WDW Reopening Estimates

[DuckTalesWooHoo1987]

The documentation from Disney says you need to bring your own.

I asked a DVC agent just while ago and she said you have to bring your own to be admitted in.

I would assume they have spare masks there somewhere for employees but they aren’t giving them out freely to guests. In a pinch if your mask broke or something and you didn‘t have a spare I bet they would hook you up but that’s not going to be the policy.

You know, there will be a few folks on here that won't know what to do with themselves if Disney successfully reopens sometime this summer. I guess they'll have to find something else to be overly pessimistic about. I can just tell though that they won't have much trouble in doing that. And I did say "if" not when.

You know, in the before-times, people had no trouble going on an on complaining about fastpasses and price increases. And the people who hated to hear anything negative about Fastpasses or WDW pricing were just as vocal arguing against them. Both sides often take a turn into pretty comical territory, in a way I'm sure posters don't intend. Much of it reads like a child's temper tantrum.

It is good to find humor in all of the absurdity! Life is pretty absurd right now.

Even now, if I were to take the voting at face value, it looks like 34 folks are still holding out hope the theme parks will reopen in May!
Now that's optimism!

Surprised they aren’t selling them at the entrances “for admission.”

The policy will be a mask to gain admission, but there will be masks for sale.

It’s good to have optimism...that generally means they haven’t been crushed by the world enough times to succumb to its evil...I remember when I used to feel that way. That’s why my happy place is WDW.

So you must have a mask, in order to buy a mask...I remember seeing UO City Walk having masks for sale at the entrances.

Chlorine = bleach = dead virus.

Tell that to the forehead boogers flinging around.

I ordered some online. They are back ordered now until the end of July.

Same goes for pants....try walking into Old Navy with no pants on to buy a pair of pants

Trust me, they frown on it.

I'd be less worried about the levers and more worried about the amount of saliva coming from the elephant in front of you. That's not rain you're feeling on your face.

I’m thinking Astro Orbiter will be one of the last things to open, because of the elevators.
I don’t see them putting people in them for a while

Well, considering that they're likely wet with chlorinated water, I don't think you need to worry about forehead boogers.

(I have 2 sons, so trust me...I know how gross kids can be and it grosses me out, too.)

They’ll just keep it “one party or group” per elevator.

I just threw up a little after reading both posts.

They might want to turn the "feel the wind in your face" fans off...

Study: 6 Feet Social Distancing Guidelines Insufficient -- Coronavirus Can Travel 18 Feet In 5 Seconds!

There's much we don't know about the airborne transmission of coronavirus, but a study shows that a slight breeze can propel saliva 18 feet in five seconds!

Not to mention removing the AWFUL air hand dryers in the restrooms. Which I personally hated as they'd started to be used more and more at Disneyland in the past few months. GIVE US PAPER TOWELS AND DON'T BLOW GERMS IN OUR FACES. Thank you. /rant

How is the Reedy Creek Improvement District being sidestepped in this reopening approval process ? If Reedy Creek has full county government powers, then why would Disney have to get approval from Orange County?

 

[marni1971]

Don’t you think there won’t some some indirect pressure to open after UO opens first?

If it happened, absolutely.

I expect to see masks sold at stores soon at all the theme parks once they re-open.

I was at Publix on Sunday and sure enough I saw masks and hand sanitizer on the shelf near the checkout lines. But I can see masks a common thing at the kiosks at the parks soon.

If it covers your nose and mouth, has ties or ear loops, fits snug and is made of a breathable material I’d say yes

I‘m sure there will be some people who test the limits or work the grey areas.

How about old boxer briefs? Shrunk in the wash but still fit around my head and have a wonderful Spider-Man pattern.

Okay, they didn’t shrink. Corona came and brought brownies.
