This is an understatement...it's a complete ####show. We went down there thinking we might sneak our 3 year old in for a trip to TRex (I hate that place by the way, but the kids love it) and we didn't even get out of the car. WAY too many people for us.
FWIW the park hasn't changed a single policy as of today. That's what I'd be concerned with. The surrounding areas are still pretty ghost townish as well, but that part might change in the next month. I don't see Disney changing anything drastically for the rest of this year, but who knows. Avoid the parks on weekends and I think you'll be fine.
Good, bad? I'll be there in 2 weeks. I hope my whole "Lets got now since there are no wait times" plan doesn't back fire!Anyone look at the wait times today?
We'll be hitting WDW, Epcot and AK Tuesday-Thursday. Disney Springs on Monday.
Oh.... yeah.... be prepared to be pissed then..... especially if any of your day's are on a weekend. Weekday shouldn't be a big deal. But they've been having significant problems with splash mountain for various reasons
Disney is up to about 50% capacity now versus the 20-25% they were when they first opened. And it sounds like it’s definitely starting to feel more crowded with wait times definitely creeping up.The Commish said:
huh...go figure. You'd think they'd make a major announcement on this. It's not been reported at all around here. I'm kind of shocked actually.
If the site they went to was Davids Dvc they are safe. I dont know anything about others.jb1020 said:
I imagine they were trying to mitigate going from 25% straight to 50%. It didn’t take long for folks to figure it out. Glad I went when it was 25%. Totally worth it.
My parents def dropped the ball. Their involvement ion this this whole family share thing is laughable. I'm the most involved, so when #### goes wrong they point the finger at me.
have a blast. I just saw the calendar entry for my conference pop up yesterday and I was
My mind still flip flops, but we're fully committed and committed to having a good time.
I thought Poly was closed for renovationsMy mind still flip flops, but we're fully committed and committed to having a good time.
I have a neighbor that's a big Disney guy and he went in June. Said it was the best time they ever had.
I'll update everyone from the Poly Pool.
There are some things closed....the big lobby, O'Hana, some rooms. I think everything else is a go.I thought Poly was closed for renovations
ah...ok...hope you have a good trip. Weather's supposed to be pretty nice next week from what I've seen
We'll be down there on Friday with some friends visiting from Indy.
wow...that's great news actually....we were down that way a month or so ago and it was an absolute ####show.
You can't walk around eating or drinking. You have to be stationary and socially distancing off to take your mask off to eat/drink.
Have funLess than a week until my wife and I leave. We're leaving Friday, will arrive in Florida on Saturday. Pretty psyched since this is the first time my wife and I will be on vacation by ourselves (well for more than a day or two) since our son was born. That was 21 years ago.
I told my wife when we went, when we go back we are not doing lunches that the snacks are fine. The lunch food to me was pretty bad anyway. I'd rather just do the snacks and then eat dinner.
We had to wake up at 5:30 the day we went to HS because I needed that ROR boarding pass. I dont say this often, but very happy we got up early and got it bc it is awesome. But its not an optimal way to get people on a ride that is down A LOT
We looked into having a sit down one day at Liberty Tree and it was like $62 per adult! Screw that.
We were there in January as well. Our day at Hollywood Studios they had the water fountains running in the morning to stop possible freezing it was so cold. Slinky dog didn't start til later in the day due to temps so my kids missed out on that. By the time they started it up the lines were insane the rest of the day.
That was such an incredible ride. I kind of knew what it was, but not really. We all sort of went into it blind. I hesitate to admit it, but it was my birthday so my wife and I tried to have an extra fun day and ate some weed gummies. We took them standing in line for Smugglers Run, which was pretty cool too. The best part of that ride was walking in an feeling like it was the real Millennium Falcon. The ride itself was fun, but a little hectic with a 10, 8 and 5 year old controlling things.
You, and your entire party, have to be in the park. At 10am and 2pm they release the boarding passes. You have to have your phone and get to the Disney app and hit the join button. There is a new sections for virtual queues. And it fills up in the blink of an eye.
Thanks. So you don't have to be there before the park opens? Just inside the park by 10am?
I don't think it matters. The way it was while we were there was passes get released at 10am and 2pm.
Much better process. I was there week one and we got to the front gate at 5:45 AM and there were already 2K people there. Madhouse
This stuff is still my overall beef with Disney. We stayed at one of the nicer resorts, 7 days, 2 days at Hollywood and we were very lucky to be able to ride their big attraction. Seems like there should be more of a guarantee for people like me that stay on site.
I remember reading Disney was considering some derivative of fast pass preference “at a price“ (for $$ or onsite 5* hotel) for 2021 But Covid got in the way. It’s a “bad look” to offer a white glove experience for $$ But it’s already happening in a lot of other ways.
