We just spoke to some friends of ours who live in the Orlando area and they’ve decided to book a room at one of the resorts rather than wait out whatever is coming at home. They said there were several there doing the same thing. Same is happening at Universal, lots of people on their subreddit saying locals are coming for rooms. Really telling when Orlando natives are this afraid of this. Wishing them all well and hopefully they will be able to return to intact homes.

For Disney's sake, hopefully the Cast Members filled up their vehicles ahead of time with gas, becuase that is going to have to be used, and many stations will be out or closed tomorrow.

Particularly a CM who needs to get home after 5PM.

The Call-ins will be unprecedented for this sort of thing.

If too many cast call out it is going to be challenging to operate ride attractions, dining, merchandise etc in the theme parks.

As they should be. Your life is not worth sacrificing for an employer.
