Not sure where seen but this is a detailed account of what I read (take it for what it's worth):
- There was enough space at Best Friends for every dog at Ft. Wilderness
- Guests who were not checking out were told to take their pet there
- All RVs were to go to MK parking lot, NOTHING left in campground
- Guests would be given resort room
- Guests would be reimbursed for cost of the kennel
We thought it was completely appropriate! Our team name was "Florida is Closed". We didn't feel it was in bad taste since we have a house that may be under water by the weekend.
I am not a wing person. I don't like to work hard for little meat ... wings, ribs etc. I do love their burgers but tonight tried one of their new items, finally real chicken fingers. Good.
- Should the boxes be free - no.
- These guests have no choice at the moment, not in cost, not in what is in the box so let's no also overprice it.
- Now that I have seen more photos it looks like some are getting a really nice sandwich and some are getting two pieces of white bread with paper thin turkey - yet both paying the same price. Not cool!
- Guests are paying for overpriced hotel rooms that they can't even use the hotel amenities, not getting housekeeping, etc.
- We all get that this is mother nature and not Disney's fault, but this is not the time to line your pockets simply because these folks have no alternative.
- I think a fair price would have been $7-8 for the box.
Based on what guests are experiencing, what Disney didn't do communication wise and from what I've heard of their communicating to CMs .... I'm not so sure Disney is working as a well oiled machine when things go off course. The most important thing you can do is communicate, especially in emergency.
[TOO MANY TO QUOTE]
I think there has been some confusion regarding the "ride out" CMs at the parks. I don't think that any of us meant that the parks were completely empty and void of humans. I think we all knew there would be some crew there and they could make the morning walk through.
I think what some of us were saying is that
if the curfew is not lifted and still in place Saturday morning, there would not be the full team there with all those necessary to open, test and go through check list of every attraction at every park. Let alone the transportation folks. With AK and MK both set to open at 8 am - it may be hard pressed to meet that. I know there can be work permits but this is not a common thing and a curfew is rarely engaged so there may be no protocol at the moment. Big unknown.
I think some of us are being realistic that even if bulk of storm is passed, the parks could possibly face delayed opening depending on the curfew in place. It is an unknown right now and I'd rather be prepared. Like I would switch FP+ to the afternoon if it were me.
AND FINALLY, took around 80 pages but I see "pot stirrers" have arrived. Don't feed in to it, ignore it. We need to stay focused on sharing info on parks, hotels, food, transportation etc that helps all through the process. It doesn't help respond to these posts.
