That's the thing though. People do realize that if you are staying at say the Boardwalk, it will be a 15 min walk back to your room from the exit at Epcot(or less time or more based on each person's walking speed). 15 to the car isn't awful especially if they started timing from when they got off the monorail, it's not like the tram is right at the bottom of the ramp nor does it show up right on time.
Ok thank you!! We are staying at fort wilderness so we will ride the boat to MK but the other parks we will drive to
That makes no sense considering what is operating inside the parks.
That 15 minute walk is absolutely gruesome in the August heat after spending an entire day at Magic Kingdom. - And I'm 22 in physically good health.
I'm tired of this argument. No it wasn't. It's not any different than any of the rides at the parks.
The attractions are what draws people to the parks. The trams don't exactly do that.
I agree. When we rode the bus from pop to mk every seat in the bus was filled. There was plexiglass in between seats and they had the emergency hatch on the top open for ventilation but that was it. So if you are telling me that was safer than a tram, I really don't know how any of this works
Oh they are filling all seats on the bus now? I hadn’t heard that but makes sense considering increased crowds.
It makes perfect sense and is the primary reason trams are not operating. There’s a big difference between how the trams operate and how everything in the park operates. It has nothing to do with budget cuts but that’s certainly a positive result, just not the reason at all.
And what is that difference?
The issue is not about the guests ON the tram. Plexi or loading every other row will not solve the issue. Social distancing IS the reason trams are not operating. You can think and argue otherwise but you would be wrong.
They did that morning. And it was back in January. I honestly didn't care. Everyone was masked etc but I think that from the "safety" reasoning of the trams not running it doesn't make sense. It obviously a budget issue.
How is social distancing different with the trams?
I’m not making a point I’m telling you the facts. It should be pretty clear what the issue is if you read my post and use common sense
You just keep saying “it’s different” - without ever explaining how it’s different.
But If that's the reason, how are they filling busses to capacity? At least trams are outside and very well ventilated.
They are not filling buses to capacity. They are filling every seat. But that is roughly half of pre Covid capacity and there is extensive use of dividers in the buses. Also as I have said the concern with the trams is not the trams themselves.
Ok I see the point. They are not to "capacity" but every seat is filled. You sit directly next to other people. The closest have been to any other human during the pandemic was on the Disney bus. I still think that even at half capacity the busses are much less socially distanced than the trams.
