  3. I had read the reports from the financial experts that Disney may not open this year as PGHfiend had posted. I had also seen a couple more that their plans are to stay closed for 6 months. There were also other reports form "insiders" that they will be opening May1, June 1, July1, throw a dart at a date and see what comes up. Until Disney makes an announcement no one will know. And something to think about, if the parks do open, who knows what they will be like. Maybe some or all of these, temp screening, mandatory masks, facial recognition (instead of fingerprints),
  4. Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis appointed nearly two dozen lawmakers and business leaders to form a task force to work on re-opening the state's economy. The task force announced Monday includes: • Jeanette Nuñez, Lieutenant Governor of Florida • Jimmy Patronis, Florida Chief Financial Officer • Ashley Moody, Florida Attorney General • Bill Galvano, President, Florida Senate • Jose Oliva, Speaker, Florida House of Representatives • Sen. Wilton Simpson, President-Designate, Florida Senate • Rep. Chris Sprowls, Speaker-Designate, Florida House
  5. From Inside the Magic site https://insidethemagic.net/2020/04/closed-disneyland-video-tm1/ Follow the link for the video It can be hard to imagine and accept it, but the Disneyland Resort has now officially been closed for more than an entire month. The gates remain locked, construction is at a standstill, and the streets are empty. But how does the park look after being closed for so long? Well, we found a video to answer just that. YouTuber @JustinScarred took it upon himself to stop by the Happiest Place on Earth during a leisurely stroll around Anaheim, an
  6. Looks like they're concentrating on builds that will make them $$. There's plenty of smaller projects they could be doing while staying in compliance with county ordinances like getting that castle painted and fixing the Haunted Mansion!

  8. There were earlier reports that Universal has gone forward with construction at all of their parks especially the new one at Orlando. And they are still working on Reflections
  9. https://www.wesh.com/article/video-disney-universal-empty-coronavirus/32159921 LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. — Aerial video of Central Florida’s theme parks provides a stunning look into the empty attractions. Walt Disney World and Universal closed in mid-March because of the spreading new coronavirus. It’s unknown when they may reopen.
  10. Someone else had posted about the new permits being filed, but I couldn't find the post to add this to it. The lodging industry is taking a beating thanks to the global pandemic, but one of the few positive segments may point to the future of Disney hotels. Economy extended-stay hotels with kitchenettes and other residential-style amenities saw only a 14% drop in March compared to the nearly 49% drop across the industry as a whole. This may explain why Disney is moving forward with their Reflections resort at Walt Disney World, despite the souring global economic outlook.

Now he’s reasserting control and reimagining Disney as a company with fewer employees and more thermometers. The Walt Disney Company turned franchises like Marvel and “Star Wars” into the biggest media business in the world, and last fall it was putting the finishing touches on the image of a storied character: its chief executive, Bob Iger. In late Septembe
  12. Well there are plenty of out of work people in that area. But they may not want to work for low wages, and they may not meet Disney standards
  13. April 8, 2020, 10:05 PM · The Tokyo Disney Resort announced today that it will not reopen April 20, as earlier planned. In a statement released on the Oriental Land Co. website, the owner of the Tokyo Disney Resort said that a determination about an opening date for Tokyo Disneyland and Tokyo DisneySea will not be made until mid-May. The Tokyo Disney parks closed in late February, with plans to open in the middle of March. But the resort extended the downtime and now has extended it again, this time with no planed reopening date. Japan earlier this week declared a month-long sta

  15. click to enlarge As of this writing, it's been over 500 hours since I last set foot inside a theme park. That's the longest I've gone without since moving to Orlando almost 24 years ago. I'm far from the only attraction junkie jonesing for a Fantasyland fix, judging by the recent flood of #HomemadeDisney viral videos, featuring fan-made ride re-creations. As much fun as that low-tech social media trend has been, I recently discovered a high-tech substitute for my attractions visits with the help of an old friend and a new toy, as the worlds of Minecraft
  16. I called this morning before this came in my email, but did call that VIP # For my pay by month. It answered as that line, then routed me over to the regular reservation line twice. The first time they transferred me to the VIP line and it looked me right back to the reservation line. The second time the CM stayed on the line when she transferred me and took my name and email. After 45 minutes the VIP answered, said I understand you wanted the Second option. I said yes, he asked for both passes, again yes and it was done. 45 minute wait and 1 minute to take care of it. I was g
  17. There was a FB post early in February showing someone making masks out of folded, pleated, paper towels and rubber bands stapled on to go over your ears. I'm hoping it was just a joke, but the way things are going you never know.....
  18. But it still hasn't stopped the flood of FB posts asking when the parks will open, and the others whining because they miss Disney soooo much and can't stand not being there. I like Disney also, but geez folks get a life! Be happy you and your family are safe, don't have the virus, have food, a place to live, a job and TP!
  19. Looks like Universal goofed Stay-at-Home Order Scuttles Universal Orlando's Reopening Plans Just in case anyone thought it might happen, the Universal Orlando Resort's plans to reopen on April 20 pretty much just disappeared. Florida's governor has issued a 30-day "stay at home" order for the state, starting tonight (4/2) at midnight. That order would preclude Universal Orlando from opening its theme parks during the month of April. Last month, after initially announcing that its parks would close through the end of March, Universal extended the closure through April
  20. Some hospitals in NYC got Yankees ponchos. Someone posted at least it wasn't a Mets poncho
  21. Isn't that in the same area they bought some late last year?
  22. It's about to get real in the Sunshine State (and it's about time) Coronavirus in Florida: Gov. DeSantis will issue a statewide 'stay-at-home' order All Floridians will be told to remain in their home except for "essential services." 1:20 p.m. (April 1) Governor DeSantis announced Wednesday he will issue an executive order to enact a statewide 'stay-at-home' order. When the order is put into effect, all Floridians will be told to remain in their homes except for "essential services." The Department of Homeland Security's official list of essential servi
  23. Not to mention all of the construction fencing that would need to be relocated and access roads/paths opened over to the barn that would miss all of the construction.
  24. Well the Star Wars hotel is a lot further along then Reflections so if they stopped that I would guess we will be seeing construction fences for a long long time. What about the new horse barn?
  25. No dates, but this seems to be one of the more factual/sane story about the parks. Last week saw Universal Parks announce a reopening date of April 19, then a few days later, as pressure mounted for Disney to acknowledge their April 1 reopening was unlikely, the Mouse confirmed their U.S. parks will be closed indefinitely. Now, with the latest models showing Coronavirus peaking in the nation just days ahead of the published reopening date at Universal, it’s clear the April 19 reopening will have to be pushed back. A lockdown in Orange County must also be considered when lookin
