    Coronavirus and Walt Disney World general discussion

    This isn't much of a surprise when you remember the country currently in 2nd place of most infections is Brazil and that is also in midst winter right now too. Ultimately it's not the weather: its the safety measures that make a difference.

    On layoffs, very bad attendance, and Iger's legacy being one of disgrace

    That too, but moreso that luggage in the USA is also cheaper than in Brazil, so it's often smart to travel very light and simply buy new luggage while you're there. Fun fact: before 2020 it was becoming a trend for expecting mothers to go to the USA to buy baby items. And I have a friend that...

    If it could stop giving us the modern equivalent of the 12 plagues though, that would be grand

    On layoffs, very bad attendance, and Iger's legacy being one of disgrace

    And that impacts more than people imagine. I mean, a american tourist going to Orlando might go and buy park stuff but he's not going to go nuts anywhere else. A brazilian tourist will, however, walk through those Outlets, Walmart and Best Buy like they're the second coming of Jesus Christ*...

    On layoffs, very bad attendance, and Iger's legacy being one of disgrace

    That's sad. I was hoping that for the permanent CMs' sakes, cutting the CP would diminish the quantity getting laid off

    On layoffs, very bad attendance, and Iger's legacy being one of disgrace

    I don't think there's a risk of too much layoffs when compared to Universal, because of CP (and it's cousin ICP). Disney can -and has- simply not restore and hire CPs for a while and only use actual effective CMs while this is ongoing. Because CP was a large number of the CMs working, that...

    News Disney's Hollywood Studios July 2020 reopening reports

    Tale as old as time True as it can be Barely even friendly And no one ever bends Unexpectedly Please, just a little change Small to say the least Both very stubborn Neither one prepared Company and the Union

    Polynesian Resort and Art of Animation reopening delayed and others cancelled

    Honest question, are there any international guests at all right now? I thought everyone had forbidden travel to the USA right now. Either way, I also think this is cost saving: spreading guests out at, say, 10 hotels is safer, but placing them in only 5 is cheaper. So increasing demand in open...

    POLL: When are you planning to return to Walt Disney World?

    More like: it's been raining for the last six days, so there possibility of everywhere still being wet tomorrow -rain or no- is very high

    POLL: When are you planning to return to Walt Disney World?

    Back in March when I was forced to cancel my vacation trip (Japan...), I remember looking at my September Disney trip and thinking "Whew, at least that's far away, I don't need to cancel that since in 6 months time this will all be over". And here we are.

    POLL: When are you planning to return to Walt Disney World?

    Had to cancel my plans for September 2020, I'm still so disappointed. Ended up voting for 2021 but only because 2022 or after weren't an option, since I don't think I'll go back until: -Discounts (room and such) are back; -Attractions and fireworks are all back to working -You aren't forced to...

    IS THIS THE NEW DISNEY?

    People would love the small crowds if it came with regular, pre-Covid, levels of service and options offered. But when with the cut in crowd comes cut in entertainment and ride options while the prices remain the same or even go up, no one is going to like it. Would I pay more to be able to...

    Coronavirus and Walt Disney World general discussion

    I know my reply is... very irrelevant given I'm not in the USA but just in case you are curious for a general, world view: here people are absolutely getting tested even if they don't have symptoms. Places have been advertising two types of tests: for those who have symptoms and think they...

    What is the dumbest thing you've heard a guest say to a character?

    Saw a few male guests going to take a picture with Snow White and asking her to do a gesture with her arms that basically meant " you". Thankfully she knew it was bad and refused.

    News UP! A Great Bird Adventure Getting A Rewrite

    What I remember is this: I think the face actor started chatting, then UP character's came along and started explaining how the got there and why, face actor explained who he was, I think there was something in the script about a bird stealing/breaking something as well. Oh yes, actually I...

    News UP! A Great Bird Adventure Getting A Rewrite

    It was September 2018 last I saw (was going back this year but... here we are), I think it was Wilderness Explorer co-host since I vaguely remember some semblance of a plot about the characters joining the explorers, but I can't be certain because I definitely wasn't paying enough attention or...

    News Primeval Whirl, Stitch's Great Escape and Rivers of Light permanently closed

    I know this is a joke, but i would actually love it if that were true. Add a simple falling down elevator type ride where you fall after hearing Izma's "Pull the lever Kronk" and also add some "pet the llamas" corral for the little kids and me (which AK already has) plus a rapid river ride...

    News UP! A Great Bird Adventure Getting A Rewrite

    Definitely not sad to see them go. I saw it last time I was at AK and for the first time I felt like the show was a waste of time, too much focus on IP, too much time wasted having the characters interact between each other without birds anywhere. I was bringing along a Disney First Timer and I...

    Replacing either is understandable and fine, the issue is that they're closing without a substitute planned

    News Primeval Whirl, Stitch's Great Escape and Rivers of Light permanently closed

    I really enjoyed PW. It was especially fun when you brought along someone who had never been to it before, just to see their reaction. But it was a lackluster and painful ride (I feel like my lack of kidney stones are solely thanks to PW lol) and I understand the need to let it go. RoL I'm...
