Cruise and Theme Park Operational Updates due to Coronavirus

[Mit88]

Waiting sucks. But it also will be more rewarding when you get to finally go because of the time away from WDW. Things might not be 100% back to normal, but as we’re seeing, WDW is continuously bringing more and more back, so much so that a lot of it is being swept under the rug of conversations here whereas 3 months ago a QS reopening would have garnered a 15 pages of conversation (mixed with M-word debates, of course). I cancelled my October trip after going in August because there really wasn’t much that had been brought back that would have enabled me to do much that I hadn’t already done in August. My trip in March seems to look like there will be plenty more for us to do and enjoy and it’s a long enough break where I’ll be able to appreciate it all again

Why is everyone cancelling?

Some people are worried about traveling due to the current levels of COVID cases. I believe that’s the case with people here. The acceleration in cases has also led to some state/work/school quarantine rules changing so that could be affecting some people as well.

There's a pandemic.

So. There's been a pandemic for 10 months.

I think a lot of states have tightened their quarantines. Also, maybe it's because the weather is supposed to be a bit cold??

Okay.

We leave Friday and will welcome the cold temps. We are used to it. And yes, I will still have to take the grandtinker to the pool and splash area. Polar plunge.

Frustrating bus ride from MK to AKL Jambo today. Someone got on at Kidani without a mask on, bus driver didn’t say anything but we ran off as soon as we could. Hoping it was an isolated incident.

It looks very different right now than it did a couple months ago, many places are shattering Covid records. Some people who were comfortable traveling to Disney a couple months ago are not now.

Report the time and route if you still remember it to Disney guest services. That is not in keeping with Disney’s rules.

Numbers are through the roof and the CDC is recommending not traveling

We've cancelled all potential travel including just within state to family for holidays (as an example)

Others are comfortable traveling and Disney is certainly still open but I think understandable why people are cancelling trips now when perhaps a while ago they would have been ok going

We did! Just sharing, Disney can still work on enforcement.

Holding them to 100% is not remotely possible though. Bus driver obviously missed one. It will happen. Did anyone on the bus say anything? A simple... Hold on, I am getting off and tell the driver as you pass by you are not riding with a person unmasked.

Were you within 6 feet from the person?

I can understand there not being 100% compliance in the parks but on a bus of 6 people total and the bus driver directly looking at the unmasked person, it should completely be compliant.

They told us when we were there that there is a camera but didn't show us that.

They should out up just a ton of signs about wearing masks as if they are all educational decrees

Maybe holding out and waiting to see if a vaccine changes the game in 2021 is playing a part. I myself am reticent to plunk down my average $8k if the world and DS are a different place this time next year.

People are canceling because the third peak appears to be peaking three times as high as the second peak. The third peak should top out around Christmas. With deaths to peak sometime in Jan.

Im sticking to my trip Dec 19-26 and then quarantining for ten days before going back to work on Jan 5. I kind of hope more people cancel.

To add a little more detail. I traveled twice during the summer peak. Once to Vegas and once to Orlando(Universal as Disney wasn’t open yet). At a table service during both trips. Traveled by air both trips.

Was also in Vegas Nov 18-23. Flew there and back. Ate a table service. Saw two shows(Carrot Top and David Copperfield).

I understand the risks and take all the proper precautions.
