Cruise and Theme Park Operational Updates due to Coronavirus

I had a hard time choosing between the "mad" and "sad" react to this. I feel like a lawsuit is imminent.

I didn't expect much different here. We see they don't seem to have the within a certain distance guidance this time around at least.

Lol poor USH won’t be coming back for a long, long time.

PS: none of this is surprising.

At least not "soon"

Let’s place bets on how long until Chapek calls into CNBC.

At least not "soon"

I mean, when does it become just too much to have two non-operating parks?

Any possibility of permanent West-Coast closings?

The economic destruction about to happen to Anaheim is going to be horrendous. Nobody who isn’t a big corporation is going to be able to assemble enough capital to wait this out.

(A reminder for those who don’t know “yellow” is considered mathematically impossible for a large county like OC without a widespread vaccine.)

Honesty I think its time for Disney to start becoming creative if they want west coast revenue. They are going to have to do a food festival at DCA or something.

No. Disney itself can survive fine money wise keeping it all shuttered for a couple years. Too much money to be made off it once it does open.

No indoor lines? ROFL. Wouldn’t have mattered if they did allow DLR to open. Not enough outdoor space for that.

I could see "relocating" before "permanent closure" - some Western state would love to have those parks. I pitched Nevada earlier 2 weeks ago...maybe my Nostradamus sense was just 2 weeks early...

Yeah DL is in trouble there.

It's got to be such a financial drain.

I really think years down the road - not allowing to open until basically a vaccine and metrics that are almost impossible to meet will be a seen as a terrible overreaction.

I know everyone else isn't surprised, but I'm actually quite shocked at how unreasonable he's being.

Well, the upkeep from having it turn into a decaying shell is not zero...nor is the security needed to keep it from getting destroyed...

Only so long they'll pitch good money after bad...
