[Parker in NYC]

Remember about a month ago when there was talk here of air travel steadily increasing...

And the month before that... and the month before that... and the month before that...

With WDW hotel occupancy at 80%+ this weekend, going to be crowded in the parks. Watch the travel numbers for this weekend. Plus now Disney is back to marketing nationally this week.

Are you counting the closed hotels? I didn’t think so. Wrong again.

 

[Hawg G]

When it is deemed safe to it will. They really want to offer it but Covid says otherwise at the moment.

Oh, yeah, that science that says people going to 2 amusement parks in a day get much sicker. That's why Universal has had big outbreaks.

How do know they are at over 80% occupied?

Please supply a source for this. Coming in here and throwing around numbers without a link is misinformation at its finest.

He may have knocked on every hotel door and if someone opened it he counted it and moved on to the next room.

I expect projection-only shows during the holidays. Makes sense when sunset is at 5:30.

Better than nothing I guess.

Please, I’ve heard this song before. 80% of the only hotels they have reopened! And even at that, how many rooms at those hotels are actually open? I repeat, add your comment here to the never ending dead-end comments of the last 6 months. Or keep them coming, though they’re not as entertaining as in days of yore.

Are we going to get the backup for this claim? I mean you must have some hard proof that hotel occupancy is over 80%.

Perhaps 80% of available rooms, I’d buy. Relative to the last 7 weeks, it‘ll be busy. But considering park capacity, 80% resort hotel capacity (80% of the 2019 number) is not possible.

I imagine hotel occupancy as a function of available rooms is pretty high every week. That’s how you run a hotel and it’s the reason they are delaying hotel reopenings and the reason Universal closed hotels.

It will be busier then it has simply because it’s a national holiday and even during a pandemic people are still going to use those memory muscles and go away during the holiday but I still don’t think they are at over 80% occupied. I will wait to that person provides actual evidence supporting his claim.

Yes, they are. Their business is absolutely tanking, and they.continue with their customer hostile restrictions that no other park is doing.

Best let them know then if they’re doing it wrong.

Yes correct of available rooms/open resorts. Not near normal levels from last year at all. The usually run at around 80% for the resort in a normal year but obviously many more resorts are open then.

Also appears they increased capacity at the parks even more last night, prior to then all parks were sold out all weekend. There was availiblty last night in all parks last night in all buckets, now the is still availability for a few parks today only.

Caps haven’t raised since reopening.

 

[legwand77]

Sure, contrary to the actual attendance and park pass availability across all buckets even considering reallocation.

 

[marni1971]

What is the actual attendance then?
