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

[MomOTwins]

Starting to work my way through the new info. Temperature checks were one thing, but now I can't enter WDW resort if I have a headache??? This is the silliest health acknowledgment form I've ever seen. People are going to be lying about this all the time because it is wayyyyy too broad. The former Disney Cruise acknowledgement you signed in the "before times" was much better--it grouped together symptoms (e.g., do you have a fever AND cough) and it didn't just say that you can't come in if you answer yes, it allowed you to answer yes and be subject to a follow-up health screening where you can explain things like "I answered yes because I threw up this morning but I am pregnant in my first trimester and throw up every morning."

By entering Walt Disney World Resort, you are confirming that you and all persons in your party are not experiencing any of the following symptoms of COVID-19 identified by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention at CDC.gov, including:

• Fever or chills
• Cough
• Shortness of breath or difficulty breathing
• Fatigue
• Muscle or body aches
• Headache
• New loss of taste or smell
• Sore throat
• Congestion or runny nose
• Nausea or vomiting
• Diarrhea

HahHa, I think we are all going to have a headache if we don't already!

MDE again gave me the multiple vq page for a second, just long enough for me to grab a screenshot

Since someone mentioned making sure your resort reservations are on MDE I opened it on my phone and noticed I only see the first resort of our split stay listed. I can see both on the desktop site, but not in the app... is that normal? I cant scroll or swipe in any way to see the second resort, nor do I see a way to readd it using a confirmation number. Normally I wouldn't care, but I know sometimes things work better on one platform or the other on release days so Id like to have both options ready to go...

They're gonna have to append "new" onto the headache and fatigue portions of this... they do realize what they're peddling right?

So, this is the same as pre-Covid19 procedure but Park capacity should be greatly reduced. Maybe ride capacity will also be greatly reduced but hopefully not. Thinking positive here.

So I wonder for at least Rise, it's going to be like what it was the first couple of weeks that it was open (where you clicked on the app after you tapped in to get a BG, instead of waiting til 8am or whatever opening was)

This is some complete bull-soon.

classic!

I have to answer yes/no on an app for each of those questions each day if I want access to my office. Just went to the doc (part of a big healthcare system) for routine appointment and the front desk employee (who they have stationed outside of the office) had to ask me each one of those and enter my yes/no answer into her computer. As long as companies need some cover from liability, I suspect all of this stuff is here for awhile.

FWIW, I can see all of my resort stays in the app as normal, no issues on my end.

I’m starting to get nervous. My AP expired May 11. I have reservations at Beach club for July 11. So no active tickets in MDE. Until they fix the AP extension. If they open that reservation system and don’t allow me to make reservations, I’m not gonna be very happy.

I think you're right.
Recently, I had to fill out a form at the dentist with similar type questions - filled it out once for the cleaning and then was asked again just a few days later to fill it out when I went back to fix a crack on my tooth. They also took my temp.

Thanks for verifying something is wonky... eek!

Uggh. This is almost my exact boat. I didn’t even consider that.

 

[aristocatz]

I used to have this all down to a science and now I feel totally lost and anxious about our trip....even though its still several months away....

We have a trip planned for January 2021.
Majority of our stay is in a DVC (points rental/non-DVC members) & one additional night in WDW hotel booked direct through Disney.
I'm not too worried about Fastpasses-we have pretty good park strategies. Don't care too much about dining reservations-we will find places to eat (though I'm fully prepared for my kids' disappointment if Akershus or other character meals don't open.)

I'm super worried about park tickets. We don't have them yet. My parents are traveling with us and they are AP holders, so I'm guessing they don't need to worry. Should I worry about the rest of us?

Does anyone have any links they can put on here that have any info about how Disney is thinking about handling ticket sales once they unfreeze them?

Thank you

Hah,

Do you have:

• Fever or chills - No, it's 95 degrees and humid and I'm not even close to chilly.
• Cough- No, only when I see my Resort portfolio.
• Shortness of breath or difficulty breathing- No, only because of the mask I'm forced to wear.
• Fatigue- Yes, I just got off the Red Eye and haven't slept in 48 hours.
• Muscle or body aches- Yes, from lifting my Wife's 50 pound suit cases.
• Headache- Really?
• New loss of taste or smell- No, but I was hoping to get to taste something at a Disney Restaurant if I can get an ADR.
• Sore throat- Yes, from yelling about this craziness.

The app can be glitchy. If both reservations show on the computer i wouldn’t be too worried. Try signing out and back in to the app. It will eventually reappear.

Muscle or body ache may also be caused by sleeping on a bench at one of the parks because we less than 30 days from the date we were SUPPOSED to check in, we don't know if our hotel is open !!! But sure that info is coming soon !

Btw, another cause could be holding your phone while waiting for a cm to answer to make an ADR at one of the five open restaurants!
