WDW COVID-19 Operational Changes- Reservation System-Rope Drop Procedures

[WallEFan00]

Hmm. Now I wonder what ride I’m thinking of.

I believe all of the big boat rides do not have lap bars - Pirates, Small World, Navi River, and Frozen.

After reading how lax restraints are for most attractions at Disney are. No wonder people struggle at places like Cedar Point. Most rides there have a lap bar and a seat belt.

No lap bars on pirates.

I realize that, but I’m getting people blowing up about the fact I’ve never had a CM push down on my restraint and I’m trying to instill humor in to the situation (noting the person I was replying to said something about lap bars on pirates).

Who is blowing up? I haven't seen that in this thread. Now the face mask discussions are a different animal.

I think all the threads are starting to look alike

REMINDER TO ALL: this one is about what WDW is doing in procedures and cancellations due to the virus

SeaWorld says it would take 2 to 3 weeks to get the park ready to reopen once they get the green light. Gives an idea how long for Disney to reopen once the green light is given.

Re-opening plans:
- Date: 20 May. From now till the 20th they will do more tests with staff & family members etc, on invitation only. On 18 & 19 May they will do tests with a group of AP holders.
- Dated reservations only.
- Go down to 30% capacity.
- There are extra signs around the park with all the new rules.
......
Other parks & zoos in the Netherlands have announced their opening dates and it's all very similar to above.

Sounds good and doable.
I was hoping to go to phantasialand in Germany this summer; hopefully, they'll do something similar soon.

Who's giving the green light though? To me it sounded like the governor already basically did by telling them it was kinda up to them and in their hands?? Maybe I misunderstood?

Wouldn't surprise me that all theme parks are waiting for some other park to take the lead and see how things work.

At one of the press conferences DeSantis said the theme parks would like to open by June. I don’t think he gave any other indication of dates since then. I had posted about it at the time.

Has anyone received a survey from Disney? Just saw it on another forum.
I think it should be coming to people with early summer plans...
(I have not yet )

Yes, I just filled out the survey. I have a reservation for mid July.

Just got mine... rescheduled trip from mid May to early August

Questions about why I cancelled (parks closed/fear of travelling/travel restrictions/etc.), how much advance notice would I need before my trip about parks opening (minimum was 10 days!! ), lack of which experiences/rides/events would make me considering cancelling again (could list top 5), which circumstances would cause me to reschedule trip again (increase in cases, rides/experiences not being opened, restrictive guest policies, etc.), how soon am I interested in returning to certain activities (theme parks, concerts, sporting events, malls, restaurants, etc.)

There were more questions than these but the general gist was I think they are trying to get a feel from their guests what they expect once the parks open... in any case, I thought it was interesting. Will be curious to see how it plays out... and if I have to reschedule again based on their decisions...

We have 2 reservations coming up - 6/3-6/8 and 6/30-7/8 and I haven't received anything yet.

I just filled out my survey! We are supposed to be checking into pop century on June 1-7. At one time we were not planning on going If we had to wear masks, but my family has caved on that and will be willing to wear them if they open. I checked we will go if they are open no matter what at this point. We’ve got a back up reservation for July 14 if they don’t open by June 1 which I would love but am not counting on.

 

[yulilin3]

If anyone receives the survey could you please screenshot it and share

 

[Melodious]

I got one and our reservation isn't until September
