WDW Reopening Estimates

[CastAStone]

So, any one with any new predictions on when the parks will re-open back up?

July 7th. No inside info. That's my latest prediction.

I'm still saying mid July maybe later. Depends on what happens with the NBA.

I think July 1 is optimistic. Even if WDW could, it would be right before Independence Day. If I were them, I would wait until Sunday, July 5 at the earliest with the holiday behind them before reopening.

I'm now thinking just after the last cancellations that happened, June 14 (Flag Day). Maybe a soft opening period the full week after Universal's opening.

Legoland is like the inside of a baby’s diaper. But not just any baby’s diaper—the one left on a bench outside Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster last August.

So you had to showcase the lack of cleanliness of the park you prefer to somehow show it is superior to the smaller park?

I wouldn’t be surprised if they let the MLS and NBA do their thing with no parks and just open nearly everything (no capacity restrictions, no social distancing, nighttime spectaculars, parties/food and wine, etc) the Tuesday after Labor Day. (Martin and other brits that’s the first Monday in September.)

I'm going with Monday July 6th for some type of phased re-opening (maybe a soft opening for CM's sooner). But who knows at this point.

First, have the leagues given their OK to play there? Second, I would be surprised that Disney would let Universal have that much time to be open before WDW opens. I honestly don't think it will be Labor Day, but sooner.

ESPN (read TWDC) is heavily reporting that the NBA will be, MLS rumors are less direct.

I don't know where else to ask this..we currently have a trip scheduled for middle of November and just because why not in case everything works out perfectly I made reservations for Tusker House and Cinderella's Royal Table- I'm assuming character meals are going to see radical changes this year, if they even continue?

I was reading a lot of posts earlier in the thread talking about how easing lockdowns will lead to a spike in cases. Im not taking a stance one way or another. From Fox Business:

I wonder what facilities they'll be using. I know they'll use the arena for the NBA games, but where else?

JP Morgan, why is a bank doing a health study and do you think they have an inherent bias?

I don't know if there's been any official announcements regarding character meals, but yes, the current rumor is character meals are going to be one of the experiences that will be gone for awhile.

The rumblings have been that they would use Grand Destino and if needed Riviera

Thanks. That's what I figured. Heck I was surprised they were even allowing reservations to still be made..

Same prediction: JUNE!

OK. I don't know why they would keep the parks closed if those were the facilities being used.

 

[Touchdown]

OK. I don't know why they would keep the parks closed if those were the facilities being used.

They would also open resturants and golf courses exclusively to them. WDW is a leader for this plum contract because they are promising no public interaction.
