings” I can’t do that, as that is the word she used and I wasn’t going to ask anymore about it since that was not the purpose of my call and I honestly take everything they say as just more rumors. It was just a note she made when we were discussing the walkways to MK. But since this is the rumors thread, I thought I would share.

Wait I'm confused, where did this Disney-announcing-on-Friday rumor start from?

 

[ScubaCat]

So is this today, instead of tomorrow's meeting? Now I am confused lol....

There was no meeting on Monday for the holiday, so they moved Wednesday to Tuesday just for this week.

Edit: that's wrong, just Monday was skipped for the holiday. I misread that cryptic statement, myself.

Someone over in the WDWMagic forum.

Where did the rumor come from that certain Disney food and beverage and hospitality workers had been called back? I read that somewhere and I can’t find it now. I don’t think we’d see a schedule until they are called back first.

I believe that was a WDWMagic forum post as well.
