Goodness, I feel like I'm the only one NOT surprised by the Grand Floridian. These are multimillionaires who probably have only stayed in the GF when they've visited. I doubt they would have happily moved to CSR. I was more surprised to see it not on the original lists. It also has the smallest number of DVC rooms. GF seemed like a no brainer for a deluxe property.

I'm more puzzled by Yacht Club since there isn't really any way to create a decent "bubble" there.

I feel like there is. It’s just a couple walkways and the entrance out towards the dock they’ll have to put security on isn’t it?

 

[Farro]

Maybe they will open Pop or AoA sooner now that we know they aren't in use for the NBA?

 

[Anna_Sh]

Sigh, this makes things difficult, but needed.

People sneeze, and cough, and have running noses everyday, based on the 100,000 things that aren't Covid. Got a headache? Watch out

I sure hope that when someone is at the park, and they hear a cough, or a sneeze, they don't freak out on the person

Yeah, everyone will need to make sure they have plenty of their seasonal allergy medication

when I checked earlier there was a lot of studio availability but not for Copper Creek. I know for sure BWV garden view studio was open.

For those dates?

GF has a big convention center that can be turned into dining for the players

 

[cakebaker]

I guess they will all eat in the conference centers? Because I can't imagine them eating in their rooms everyday, it's not prison.

They can eat their specially prepared meals in the closed to public restaurants, that's what I'm saying.

I don't know, we'll see.

I’m sure they’ll have something nice set up for their dining, not to worry.

It will be like the old Miss Universe pageants where they would show the contestants touring the local attractions and having such a great time? Except it will be with NBA players frolicking at Disney!

They are getting stock footage of property this week

 

[kelly7adria]

So the NBA is at GD tower. What about the rest of the resort? I assume CSR will be closed.

Call me pessimistic, but with the NBA taking up 3 resorts, MLS at Swan/Dolphin and only DVC resorts announced to be open......I’m expecting MASS cancellations

That makes more sense than all in room dining!

 

[Krandor]

That’s annoying. Two more deluxes out of the reopening mix. Assuming they were planning to reopen the deluxes attached to DVC, as has been rumored, but not other properties, the number of rooms just dwindled.

We don't know what they were planning. Only what the rumors were.

Based on this it looks like rumors were wrong Or something changed during NBA negotiations.

 

[SaintsManiac]

Sad how angry people still are over this. Anything to stop the bleeding should be good news.

 

[jenjersnap]

Anyone DVC able to check availability of a studio or 1 bedroom from Aug 6-10? Currently at BCV and so upset about this announcement. No way SAB opens ..... I’m furious.

All have at least one category of studio and 1 BR: JAMBO, Kidani, OKW, SSR, BLT, BWV. Poly studio. CC and BRV only have 1 BRs. This is for those dates.

 

[Krandor]

Exactly. They could take some space, bring in furtniture and stuff and make a very nice private dining room for the players with private chef, open bar, the works.

All three have convention space which is why they are being used. Things will be set up in those spaces for players, training facilities, and much more.

I feel like my home is being overrun by sports teams who don’t even care about the magic of Disney. Makes it feel less Disney. Not a good feeling. Disney guests have a bond with eachother with that special feeling. Probably just overthinking it

Disney needs the money I guess so it is what it is

Magic will always be second to money. Mickey needs his cheese.

 

[Farro]

I'm not worried, just imagining how I would do it. They didn't ask me though...

And I would expect them to have the best because they would be expecting the best.

Did we really think they would stay at All-Stars?

 

[shoegal9]

I did say may. I don’t have the least bit of knowledge about bb playoffs, don’t care to know. I just know they could play into October.

I hear ya. I hate basketball and would like nothing more for them to not show up at all. Regular season ends the 16th Of August , First round 8/16-8/30, conference semi finals 8/30-9/13, conference finals 9/15-9/28, and finals 9/30 - 10/13. So, by 9/15 at the latest there would be only 4 teams left.

Bay Lake, AK (both Jambo & Kidani), OKW, Poly, SSR for studios.
