Cruise and Theme Park Operational Updates due to Coronavirus

[SaintsManiac]

But no news today makes tomorrow even more likely so maybe it is better not to get news today...

At Universal (oops ) the TM wipes the bucket with wipes and hand sanitizer before holding it and refilling it. This is for a refillable cup. They could do the same for popcorn buckets at Disney

Yes, but Disney will make you reserve a popcorn refill time in advance

I'm surprised so many are excited for Electronic Umbrella opening. I thought the food was on the same level as Cosmic Rays?

Is it weird that Pop is the only one that doesn't seem to be recalling Housekeeping? Unless that is covered under "everything Pop?"

I have a Pop reservation in August, but I would like it to be clean!

Then why is there a mob going after people that have opinions on rumors telling them to wait for official news? If we’re not allowed to have an opinion on rumors that aren’t shared by everyone, then whats the point of having the rumor thread? We’re only allowed to talk about the rumors if they have a positive outcome?

1. As always we have a report feature if you feel something needs to be looked at. With the speed of this thread lately I certainly can’t see everything.
2. Rumors are welcome and encouraged however I for one am not a fan of my cousins father’s uncle’s college roommate heard X.
3. Opinions being allowed are why this thread is so large and still open. If opinions weren’t allowed this entire website wouldn’t exist.
4. I’ve seen plenty of negative talk and people worried about different things.

Come on now. Cosmic Rays has Sunny Eclipse! I miss him!

What are the prime fresh popcorn times of the day so I know what time I need to try and reserve?

Everything Pop is the merchandise shop and food court area I believe.

I am not familiar but maybe the housekeeping for Pop is under a different union? It would make no sense to open food and beverage and merch at Pop without guests.

Back in January 2019, the cast member would give us our refills in a paper cup instead of putting it directly in the popcorn bucket. I'd expect that they'll do something like this.

See, I see it as :
You presented an opinion.
Others presented their opinion also, which differs from yours.
You decided there was a mob mentality trying to squash negative opinions.
They're all just opinions. No one attacked you.

In my case it's more surprise than excitement. I'd never go there with all the options around World Showcase along with Sunshine Seasons.

Pandemics make people desperate!!

I honestly think housekeeping will be filled (if it hasn't already) FT CM from other locations.

Not the same as popcorn, but the BoG CMs are getting calls now and they were told their restaurant is turning to TS. I wonder if it’s because of the self-serve drinks during Breakfast and lunch?

 

[kylenne]

Serious question, what are we gonna do when this is all over??? This has consumed so much of our time for 3 months now.

Put on some shorts then eat a Mickey pretzel in front of a crying kid like the Childless Millennial(tm) I am.

Come on now. Cosmic Rays has Sunny Eclipse! I miss him!

When my daughter was about 2, we were eating there. She would clap every so often. We finally realized she was clapping for Sonny when he finished a song. It was the best!

Sad to see Tusker House is not in the list for Animal Kingdom. Not surprised since it’s buffet but i was holding out hope that they may come up with a table service option.

It could also be the touchscreens that you order on for lunch. I'm not sure if they use those for breakfast as well or not since we've never eaten breakfast there.

People going around telling others how they’re supposed to feel is a little ridiculous. I’m speaking in defense of people that have had multiple planned trips cancelled. But they’re being told they need to be as happy as someone that hasn’t had a negative impact from the closure effecting their Disney trip and they shouldn’t have a negative opinion of rumors like park hopping being taken away because its not “official” yet.

Yes, theres a blocking feature, but if I blocked everyone that I disagreed with based on one topic, then it cancels out the potential of having a civil and informative conversation with that same person about another topic.

I saw this is what is happening with the resort mugs at Vero Beach. They give you your refill drink in a paper cup and the CM serves you. Guest can't do their own drink.
