Capturing Magical Memories with Disney PhotoPass Service

 

[Moliphino]

Yeah, I knew they were on SDD an 7DMT, but when I was there in Feb they were still spacing BTMR and SM.

BTMR had every seat filled last week when we were there. That line moved really fast, it was great. It didn't bother me on mostly outdoor rides that move fast.

It didn't bother me on mostly outdoor rides that move fast.

I think that is the key on some of the rides that are being seated every row. BTMR, SDD, 7DMT, etc. are all fast moving rides that are (for the most part anyway) outdoors. I'm guessing Disney realizes the risk of transmission, even by people sitting more closely, is considerably less on those than on a ride like Pirates that are indoors and not moving as quickly.

Capturing Magical Memories with Disney PhotoPass Service

We always splurge on Memory Maker and overall we still think it’s worth it but have been disappointed trying to find photogs to do the special Zoom and 360 pics. In January we tried at every park and we’re unsuccessful. We were also unsuccessful the trip prior.

are single-riders lines coming back soon..at least at some places?

Humm. Did you double check to make sure their emails are not going to your spam? Did you try posting on the Technical Help forum to see if they can help?

I haven't tried that yet. Was working great for a while and then all of a sudden stopped. Nothing in my spam folder that I can see. I've "unwatched" and then rewatched and even made sure the little check box next to my watched threads is checked...

In your settings, under PRIVACY, see if this is checked.

Then click right below on PREFERENCES and then Click The Boxes you want...



See if they’re checked and then try again!!!

If "some places" includes Universal, then yes.

Yup...everything is checked as it should be...very weird...would love to get email notifications so I can see things on my phone quickly...When I go into my watched threads, the little box that says email is unchecked and I check it but then it gets unchecked again the next time I go in...maybe need to log out and log back in or something...I dunno.

I can't get the "watch" button to send me emails anymore...I've tried resetting it a bunch of times but I no longer get all the exciting news in my inbox...

remember that you only get ONE email on a watch until you go to the board. then you will receive another email when the next ne wpost is put up. you do not get an email for EACH new post (which personally i would prefer - especially because when I check on my phone, I dont get another email, I have to check on my computer.....)

Too bad you have to have at least one guest on points in each stateroom. Not worth the points.

[mrsap]

Disney filed a permit for the address that’s coded to Cinderella Castle with a creative exhibits company to “fabricate and install sign.”

I get it costs more to do a solar farm over a parking lot than the huge amounts of open land they have at WDW but this would fit in really well at EPCOT's parking lot.

Not sure if Disney wants to delve into this, but major announcement expected from the CDC. Supposed to include no masks for vaccinated people in outdoor crowded areas.

Indoor adjustments coming too supposedly. So exciting!

 

[StaceyHSD]

So many places here in California have installed those parking lot solar shade panels. Even my office that I haven’t been to in a year has some. It’s so weird Disney hasn’t taken advantage of that in FL.

No. I didn’t post it on purpose because this is not announcement by Disney and I do not want this thread to turn into a mask discussion...
