Disney News, Discussion & an Element of Fun!

[jpeterson]

This is part of the problem with how many people went during COVID. Disney learned what we were willing to forgo to simply be "in the magic." People came.

The question is, once restrictions are lifted, are people still going to accept a "lesser" experience?

I'm watching things closely for my December trip.

And it's hard to say what lesson Disney should learn from the COVID time. It could mean people will accept a lesser experience, it could also just have been that people were willing to take what they could get when so much was closed or didn't feel safe to them. In a couple more months, that may not be the case and Disney may see a big drop-off.

Things are going to be weird for tourism over the next couple of months. Huge pent up demand will keep things crowded all over for a while, but how long will it last? I know at my work it's already been remarked about how many people are taking multi-week vacations instead of the usual week here or there (I'm one of them!).

While I was waiting on the gf bus to Hollywood studios this morning a tour for training cast members was going on. I overheard the leader say they don’t expect the Epcot monorail back until the 50th. I’m really hoping he’s wrong and it’s back sooner then later. I miss the ease of the Epcot monorail

It was the full show from the Galactic Spectacular at Hollywood Studios. I just watched it on a LiveStream on YouTube, someone caught the whole show from Epcot!

Look up EarsomeEmporium on YouTube. It’s her stream at Epcot from tonight and you can fast forward or rewind to it!

Does anyone know if the pools (more specifically Stormalong at BC/YC) are increasing capacity yet? And what the waitlist situation is like each day? We're going to be there at the end of July, and really hoping it'll be more of a normal walk up situation given the loosening of other restrictions recently (and pace of it). But wasn't sure if maybe anyone here knew or heard anything specific? Thanks!

No wait on Wednesday and plenty of chairs. Just might be in the sun.
