Feel the same! I was prepared to be able to endure the mask because of short lines. Wearing a mask & running around the park looking for shorter lines = not a happy camper. Also not many food choices.View attachment 517027
The bus for DS to Pop tonight at 9pm. Stop 19 but we're back all the way to 24. Insanity. AK today felt very busy when in line. Not as bad walking around but still crowded. Many more maskless people and people who didn't have their noses covered. Very little enforcement from CMs. Hoping tomorrow is better because this kinda sucks without fp after planning for short lines and walk ons.
Yep. Shortest line we waited in was 25 minutes unless you count Triceratops Spin. Most were 35-45. Wouldn't be terrible if we could at least use fp. But it gets old standing in the hot sun in the queues that stretch way beyond the entrance.Feel the same! I was prepared to be able to endure the mask because of short lines.

That's not funView attachment 517030
Can't even see the end of the line for Pop bus. We've been waiting 50 minutes now at DS.
Yes because covid hasn't changed, so why Disney is suddenly letting more people in is beyond me.Did people really think crowds were going to stay that small?
theyre not "letting" more people in....they have a limited capacity number whether it be 20K or 25K...whatever it was it was never close to reaching that number. Well now it is and the crowds are getting larger. They haven't upped their capacity, but instead of getting 4K or 5K theyre now getting 10K or 15KYes because covid hasn't changed, so why Disney is suddenly letting more people in is beyond me.
I don't know how anyone really knows that, but I know that compared to all the reports on here today was disappointing. I hope tomorrow is better, being a Monday. We planned this trip long before covid, when fp still existed. That would be a game changer for us, having fp. We are working really hard to get everything in and it's more exhausting than it's supposed to be.theyre not "letting" more people in....they have a limited capacity number whether it be 20K or 25K...whatever it was it was never close to reaching that number.

I'll let you know my opinion tomorrow!I am headed there for a trip 9/26. Just wondering, for those of you who have been or are there now, are the sudden longer lines due to it just being a weekend, do you think? Or has WDW bumped up to the next "phase" of capacity? We plan on visiting MK on a Wednesday during our trip, so hoping we will miss some of that extra weekend traffic. All our park days are on weekdays except our first day, which is Epcot and that's on Sunday.
Did people really think crowds were going to stay that small?...I honestly don't get why anyone is surprised. We had a trip scheduled this week and canceled about a month ago just because we didn't want to pay top dollar for a limited experience. But why this spike in crowds is a surprise to anyone boggles my mind. Disney has not hid anything....lines are spread out, restaurants that are open are at limited capacity, menus are limited, transportation is limited. As numbers in Florida drop and hotels begin to open, crowds will get even larger. Right now there are almost no hotels open, only DVC. People are becoming more comfortable going out and Disney has not yet hit their limited capacity on any days. If you are only going because you think every ride will be walk on or 5 minutes, you may want to rethink your plan.
See this stuff is unacceptable in my opinion. Disney knows they have absolutely nothing offered to guests at night; yet they're not going to ramp up bus service to DS. Reports like this and the crazy wair times is what may make us cancel our upcoming trips. It's one thing to accept not having certain shows/night time stuff etc.; it's quite another for them to basically say who cares and not even try. We can accept paying more for less right now; we can't accept paying to be miserable and this weekend and the previous sporadic reports of long bus times etc. looks pretty miserable. Really disappointing. I really feel for any who are there right now on vacation.View attachment 517030

woohoho...Mr. CEO specifically said "anyone lucky enough to get into Disney during this time would be experiencing once in a lifetime low crowds etc." You mean that he wasn't being genuine lol.Did people really think crowds were going to stay that small?...I honestly don't get why anyone is surprised.
