How early do you have to arrive to studios to make sure your in the park before 10? If I arrive at 9:30 or 9:45 this morning will I be in time to make it through security and ticket scan and in the park to get my rise reservation?

You have to remember that this merchandise has been sitting on shelves for 4 months, not being dusted or anything. Disney wants to start going through that product so they can restock shelves with fresh merch.

I’m really surprised at some of the negative reviews the parks experience is getting. I had the chance to visit Animal Kingdom and to be honest all I could think was “Wow, this is a very nice experience.” There was no wait for anything! Parking, temp check, security, ticket scan or ANY of the...

Right it has to be based on 25% of their average daily attendance. What is Epcot capacity where they actually have to close? Like 100,000? If so that’s 25,000 guests which is about what they normally average so they wouldn’t really be changing anything if that was the case.

The odds that you catch something are going to be exponentially higher from touching a ride vehicle that thousands of people have had their hands all over then a meet and greet.

I think it’s interesting that Disney announced a Food and Wine festival for Epcot once they open only to have the government put a shut down to alcohol sales. I understand it’s only if it’s more then 50% of your revenue which I’m sure it’s not for Epcot, but still a lot of people will probably...

CM's are a great source of revenue for the company. They are local and can make numerous trips and will buy merch and food. Obviously Disney wants to make sure that all DVC, AP and other ticket holders have first dibs but as mentioned earlier the CM's would make a great option to fill in any...

So I noticed bloggers have been taking pictures of tri circle d ranch and such. How are they getting in to these places? Are they taking a bus from Disney springs to the resort? I think the odds that they just had a reservation are unlikely and from my understanding you can not visit the resorts...

It doesn’t appear that way. It seems like the train has left the station and there is no stopping it. Disney makes no money with the parks closed and actually loses some when you factor in security, maintenance and custodial who have to be around to keep things running to a basic level. Now the...

Also wondering when bookings will be open for regular folk if I want to book a weekend getaway for a couple days at a resort?

I imagine they will just have "X's" on the ground in certain areas for groups. Just means less people in the prison room at a time and they just guide you to stand on the X. Or in some of the situations they could just bypass the room sequence. FoP for example, instead of having people stand in...

Is world of Disney still needing a virtual queue to enter or has the day 1 crowds tapered off enough that you can just walk in? @wdwmagic

Is it still closed to capacity?

Epcot in Food and Wine mode sounds like the exact opposite of what would work. A bunch of people walking around with plates of food and no masks on so they can eat it? Also, how does the skyliner get back in operation? Its constant moving with no time in between to go in and wipe down after...

Something to remember when talking about how many people are going to be allowed into the park. The statements coming out are "The parks will be capped at 20-30% capacity". Well, Epcot for example has a capacity of what? 100k? So if you cap it at 30% capacity, that is 30k guests, which is on par...

Probably the same person.

This all sounds like a previous “spirit” who used to post here. It was nice that he had finally left but I guess his ego got the best of him and he had to come back and post under a new alias.

Wasn’t Disney and universal just in a joint meeting with the mayor and local politicians to discuss all of these things like two weeks ago? I’m sure opening timelines and dates were discussed as it benefits all of them to have clarity in a situation like this. I’m sure it makes a more fun and...

Did I not see that SeaWorld was planning for June 1st as well? And LegoLand is also opening June 1st. So it would seem to me that everyone except Disney was on the same page.

Went to DS today around noon for a little more than an hour. Parking was no issue and the temperature checks were done very quickly by representatives from Advent Health. There was no wait, just walk up, they point the thermometer at your forehead and off you go. Very quick and easy. Every...
