News Magic Kingdom July 2020 reopening reports

It looks like they did a really good job pulling this together. I'm so jealous

They really did. Everyone was wearing their masks despite the fact that it was blazing hot here today, following social distancing, etc. It was really a strange experience to see hardly anyone in the park. This was Main Street when I left at 1:30...

So jealous Im guessing saturday will be a good indication of what it will be like in August when we arrive.

This was the longest wait I saw for an attraction, taken around 11am.

You’re right...saw that on the app and decided to stay away. That queue is the worst

 

[DCBaker]

It's true though - so many ducks!

It wasn’t even a 45 minute wait. Maybe 20 at most.

I saw somewhere that the capacity for the AP previews are half of what the capacity will be when it opens. Has anyone else seen this? Does that mean we can expect roughly double the wait times?

I hope lines don't average at 45 minutes or more after 7/11. I know there are probaby good reasons but everyone coming in the park at once makes me think the lines will be long at every ride. Are park tickets sold out beyond July yet?

Crowds seem light because everyone is in line for Splash merch

We come in august. Im gauging the heavy hitters may be 45, but still compared to normal august... 45 is better than 120

True. I had visions of 20 minutes or less in my mind

True. I had visions of 20 minutes or less in my mind

Im also hoping! Ill be watching closely, to try to develop a plan of attack for each time of day per park.

ill tell you though, if i see FOP at 45, im getting in that line all day long!

They don’t average 45 minutes now

That is not true

 

[milordsloth]

That is not true

Are we expecting opening day crowds to be similar to today? I'm assuming I'll have to wait and see. I really hope they don't have double the capacity.

Yes. You don’t have to hope. Capacity will not be doubled when they open. Not yet.

 

[milordsloth]

Yes. You don’t have to hope. Capacity will not be doubled when they open. Not yet.

Thank you!

That's my fear. It won't be this empty going forward, even if capacity is very very low.

 

[Mainahman]

Yes. You don’t have to hope. Capacity will not be doubled when they open. Not yet.

Makes me wonder if this will last into august? we have park days from the 10th to the 15th, and would be in heaven!
