I was fine until they said “welcome home” then I was ugly crying.

Does the fence mean that guests at the Poly will not have access to the boat to GF?

someone said boats won't be running at all at first.

I really don't think NBA will be using SAB. it is simply going to stay closed until both BC and YC are re-opened.

Are they not going to have a pool? Not that the players made it known they need a pool or the deal is a no-go, but it’d be interesting if those teams didn’t get a pool since the only other pool I know of is the DVC pool

So multiple temperature screening tents have been put up at TTC, which is interesting because thus far I dont believe any guests presently on property have had to do temp checks at the resorts. Not sure what sites one is allowed to link to, but if you google "temperature screening tents disney world" you can see photos!

Maybe they’re for returning CMs?

Previews start in just over a week, I’d imagine they’re for guests and CMs.

Not surprising. Basically every other theme park is requiring temp checks for admission. Hopefully disney is using the walk through models which are simple and easy and no problem whatsoever and if they also add the evolv bag/people scanner getting through security will be easier then it ever has been. This is likely a good thing not a bad thing.

Not even to the parks?

Fair point. They may have access to the hot tub but not the full "water park" (slides, lazy river, and so forth) is at least my guess.

Is there a quiet pool at YC?

Is there a quiet pool at YC?

Looks like there is

 

[TheMaxRebo]

correct, just monorail, bus, and skyliner

Maybe they will take temps there before people get into the heat. Then if someone has a temp they can go home right away before transferring to a park. Also it could prevent longer queues at the parks. They might use bands to show that people have had their temps checked already.

With the way MK is setup with having to board transporation from TTC to MK that seems the best place to do the temp check. Before you board boat or monorail to MK proper.

The fence along the crescent lake path seems to be so you can’t walk behind YC, right? Don’t know that it’s necessarily to block off SAB. That’s why I would assume it would be up anyways, I joked when they announced YC for the NBA that people could walk the path and watch them in the courtyard and on their balconies like zoo animals.

Wouldn’t it make sense to block up to the start of the BW so that Swolphin can’t be walked up to either, or does that not work with MLS timing? Are there regular guests there before they arrive?

 

[New Mouse]

What else were they supposed to do? The only reason NBA and Disney were able to come to a deal while Disney was also able to run their hotels and theme parks as normal is to make sure there was no way guests would come close to interacting with the players. Disney has been hemorrhaging money for almost 4 months, the deal with the NBA softened that blow a little bit. I might not be staying down there until the NBA moves to CSR, but if I we’re down there at this time, I would have understood why they were doing this

Not let them use the slide and keep the walkway open? Let the guests who actually pay for SAB use it? With the prices they charge and are still charging today, I dont think their money woes are our concern.

Like security. I would assume that’s where they would do it, and MK’s are dispersed all over.

MLS is arriving now. some teams are already on site. If you go to the MLS thread I posted a tweet with the arrival schedules of the teams.

yeah and then add a temp/sec checkpoint on the contemporary walkway.

They'd better not be. We went to a Halloween party in August 2018 and it was incredibly crowded.

After Hours is not the same event as the holiday parties. AH parties have very limited tickets.
