Cruise and Theme Park Operational Updates due to Coronavirus

[Dentam]

Can I just say I am SO excited about Tron - I've re watched the Disney Parks video from the Tron ride probably 10 times.

Today.

I'm so happy to hear that construction is ongoing. This is probably the first ride I've been excited about since they built Rock n' Roller Coaster in the early 00's.

WhAt D'yA mEaN iT gOeS zErO tO sIxTy In UnDeR tHrEe SeCoNdS?!?!

I rode it in Shanghai shortly after that park opened and it's a lot of fun! I do wish it was a little longer - maybe the WDW one will be?

Guess Universal Hollywood is about to see an enormous influx of guests since they’ll be the only domestic park with Nintendo for a long, long, long time

and same with Disney Adventure Park whenever Avengers Campus opens. I know I would like to make a specific trip at some point to see it

Why cant people be excited about well themed rides, and also rollercoasters? Disney isn’t a park that is going to put rollercoaster tracks in the park, half-... the theming and call it a day like other parks in the US.

I’m very excited about Rat. I havent been to DLP, and I’m sure I’m not the only one.
I’m extremely excited to finally ride RotR and MMRR.
But I’m also very excited for Tron and Guardians. But I’m excited for those because they’re going to be highly themed coasters.

If D23 goes on as planned, I’ll be back out there next year for Avengers Campus. Getting to ride Indy gets me excited for DLR trips, and staying at my favorite resort, Grand Californian. I’m really excited about the Avengers campus. It’s getting little to no hype, probably because of Spider-Man Midway Mania

Okay, my friend just text from AK and some of the worker are saying the parks will be probably be closed tomorrow due to the hurricane. Has anyone else heard this?

that'd be kind of silly considering Orlando probably wouldn't see any rain til Sunday.

Yeah that’s doubtful right now.

Exactly what I told her.

Well, someone else will say they thought it was great.

All depends on what people read!

Not sure I would ever define myself as a big spender, but as a non-local who drives a 2004 car (not even a fancy one, lol) and shops at thrift stores to pay for my WDW deluxe packages, honestly hearing anything about even a shred of a return to normalcy is exactly what I need to read

This is more important to me than CoP for our trip next week. Flame away!

I hear more talk of Ratatouille then Tron.

B/c there are coasters everywhere, but well themed family rides are hard to find & mostly only at Disney parks.

And Ratatouille is closer to being done than Tron. So of course the excitement is going to be higher for something that’s going to be welcoming guests to ride “soon” than something that is still at the very least 7-9 months away, if not further off

It simply amazes me people are so dense where they think its ok to do that

Apparently one of the ride vehicles on space ship earth was showing an advert for World of Warcraft on its screen today. Nice.

Also hearing that a lot of layoffs are coming to Universal as well. Its sad to hear the theme park industry having a hard time.

 

[Mit88]

None of them will be missed

I should have stated earlier, yes MK is much more crowded today. Great for Disney. Mask compliance has been amazing in the parks. Crowded walkways are an issue today as there are instances of being shoulder to shoulder with people while passing. We switched resorts yesterday and mask compliance at the one we switched to is awful. It took a hour and a half to get on a bus this morning as they’re only coming every 35 minutes. There was quite a line and literally every group in front and behind us had masks off. I understand this is beyond Disney’s control but we had a rough start to our morning.
