Cruise and Theme Park Operational Updates due to Coronavirus

[Fido Chuckwagon]

What could they even be basing it on at this point? We don’t know definitively how many people will be there, how capacity limits actually effect the attractions in practice, how cleaning slows lines, etc.

Yeah, they’ve got to be guessing at this point.

They're just racing full on to herd immunity basically now.

And even that is wishful thinking, lol.

No, the original ban required venues whose earnings were 50% or more alcohol to close. Now it doesn’t matter, any bar can open. Way to go Florida!

Said bar must operate at 50% capacity and sell food and beverages. So it’s not that just any bar can open as they wish. There are still restrictions.

Yes , figured that would happen because, some bars were getting caught up in the regulations when they weren't the target. The target was bars packing in people using loopholes etc. and the government had no way of enforcement. closing "bars" at Disney like Oga's was not the target. It was the 2020 Beach bash mega $1 beer rave at the local college bars.

50% capacity at Oga's still seems like it would be very crowded.

Doesn't mean they have to have 50% they can go much less if they want.

You might as well cancel your trip now. Announced social distancing policies will slash capacity on both of the new star wars attractions.

Agree. The only reason lines for MF:SR have been remotely reasonable is that ride is a beast when it comes to capacity. Now with one party per cockpit, especially with such an interactive ride, it's going to see a huge capacity hit (and that's if they operate all the simulators). ROTR with its "pre-show" chokepoints is also going to be an issue.

Yes, as long as they sell something you can eat and pretzels are food, they can open. The restrictions are meaningless.

Most bars will be wishing they can manage to find enough customers to get to 50% right now.

The restriction is basically meaningless now.

Exactly. Majority of bars sell some kinda food, and would be lucky to get to 50% right now anyway. Meaningless.

So, sell some wings and mozzarella sticks for pennies on the dollar, or bundle a Covid special: buy a burger, get a beer. So many loopholes to get around this "rule".

I disagree. As mentioned this rule when put into place was to curb the masses at the beach bars where those my age are going and partying nightly. This isn’t for Disney style bars.

That said what will the enforcement be? That’s the real question. This rule needs to be enforced.

At Disney springs now. WoD is at capacity and needs a vq. Goofys candy co ans the sw store has a line to enter
It's raining and they are holding people outside due to capacity

If that is happening before parks are open, it is going to be the case permanently once they do open.

Can you let us know if Jock Lindsay’s is open?

Is it for indoor only though? 50% limit on a beach bar seems difficult to enforce where people may be coming and going constantly
