Disneyland Reopening Speculation Superthread

[theluckyrabbit]

Thank you so much. I really hope being outside the 90 day window won’t be a problem.

I think the other two posters were also outside the 90 day window.

Somehow, this direction of thought has me losing hope for the theme parks. I'm very pro safety and precautions, but this just baffles me. "Between bites..."??? We need to hear some good news -- doesn't have to be big news -- just something to keep us going.

I don't know whether to laugh or be horrified .

I wonder if that was just poorly worded. The picture shows the mask going on when the plate is empty. Ugh, now we'll have 30 minutes of explanation on this infographic instead of an announcement on guidelines.

Well at least you have indoor dining, Ireland has just closed all indoor dining, except take out or delivery for the next 3 weeks!

Same for Belgium for 4 weeks, and France closed the bars for at least 2 weeks, I think

It's terribly worded. I think it means that when you are done eating, put your mask back on for the sit around waiting for your bill or talking. I've been eating at outdoor restaurants a bit and everyone takes their mask off immediately when they sit down and they don't put it back on until they are leaving. I think that is what the message is referring to.

OC (red tier) does at 25% capacity right now (which includes DTD, so I'll take it!), but L.A. County does not (still purple).

That's what I'm hoping -- that what he meant to say is, "Keep your mask on whenever you aren't actually eating/drinking," i.e. before and when ordering, before the food arrives, when leaving the table for any reason, when you finish eating and plates are cleared, etc. But given the coronacoaster, I expect the worst. Sigh.

Depends on your county.

I’ve heard of some restaurants having their own policies where you must keep your mask on until food or drink arrives to your table. Once it’s there it can be off. If your table gets cleared and you’re waiting for the check, then mask must go back on.

I haven’t seen this at any of the DTD restaurants. The rule is if you’re at your table mask can be off since you’re 6 feet apart. But if you get up from your table, then mask must be on.

If that was the intent, it's unfortunate that it went uncorrected, because I feel like these are the types of things that make reasonable people resistant to following guidelines.

Oh for the love of all that is holy.

Edited to add - it's very entertaining if you go and read some of the replies to that tweet!

You’ll be fine. I purchased my tickets in February and requested a refund in August. They refunded my money with no questions asked.

The governor is talking at noon today.... about climate change. So we will likely have to wait yet another day to hear if any guidelines come out.

**beginning of digression, with loose Disney tie-in (sorry @theluckyrabbit)**

I read the comment saying maybe it's best just to eat the mask, and immediately thought of my son, who is chewing through his Disney masks. For real, people. He sits at school all day sucking and chewing on his mask. OMG. I've given him two extras to swap out, but he doesn't. He says the Disney masks "taste good". I dare anyone to see if he's right.

**end digression**

Quick!! Someone contact a reporter and see if they can ask him to demonstrate eating while putting your mask on between bites!!

I dunno; we went out to eat in a restaurant for the first time since March last weekend. At the restaurant we were at, people were seated at every other table (Napa county is in orange not sure about percentage allowed). We kept our masks on until after ordering and waited for our appetizers to arrive before taking them off. A lot of people got to their table and took their masks off, ordered with them off, kept them off until they stood up to leave post dessert. If I were a server that would have bothered me, because people spit when they talk, and if you're ordering/telling them you want something additional with a mouth full and no mask ... yikes, what are those servers being exposed to?

The servers kept coming around and asking us if we needed anything while we were eating and I felt the need to put a mask on before talking to them because I don't want to breathe on anyone outside my bubble until there's a vaccine. Once they determined we were well cared for, they went their way and we took our masks off and resumed eating. We probably will stick to take out for the next several months to reduce risk. I think this tweet is a good reminder of the underlying principles of the masks: don't talk/spit on people outside your bubble without a mask.

I would love news regarding the theme parks rather than reminders, but we Californians may need reminders too ...

I saw this last night, apparently Orange County has said when Disneyland and Knotts can open.

Newsom just said in re: to bob iger quitting.... "There is no hurry to get out guidelines.... ......its very complex..... ....don't anticipate in the immediate any of these larger theme parks opening until they see more stability in the data....."
