so we made reservations for a trip at the end of June. I am not wondering if they will be increasing capacity with the new guidelines released and the idea that CA I’m general will be loosened up on June 15.
What are the current thoughts on if they will do this? And what capacity? We were excited to be able to go without large crowds but now wondering if that will be changed.
 
I think it is important to realize that the crowd "feels like" level is directly proportional to how much is open/running. If by June, they can reinstate shows and higher capacity on attractions, even with more people around, it won't feel any different than it does now.

We went last Sunday. It felt crowded because there is only so much for people to do. 25% capacity means 25% capacity on rides as well. We spent a lot of time waiting for things all day, and when walking around, were brushing arms with people passing by. It did not feel "empty."
 
I agree with DL Gal above. We just got home from 5 days in the parks. Our first 2 days felt lighter crowd-wise. I kind of think they are increasing capacity a tiny bit everyday. That’s what it felt like to us. The last couple days felt pretty busy in Disneyland. We were brushing up against people as we walked through Frontierland and Main Street at times. Not all the time, but the afternoons felt busier than the morning or evening. It was definitely busier crowd-wise than I was expecting. The wait times were never busier than around 40 minutes for the most popular rides. They’d peak at 60 minutes now and then, but that wasn’t an average time that you’d see. Pre-Covid a 40 minute wait on Space Mountain would indicate low crowds so we know the crowds are “low” but it didn’t always “feel” like it. DCA did feel less crowded but there is also more walkway space over there. I personally think everyone going needs to be prepared for it too feel crowded. When they open up things like shows it will help spread the crowds out more. We did feel pretty safe Covid-wise. We were never in a crowded situation inside, in line, or on an attraction. Only walking outside and of course, everyone has their masks on.
