I don't see people following these rules in Disney World. Maybe it somehow works in other countries, but people are just not that considerate here. People are going to have trouble keeping distances and face masks will come off and be readjusted all day long. I mean, just the number of people...

The announcement is the first official word that Disney will in fact open partially, as opposed to waiting until next year to open fully. What I'm waiting for is a passholder announcement. I feel like prepayers are being brushed under the rug.

The meat plant situation is sad, but I found some humor out of this quote from the CDC's assessment of meat plant facilities. I annotated it to fit Disney World. "Facility [Disney World] challenges included structural and operational practices that made it difficult to maintain a 6-foot...

Correct, but Flex Pass is a model that is proven to technically work and would be easy enough to roll over for all ticket types. It also solves the problem of huge crowds piling up at entrances. And yes there would be many problems for people who made all kinds of ADR's, FP's, and room...

What kind of refund do Shanghai Disneyland annual passholders get? I'm hoping as WDW passholders we have the option to get more of a refund than just the couple months it was closed.

Reservations is the only solution if theme parks want to open now. If you're on a bus to EPCOT they will be saying only board if you have a reservation. Someone's probably printing up the signs now.

Disney has not announced anything, but it seems likely they will be moving to advanced reservations for park entry. Apparently Disneyland already has a system in place called Flex Pass, so Disney World could use that system. It's total speculation, but I think they should create new passes that...

Sounds like Disney is like, "Uh, we're waiting for someone to tell us we can open. Because the governor gave us a whole two sentence description for phase 2, and we need a little more than "50% capacity" and "everyone has to stay 6ft away. We don't have a ticket or season pass for that kind of...

Japan too, but the mask wearing thing was most popular in China during SARS. They wear them to help prevent the spread of diseases and it's a show of politeness and courtesy. I can maybe see the first hours of a park opening, everyone will be in masks. It will be some newsworthy pictures. But...

The current park ticket structure and season pass program does not map well to a reduced capacity park situation that may not allow you flexible entry. You can still buy tickets that supposedly offer "unlimited" entry, but it seems unlikely that is going to be the case at least for the next...

Americans will not even come close to mask wearing norms of Hong Kong. Americans will openly "hock a lugy" and spit without a second thought, because it is gross to swallow said lugy. It's going to be a giant cluster of people trying to get into the parks, waiting around at their resort trying...

How is it easy? I'm saying it technically won't happen, because people will keep taking them off, slip them down below their nose, everyone will pull them down to talk, and kids will be pulling them off. Kids will be the biggest spreaders since they are constantly touching their face. You can't...

Yes everyone has to wear them, which isn't going to happen even if they try to enforce it. But hey, if you're going to Disney you should just plan on getting infected and now you can get infected with some style!

So $5 for a mask made in China. 500% profit margin. They will be sold out for months along with hand sanitizer, but it sounds like the parks will open anyway.

Do we know what the "partial refund" is for passholders yet? Sounds like our passes are going to resume, but it's going to be still stupid to go.

Maybe it's because they can't buy enough hand sanitizer.

Does Iger and Chapek have anything to do with Lucasfilm? I've never read anything that shows they are involved, certainly not in the creative sense. Livid for rich people means they didn't get their voicemail returned fast enough.

I feel like their should be more outrage among those who have to use the slow website, almost as bad as an ADA compliance thing. It would be interesting to know how they are importing all those applications, because if it's automated then every employer should have the opportunity to send in the...

I wonder if passholders can still get a "partial refund" if we call in September when it's still not safe to go into large crowds but the park is open anyway? Disney doesn't email me directly; they tell me what's going on with my $1100 passes thru blog posts I guess.

There's one job that never needs to file for unemployment, software developers, who are now asked to import 75,000 employees into a live database skipping all data integrity checks. Why even have a website?
