Here is the full CDC order.

https://www.cdc.gov/quarantine/pdf/CDC-Conditional-Sail-Order_10_30_2020-p.pdf
Starting at the bottom of page 31 is where the minimum standards start:

The cruise ship operator must in marketing materials, on its website, and in offerings for voyages, notify prospective passengers prior to accepting a reservation of any CDC travel advisory, warning, or recommendation relating to cruise travel. Such notification must further advise prospective passengers that, if a threshold of COVID-19 is detected on board the cruise ship during a voyage, the voyage will be ended immediately and the ship returned to the U.S. port of embarkation, and their subsequent travel, including their return home, may be restricted or delayed.

Frienship boats are running between HS and IG today.

Funny Ashley story:
My son and I were attending a Star Wars weekend, just walking along one day in MGM (he in stunned silence after just meeting a HUGE Darth Vader) and Ashley sticks her head out of a door, looks straight at me and says “hi! How’s it going?” as if talking to a personal friend...
I couldn’t believe she was talking to me so I looked around to see who she was talking to! Lol...... but it was just us there...... I looked back to answer and “poof” she was gone!
I’d have loved to get an autograph, Ahsoka Tano is my fav SW character.

she is one of the kindest celebrities I have ever met. We met her in her first visit to SWW and my daughter immediately loved her, every year we would go say hi and she would remember my daughter's name. Years after SWW ended Ashley went to SWGE, she visits often as she lives here in Central Florida, and she saw my DD working and went over to say hi. She is very kind.
Related to SWGE news I just got confirmation that to get a bg at 7am all you need is a valid ticket and a DHS park reservation, no matter where you are

Definitely GF walkway. I’d say that’s open by the end of the year. Rat, my prediction is next summer.

Oh yeah - I'll be cruising next year - NOT!

I understand. Given the very liberal cancellation policies with the major U.S. cruise lines, I'm OK with riding it out for another ~12+ months and see how this unfolds.

If I wasn’t making my 50th reservations tomorrow using the remainder of my banked points, I’d loan you some points to get a room to get a DHS reservation.

If I were Disney, I’d release all the limited merch at DHS and only DHS. That’s how you get room bookings.

Halloween Saturday has to be one of the toughest days of the year for a last minute anything. Hoping they’re still there tomorrow!

No they are available at WDW.

For those in the NY area new rules have just been put into place.

It seems like the travel advisory has been lifted, and now, anyone going to NY from any state must provide a negative test results.

Yup

That's why I posted it.

Could help now attracting more people to Disney from the Northeast.

Not fully eliminating the quarantine. Now the quarantine period is 3 days and then you must get a negative test to end the quarantine. Without the negative test it’s still a 14 day quarantine requirement. It’s still an intricate process. For NYer’s coming back from visiting WDW, they would need a negative test within 3 days of their flight (in the state they’re coming back from), then have to quarantine for 3 days in NY, then get another negative test in NY.
