1500 Loop Empty?
Grumpy and Grandma replied to emmedee's topic in General Camping Discussion and Questions
Since they have limited staffing we've heard that they are filling loops as needed instead of scattering people all over. if 2000 wasn't full there would be no reason to put people in 1500. Someone said that 700 was also empty last week IIRC. They did the same in the cabin loops. Our daughter and family were there and numerous loops were unused 2500 being one. and -
You sure it wasn't an ELK.. Moose aren't that far South. The moose's range extends north to about 72 °N latitude and south to about 40 °N latitude [93]. It occurs from Alaska south through the Rocky Mountain region to Colorado; east to Newfoundland; and south to New Hampshire, northern Wisconsin, and northern North Dakota

In April of last year it was announced that it would be a phased re-opening that was going to be presented to the County and State. SeaWorld and Walt Disney World approved by Orange County to reopen, dates await approval by DeSantis.May 27, 2020 Universal is still following the limited park occupancy too and they presented their plan first,so there has to be an underlying reason. They are still at 35-40% and Spring Break week they closed the gates at noon, 4 days in a row. Even many of the local restaurants are not using all the tables.

Actually both. They gave the County the steps they would follow in order to re-open and what would be done as this all progressed. The County had to approve it and then sent it to the State for approval. The same for DL, they had numerous meetings along with Universal and KBF in Calf to reopen at the end of last year to no avail. There is no way Disney is intentionally letting numerous Resorts sit unused if they could open. That would be an absolutely stupid business decision if they wanted, as Andrew said, new money there is too much demand as people have had enough of the CDC and Wash

Then what am I missing? There are complaints by people trying to book Resorts and DVC saying they get a message, "There are days during the dates selected with no Park Reservations available, please check other dates". That means they are not being given unlimited access or priority. Based on everything I read WDW is trying their best to give both AP and the short term guests balanced access. What else can they do?

As far as Florida AP and Florida Resident, we have had no problem getting park reservations at all since things opened up. We have the Weekday Select and I bought a 3 day FL resident for this weekend since DD is in town and we got reservations at MK for Mon (AP), HS and AK(3 day ticket) yesterday and today. It's obvious based on the crowds that people are still coming, even Pop Century, where DD is, was busy and DS was hopping pretty good Friday afternoon as both garages were open and Spring Break weekend all the lots were.

From Forbes. Disney will relax its restrictions on theme park employees’ appearances to include some visible tattoos, “gender-inclusive” hairstyles and other features, the company announced Tuesday, as part of a broader push toward inclusion and diversity at the company’s decades-old theme parks. https://www.forbes.com/sites/alisondurkee/2021/04/13/disney-theme-park-employees-cast-members-can-now-have-tattoos-and-gender-inclusive-hairstyles-for-first-time-ever/?sh=741922584818

Sorry, but I have no sympathy for the prima donnas who say "NO" because they aren't getting their "OLD" job back. Many years ago I changed jobs and took a cut in pay because cuts were coming. Best thing I ever did....the new position opened up a great opportunity and I never looked back.. -

Better than no job.....Their original position may not need to be filled at the moment. Gretchen mentioned "asst to Tigger", well Tigger isn't out meeting guests so that position doesn't need to be filled.
