News Magic Kingdom July 2020 reopening reports

[Sirwalterraleigh]

If there’s issues I have faith they’ll fix it. It’s day 1. Doesn’t mean we need to panic and say they should just close back up.

I agree...for once...and will give shakedown time and benefit of the doubt.

But the “cancel culture” drop wasn’t needed. And anything that goes down the hoax trail is wrong. It’s been proven wrong. Needs to stop. PSA

I follow her on twitter and she's actually been VERY excited about the parks reopening.

...just don’t

That’s some serious investigative journalism! I feel like this chick had her mind made up before she set foot on the property .

No need to roll eyes and be sarcastic. The video showed people close together and she wasn’t comfortable with it so she left.

My opinion is that if it not safe to open one theme park, then you can't convince me its safe to open the other.

Both CA and FL are in similar covid situations.

“Safe” is subjective at this point and that’s not going to change for a long time. Everyone acknowledges an inherent risk when going to the parks or anywhere in public these days. Do I feel that it is 100% safe and I have no chance of picking something up? No. Do I think it’s safer than most other public places in the state? Absolutely.

As any sane person would do.

Well...it’s exactly what I want...

Which Rule of Acquisition is that?

Wrong comic universe...

Watching the app for wait times trying to prepare for our trip in a few days. Anyone know why HM and POC are closed?

cleaning and disinfecting most likely.

I apologize for the statement. I more meant that people jump to conclusions extremely quick and panic over something that didn’t go 100% smoothly the very first day opening to standard guests. This is new to everyone and Disney will learn and correct.

she says she didn’t make it in the park but it looks like she did go past the turnstiles at least. Willing to bet if she actually walked onto Main Street there wouldn’t have been a crowd at all. And if she didn’t need to be in the guest services line, I guess it’s all a moot point.

Disney World is trending on twitter right now, and not for good reasons.

Yeah it is interesting to see more of a backlash today than at the start of the CM and AP previews. The parks have been open for 5 days now - today is nothing really different.

 

[larryz]

They can’t sustain the complex at those crowd levels...short of the $500 ticket and the $30 hamburger.

What, you mean they're going to discount the hamburgers?

 

[Sirwalterraleigh]

What, you mean they're going to discount the hamburgers?

Ahhhhh...I needed that...well played

What, you mean they're going to discount the hamburgers?

That's the price of the meat. Bread is extra.

Agree with you. I actually feel safer getting on a Southwest flight and spending time at Disney than I do hopping on public transport and spending a week in my office building here in Chicago.

Disney management needed to get those people through the gate instead of having them line up at guest relations. Worst case someone doesn’t have a valid ticket and enjoys a free day? That’s wayyyy better than allowing those images to get out on twitter and the news.

It’s like turning off the biometrics when things get crowded... sure people could cheet but the bigger issue is getting people through the gate and in the park.

 

[wdwmagic]

It seems like guest relations there was slightly caught by surprise with that demand. I'm sure this will be rectified promptly.

Eh, I’ll skip both for now.

This Is bad. Looks like a regular offseason day

I appreciate the clarifications and withdraw my complaint on instant replay. No foul

Just a obvious viewpoint, but our country has an obesity issue.
