Cruise and Theme Park Operational Updates due to Coronavirus

[dreamit]

While I’m stuck in this ROTR line, I’ll share my experiences at the parks and resort with respect to guests acting respectful of rules and others. I am witnessing almost entirely great behaviors. People are careful in lines, apologizing if they get close in a doorway, etc. I am not seeing people trying to get around the mask requirement by walking around with food or drink. Rather, they take a drink and pull the mask back up. At the resort, i sometimes see people from a distance with their mask lowered, but they pull it up when they see me or others getting near them. I’m good with this. Especially at the resort, I think you have to give people the benefit of the doubt regarding their intent to comply. It’s easy to get up from eating or a pool chair and momentarily forget the world has changed and you need to get your mask back on. For some reason I find myself starting to remove my mask instead of my sunglasses when I go from outside to inside a building. When out and about at home, I’ve been wearing masks for months, so I’m used to it, but the resort situation isn’t ingrained in me yet.

DHS has been rough. Not sure anything has gone off correctly yet.

Reading where? Because that sounds great...

This is how the BG process has worked since the beginning. Do we have reason to believe it has changed?

That is a huge bummer. It’s silly but I was really excited about the standalone Festival center but I figured it would be one of the first things to be scrapped or heavily scaled back.

This was my most anticipated part of the EPCOT announcement, other than the graveyard being taken down. But like the Main Street Theater, it seemed doomed from the start

Happy to report we were able to walk on Carpets this morning!

Are you sure it was carpets you rode? I find it VERY hard to believe it’s a walk on, ever

Can’t get any wait times on my app. Did they move it or is there an issue?

It's up for me, TSM and MMRR both showing temp. closed. 60 min ToT, 50 min SDD, 25 min MFSR

I'm seeing them as usual

Edit: @Carol Jackson do you have the latest app installed? (I wonder if that's why?)

The map went away for me at the top, but I can still see them with the locator icon at the bottom. Hopefully that helps!

Radar for Orlando is looking like some rain is coming soon, this will give us an idea of how physical distancing challenges may present during Florida's summer showers.

The smart ones will mosey on down to hang out with Mr. McQueen before the rain hits

DHS reopening is looking kind of like a disaster

We are supposed to go Fri. I’m wondering if we should skip it. Does anyone know if I can change my park reservations to a different park if it’s available?

It disappeared from the top of my app (android version) but if you tap here, it brings it up.

So based on reports it looks like like MK, EP, and DAK all seem like they're running smoothly. Meanwhile, DHS and DS are struggling to put it mildly. I hope Disney takes that feedback and makes some improvements to the ladder two.

I’ve read reports that the Seas and the Land pavilions are both a mess with people camping out to escape the heat. Many people showing no regard for distancing. Haven’t seen photos, just a few people complaining on Facebook.

But for the people like me that don’t even know where McQueen building is even while staring at a map, that’s easier said than done

You have to cancel your current reservation before you can book a different one.

You should be able to. You can view the availability before you drop, then drop and replace

I have changed a few a couple times for my upcoming trip but haven’t tried it recently

It moved. There are tabs along the very bottom now

I’m very appreciative of the first hand reports in this thread. I keep tweaking plans based on what I’ve seen here. DS meal has been pushed up to an early lunch and pool in the evening to avoid more unruly crowds. And we currently have two days at HS. We’ll give it some time but if it continues being a mess I may switch one day over for an extra MK day instead. We’d rather relax and have extra space than fight the crowds.
