Cruise and Theme Park Operational Updates due to Coronavirus

Or maybe we’re more we’ll equipped to deal with the situation in a safe manner because we just got out of being one..

You can as equipped as you want but with this virus its not all about what you do. A lot depends on others as well. I really hope Disney enforces all rules including out of state quarantine ones.

I wonder how small the bucket of park reservations are left for tomorrow’s bookings? Staying off site with tickets guests.

Next week the minefield goes in next to the fence. You step on a mine and it blows up one of your park reservations.

Idk but that’s my category and I’m going in September.

Ok I literally LOL'd long and loud at that one

I head it was just going to be ill-tempered sea bass

in 2020, Never is Sooner than “Soon”

2020 time is really throwing me for a loop! By the time I get a handle on it, it’ll be 2021.

I can only hope that everyone follows the rules. My hope would be that since Disney should know where their guests come from that they enforce the quarantine rules.

No way they can know. Not that I’m advocating any rule breaking but it’s not exactly a stretch to see people saying they were visiting relatives in FLA and just drove over
And btw, since tourism is so vital to Fla why are they still making it difficult for people to travel from those states? Can’t Desantis rescind the order for states with you know, lower infection rates than his own?

That’s me. Lived in a hot spot, cases on the rise again so will probably be a hotspot again. So...

Exactly. People have traveled to Disney with viruses for as long as the parks have been open and people will continue to do so with COVID. It’s unfortunate, but as people are posting here, the best you can do is imagine everyone you’re coming into contact with has it and take every extra precaution you can.

Yep. Just like at work, and at school, and at the store. Sick people go everywhere, unfortunately. Disney World is no different.

Theres nothing to suggest they won’t. They can only enforce what they see with their eyes. People will break the rules. If that wasn’t already very apparent, then that’s pretty naive. Nothing in the history of mankind suggests that people will inherently follow the rules to the T. I wish they would, but I’ve given up on giving humanity the benefit of the doubt long, long ago.

I know you don’t like Disney, and you’ve been hoping they wouldn’t open since before they even announced they’d reopen. But I hate to break it to you, they’re not going to make their decision based on what JRB from Disboards thinks they should do.

Did anyone post this this morning? Feel like this is pretty big news from a very reliable source. I always figured between 15-20% is where they’d start

If you read on another genuine, albeit less reliable insider posted a capacity number of 15,000 for MK.

If you read on another genuine, albeit less reliable insider posted a capacity number of 15,000 for MK.

That’s closer to what I figured it’d be. 25% even before the spike seemed like a large number. But given that there is still a lot availability at MK at the beginning of the reopening makes me feel like it’s a little larger. Even with a lack of demand, and only going to visit 1 park per day, 15,000 is not a lot of people, so I’d think that they would have booked up more dates by now. I never truly expected we’d ever see a real % anyway

I'm not saying make their decisions based on what I think. I'm just hoping they are proactive in regards to cases rising. If that means lower capacity so they can open then I hope they do it.

For what it's worth I never said I don't like Disney. Yes I like other parks more. I like all theme parks in general. Its what I usually do all summer. I travel your country visiting multiple parks a year. I am very concerned about how many states have been dealing with this. All I want to do is get back to doing what I love to do for vacations. So the quicker the hot spot states get their act together the quicker I can get back to doing what I love.

It looks like there’s an issue with the actual check-out. Sorry, everybody!

Yup, I tried to get tickets and no go.

This is the error when I tried:

"There are no theme park reservations via the Disney Park Pass system available for any park on the date selected. Check the reservation availability calendar to see when you can go."

Every day was green.

When I left WDW in December, I became ill immediately thereafter and I know I picked it up there. There were plenty of situations when I was there where I was crammed cheek to jowl with other guests (“fill in all available space”) with them literally exhaling into my mouth. Disney needs to do some fundamental overhaul to their practices. It’s going to be costly, but it will be the way it should have been all along.
