You can also find 10+ studies that show they don't work. If you want.

Believe the smart people...skip the google research

...don’t want to be accused of being unpatriotic

Yeah, tread carefully there, friend. You don't want to ignore the 3458.5th amendment of the Constitution that states people don't have to wear masks. Freedom! My rights!
In fact, I am starting to question the patriotism of anyone wearing pants...

You can find articles that vaccines cause autism, you can also find millions more that say they don’t.

Yes. Over here we’re quoted around 80% to protect others and 10% for yourself. Which is 10% better than nothing.

The IHME, the President's chosen model, found increasing mask use from the current 69% to 95% would result in 74,000 lives saved between October 15th and February 1st.

There's a special place in hell for anti-maskers

- Instead of progressing towards "normal," you may gradually see a rollout of "new permanent." For example, you might gradually see more virtual queues over the next few months.

New rumors about VQ at Smuggler's Run and Jungle Cruise suggest my speculation from last week was pretty accurate.

Assuming the rumor is true, and more attractions are getting virtual queues... the question is will the future be a combination of FP and VQ, or will VQ replace fastpass.
Of course, over time, virtual queues may become more "fastpass-like" -- Like perhaps the ability to to pre-book virtual queues.

This is why i don’t think park hopping will work, simply because you have to be right at park entrance for this to work and the 2 pm cut off for rise is not even to be any where with the current times.

Jungle cruise? why not Mine train or Space Mountain?

Because Jungle Cruise has been creating queue nightmares. Social distancing has really limited the ride capacity, there is no place to put the long line.

But I wouldn't rule out park hopping. Virtual queue for Jungle Cruise, Smugglers Run, etc -- those won't become the nightmare of Rise of the Resistance. They will more likely operate as the VQ at the Jimmy Fallon attraction at Universal -- You can hop into the VQ at almost any time of the day. There is plenty of ridership capacity.

This.

That’s why it was tested in Paris. A VQ should keep the lower capacity line within the physically available space.

I can’t believe I’m missing the simpler time of spreadsheets and 60 day FP bookings.

Park hopping is unlikely to return until reservations are no longer required. Of course, you can park hop right now. Just buy a ticket to each park.

Unfortunately, you can't even buy a ticket to each park. There is only one park pass reservation allowed per day per MDE account (unless Club 33 member or on a VIP tour).

I suppose one could, theoretically, make multiple MDE accounts in order to use the multiple tickets on the same day. I've heard that Disney is on the lookout for multiple accounts to prevent this, but I don't know how credible that info is.

I could see park hopping returning at some point before next spring. Pretty easy change to make in the reservation system. Just allow someone to reserve 2 parks instead of 1. Bigger problem is the capacity limits but I see that becoming less of a concern in Q1.

Remember when park hopping seemed difficult?

Remember when covid numbers were dropping?

 

[MrHappy]

Remember when covid numbers were dropping?

Yes. But my comment is about the reinstatement of park hopping.

 

[Sirwalterraleigh]

Yes. But my comment is about the reinstatement of park hopping.

Which probably doesn’t make sense when the covid numbers are causing everyone on the planet to limit interaction except in One Term Ron’s la la land, huh?
