Rumor about “modified experiences” when Disney reopens (read 1st post for potential modifications being considered)

[anthony2k7]

I think the testing thing is crazy when you consider small children. If they do it, maybe it’ll be adults only. And like has been previously mentioned, what do you do with ppl who test positive?? What about the reports that you can get false negatives? My sister (a nurse) said sometimes they get false negatives when they don’t go deep enough. So, imo, that’s when wdw opens itself up to more liability & possibility of lawsuits. If ppl know they’re coming in at their own risk, then it’s unlikely ppl will be able to sue. But, if ppl are given the false assurance that only negative ppl are being allowed in the parks & the tests aren’t always accurate, then I see more liability. Also, do you test ppl each day then enter the parks? That’s expensive & insane. I can see testing CMs regularly, but testing guests seems like a huge mess.

Surely only testing adults achieves nothing - kids could have it too!

Plus they likely touch more surfaces!

But then they’ll have to have some way of ensuring that ppl don’t leave the property. And cms do leave. So unless they’re going to test everyone every day, then it’s worthless.

Its why I think when they do open masks will be mandatory just like in Asian parks.

A business owner on the phone call this morning also brought up the possibility of immunity from getting sued due to COVID-19. He stated that for most of the business men on the phone call, lawsuits are a big risk. He acknowledged that it would be great if they could get some protection from lawsuits.

Yes that was the other part of my plan...
Basically no offsite transportation allowed and if you drive you have to turn in your keys

CMs would need to get tested daily or at least every other day.

Mandatory while at work but then cm go to the supermarket, pump gas, go out, go back home.

I dont think WDW will split up families on a ride but just looking at that picture makes me feel ridiculous for even slightly hoping that my room booking isn't canceled along with whatever park modifications are needed to be open.

That being said, rescheduling my group of 8 for 2021 looks not likely now so we will likely have to wait until 2022...so I almost wish its open enough for us to go now and get it over with.

Why is 2021 not likely? I think we will be in much better shape come next spring!

To each their own, but looking at that picture makes me not want to go any park til this dies down or there is cure.

Yep. You can bet this guy is watching and waiting...

Masks I think on the public will be encouraged. But there is no way they are going to be able to enforce that. It's Florida. It's 95 degrees and humid. You'll be lucky if you get people to wear it for an hour. Are you really going to have CMs going around yelling, "put your mask on!" "Put your mask on!" That's going to get ridiculous fast.

I understand they do it in Asia. But it's more accepted in that culture and people doing it there are willing to put up with the inconvenience.

The Universal guy said that while they wont test every employee each day, "each employee will go through a medical screening" everyday.

I don't see masks working well. Especially with kids. Masks will be everywhere. Flying off on rides, blowing around in the wind. Getting caught everywhere. That will be a debris nightmare.

Yeah, they won't make mask wearing mandatory, cm can't even block a pregnant person from going on rides that are clearly marked as unsafe for their condition.

Did they mention meet and greets at all? My soon to be DiL is friends with several characters at universal

Disney is not great about enforcing their rules. I can't see it being mandatory.

I beg to differ. Mickey just has to grow a set and go after people that don't follow the rules. If you don't like it don't go.

Those billboards on I4 are part of the vacation experience.

Masks don't fly off at Asian parks if you go by the picture I posted.

They are used to wearing them all of the time.
