Cruise and Theme Park Operational Updates due to Coronavirus

[Lewisc]

Biggest news today is Pop Century resort staff recalled. We have no guarantees they are being recalled *to Pop Century*, but I mean, they probably are.

The report is the recall applies to CM working in pool bar and Everything Pop. Housekeeping wasn't listed.

Can live with that!

Maybe not if your employer requires 2 week quarantine without pay before reporting to work

I don’t think you’ll see companies trying to control where their employees travel during their vacation time. If the employees are required to quarantine due to a local emergency order, they’ll likely just have to let them work from home.

Unfortunately there are many jobs where it’s just not possible to work from home. Ex. The entire service industry

Someone on the Resorts Board posted it yesterday. That was the first time that I had seen it.

I have a FT CM friend who was recalled and given a 6/21 start date. She wasn't told where she would be assigned other than "Magic Kingdom." So, as others have stated, I don't think CMs previous location is necessarily an indication of where they will be assigned when they return to work.

So like if Edna should be wearing a mask, laugh if she shouldn't?

She should!! This bugged me SO MUCH

I thought mini golf would be opening along with the parks. Thats kind of a bummer.

with the rise of cases, does anyone think Florida will go into lockdown again?

With the politicians that are running the state, I think there is zero chance that Florida will go back in to lockdown.

California is having the exact same spike Florida is having, Disneyland is in the same metro area that the biggest spike in CA is happening and no one is asking about these things with Disneyland and California. I wonder why that is?

Did she work in MK before it closed? Just wondering if they're at least keeping people in their same park or not.

Wow. I bet they'll be changing that and putting a mask on her before it goes out.

This!!

My BIL was supposed to come on our Disney cruise with us in September but his work said if he goes, he will have to quarantine for 14 days upon return using vacation time. He’s a chef/partner of his restaurant. So he cannot come. Not sure what the reaction would be if they went somewhere else or if it’s just the cruise situation they don’t like.

There is generally more WDW chatter on this board than Disneyland chatter.
