News Disney mask policy at Walt Disney World theme parks

[Sirwalterraleigh]

Can someone translate this?

yes...in disneyspeak:

we love that we can drop the pretense and get on peddling our stuff 24/7 in the extreme heat...
...but we may hold out longer cause we really only want the vax crowd here...



more to follow...wishes, magic, dreams, wonder!!

The plexiglass anywhere I go looks like a germ factory.

It’s hard to keep it clean unless all the action is in the other end during the third period

 

[CosmicRays]

See the Pooh Queue?

Is that what people are smearing on them now?

You mis quoted me but I’ll allow it

Delightful news all around.

All I want is Top of the World opened and Tables in Wonderland back. Give me those two things and I'll be happier than a pig in...

a blanket?

They’re working on it. Timeline TBD.

Yep, like I said. Surprised they confirmed it so soon. The directive came right from Chapek today.

I’m surprised he came on so strongly as well. I wonder if anyone briefed him beforehand

Oh, he had rehearsed how he’d say it. It wasn’t off the cuff.

Why would this take more then a week?

 

[danv3]

I vote for removal of plexiglass next after masks. Little reason for delay since it doesn't really do anything for Covid anyway!

Bureaucracy.

Chapek tells WDW leadership to do this. They tell their underlings to make a plan, which they then work on in committee and present to leadership, who then suggest updates. Then the whole thing goes to other committees with multiple levels of approval. Then they have to actually roll-out. Multiple levels of approval there. Alert marketing. Multiple levels of approval.

Universal is just like, “make a sign and put up 500 of them. Update the website.” And it’s done.

Universal’s way sounds better.

You forgot check with legal, run plan through legal, run marketing through legal

I’d prefer a hybrid. Checks and balances are good for safety, consistency, and ensuring all areas of a huge resort are on the same page, but Disney has too many levels.

You‘d be shocked at the process to get a lightbulb changed. It doesn’t stay burnt out because no one cares. It’s the convoluted process to get it changed out.

Such as?

Wow. That was FAST.
