Currently, you need either a mobile order or ADR for Boardwalk (or any Disney resort) to get past the guard if you are not staying at that resort and you are arriving by car/Uber. I don't believe Swan/Dolphin is requiring the same (or at least they aren't validating it), but the walk from there is about the same distance as the walk from Speedway. The walk from Speedway is on a path as well.
FWIW, we got to MMRR around 9:30. It was a posted 45 minute wait, took us about 30 minutes. If you enter the park while your family is still parking the car, presumably they will need to catch up with you in the MMRR queue. Depending on where you're at in the queue, it can be tricky and CMs seemed hesitant/annoyed when people tried to do this, I think from the social distancing aspect. Frankly, if you're ok with waiting possibly 30-35 minutes, you'll be fine if you get to the lot when it opens around 9am. Not everyone is rushing to MMRR at opening. There's a good chunk that goes towards Slinky Dog, many go to Smuggler's Run, and some over to RnRC/TOT.
Possibly. Or... They silently increase awhile ago and just announced it today to help balance the bad news. I think others have said, or I read elsewhere, that as they've added more reservations, they've opened up more areas. Hopefully greater availability means shows coming back, but I'm not counting on that with the recent layoffs.
I wouldn’t hold your breath on that one.
It's a fine line, Disney is a business and needs to make money, all the safety guidelines are not only still in place but we can definitely say they have become more strict at enforcing them, we are headed into what's arguably the busiest time of the year, they already have expanded hours and we might see further extensions, so i think it's still a good balance
I know... more of a wish for those who lost their job to be able to come back to work. This virus can't be over soon enough.
I guess Thanksgiving week will be the tell.Totally understand. Hence the mixed feelings.
I do wonder how much 10% more capacity "feels" in the grand scheme of things. Is it even noticeable?
I think some has to do with actual demand, like i said this is the busy season coming up, also they need the money, there's no doubt about it, DL still closed its a huge issue. I believe we'll be fine as long as cm continue to enforce and guest continue to adhere
merged you to the existing operational thread
I agree, i think we'll see extension of hours but is a real shame they don't have the shows to ro gobble up the crowds
