News Round Up 2020

I have a friend on FB who said yesterday that WDW cancelled their September trip. Anyone else hearing about cancellations that far out?

ETA: She now says they were going in July. Makes sense now.

Were they on a cruise?

No - but she just edited her post that she was supposed to be going at the end of July.... which makes much more sense.

just to change things up a bit, some new aerials out from Bioreconstruct including looking at the work being done to Cinderella Castle ... looks like they have made good progress on the new pain scheme

Can't recall off hand, but did Disney win some of the previous suits?

I don’t remember either. I’d have to do some research.

That's a decent amount of cranes right there; they are making good progress at least from that angle it appears that way

Yeah they *definitely* couldn't be working like that if the park was open. It's good to see them taking advantage of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to do work in the daylight.

yeah, at least per Bioreconstruct (not sure if it is based on inside info or just their estimation based on progress) they feel it will be done prior to MK opening. There was another photo of the back side and it seemed like while progress made, more to do there

that will be really nice to get to enter to a just redone castle and not see any cranes or anything

Are a majority of the previous construction projects back underway? Rat/GotG/Epcot Spine being the 3 main ones I hope they've been able to work on. Still over a month to go before opening day for Epcot. Wasn't Rat originally going to be ready for Summer? Maybe they didn't lose too much time to make the start of Fall.

I've been curious about Ratatouille the most. They were getting so close. Hopefully some news/rumors come about construction continuing on that.

I am very excited that Disney has at least started some construction/painting projects back up.

I wonder if they might work hard to push some timelines and finish some projects before guests come back, like the Epcot walkways.
