While DLP has now dropped its mask mandate (indoors and out) and you can hug characters, it still requires guests to be fully vaccinated to visit the park in accordance with French law.

This may be part of the reason why full contact meet and greets were brought back there before the American parks.
France announced today that it is suspending the vaccine passes March 14th. DLP hasn't announced if they are going to follow the new French laws or maintain a higher standard.

I wouldn’t imagine this would be announced ahead of time. Like Paris, one morning the meet and greets will be “normal” again, at least for the fur characters.

There was no warning of Contact in MMFF. Boy! Was that nice to see at the first performance!!! Even if it was YT! I'm guessing FOF will have contact since MMFF broke the Ice?(No Frozen Pun)
Although I don't understand why FOTLK and more importantly BATB didn't get the "Contact Green Light" as soon as MMFF debeuted???

I would hope it is VERY soon so people don’t read this and then harass CMs. Surely a company with such a long history has enough control to coordinate such a statement from the CFO with actual execution in the parks so the Cast don’t have to deal with the repercussions.

Maybe you need a negative covid test to enter the cruiser?
Or maybe such a "Sophisticated" crowd would never have covid?
It’s a cruise. Per DCL intergalactic guidelines you need be vaccinated and produce a negative COVID test prior to boarding. 😉

Don’t get your hopes up about FoF.
Folk and BATB it’s a matter of them wanting to spend the money to go back in rehearsals, re teach and re block all of the shows again, meanwhile they have serviceable versions of both shows currently so I doubt it’s a priority to rush and spend money to implement those changes anytime soon.

Yeah... about that... Be prepared for lots of cuts and no partnering whatsoever. The double standards abound right now. Just go in expecting a really long cavalcade.
One would think that TDO would want to correct BATB's Finale ASAP! It's the weirdest show on Property right now! MMFF proved that TDO can go back to Pre COVID!


About FOF....I'm prepared for cuts but hopefully MK doesn't Fail FOF! When is Enough Enough??????


On the other hand, I haven't heard Dancers are back for TDL's Parades so maybe we're still in a better position?

Why would that matter?

Not sure exactly what you count as dancers, but have you heard that dancers are coming back in FoF? Also, I would like to point out that Merida was added to Adventure Friends Cavalcade.

Me??? I know Nothing! MOUACT 2021 did have Kristoff's Men and Santa's Elves, do those count? Or are those really Characters? The 50th Cavalcade has more dancers since Adventure Cavalcade started. I believe there was buzz on here that the Swan Court was cut from FOF but not thee Lost Boys? I'm hoping at very least for Mickey/Minnie(which should be in the Balloon together after MMFF IMO)'s Bingo Girls. The Whale Girls and Tangled Girls would be nice too! The only float missing should be Brave Correct????

Don't worry. I'm not testing you. I'm just curious what you've heard. Sounds like you know most of what to expect. There should be another minor float not returning as well.
