Disney News, Discussion & an Element of Fun!

[SuzErwin]

At this time, that is correct.

Norwegian Cruise Lines is suing the state of FL over this, so it may change.

Other cruise lines are offering a decreased, limited experience for non-vaccinated passengers, and to receive the more pleasant experience, one must show proof of vaccination. It is not out of the realm of possibility for Disney to do the same for guests (can’t stay at certain on-property hotels without proof of vaccination, for example. Or can’t make an indoor table service reservation, or receive an appointment at Savi’s, or secure a boarding group for Rise, etc.).

To divert attention on this slow news week, does anyone know of any charities that take used Disney princess dresses? They're all from Disney so they've held up pretty well over the years (especially the Deluxe Aurora) and I hate the idea of just dropping them off at a goodwill.

Maybe contact Give Kids The World. They grant kids Disney wishes and its amazing all that they do for the families.

Next week is August... think we’ll hear anything about the holiday after hours events?

 

[SuzErwin]

It's not impossible, but it is very out of line with anything they've been doing. (rapidly removed any measures that cut into their bottom line, packing the parks full of people, and only bringing back ones that don't)

They imposed masks again and are requiring employees to be vaccinated. Never underestimate the court of public opinion when it comes to Disney and public perception of safety (otherwise, I agree with you).

I’m hoping! I mean, if the tickets are supposed to go on sale in August, they’d better give us some details first.

This was suggested to me and I looked into it, unfortunately they can not accept used costumes due to some of their children being immunocompromised. I'm going to send them some straight from the Disney store during the next costume sale and am looking into donating my kid's collection to an elementary school in a more impoverished area once schools go back into session. Though if there is some teachers in the northern US in need on this board feel free to PM me and we can try to work something out, they're in the 5/6/7 size range.

I’m wondering if the hold up is in deciding what they can & cannot offer. Like a parade for instance, where they’re not fully sure. It’s so hard to plan without these details though. Tough spot for all.

It’s great seeing the Epcot resort area coming back to life.

This news made my December trip more exciting. Nothing like B&C on demand when you’re staying at the resort

There’s no experience yet, of course, but given the very much more limited number of rooms/guests in the designated resorts, i don’t think it will influence park attendance during the day nearly as much as the previous EMH did that were open to all onsite resort guests. I’ve seen numbers of rooms in various posts here on the DISboards.

I’m switching to the extra extended hours - will report back. We’ll be at the first two.

 

[Cynner]

If I remember correctly EMH at Epcot was never really great since most things in WS closed at regular time and then FW was packed. But since it’s just for deluxe guests FW shouldn’t be as bad.

I checked the old evening extended hours description for Epcot - and all the rides are open, including the ones in WC. That’s a huge deal now.

Harmonious is late!

Our arrival day/night is Epcot. I think we will actually skip Harmonious that night so we can catch a bus easily back to our resort. I want to be in the room by 11 because we have an early day at AK for our first full day! But if AK closes early, we will hop to Epcot that night to close out with Harmonious.

Sometimes you have to take one for the team.

Seriously! I mean I’d rather not, but I feel like it’s my duty to report what conditions are like on the ground.
