The Fiend site isn't bad, but all of the other FB Disney sites are going crazy about reopening dates.
There have been some good flaming wars going on.
Disney is doing a disservice to everyone by not putting out an official statement on re-opening.
Even if it's one that says there is no planned date to reopen at this time, which at this time is the truth.
All of the blogger web sites rile up people with clickbait headings about speculations on opening dates.
I know that Chapek said on that WESH interview that there are no planned dates, but I guess it's too hard for a lot of people that only get their news from FB posts and blogs to read real news articles.

I wouldn't be suprised.
Smart of them to make parking free.
"Face coverings will be required of all visitors, as will a temperature check upon arrival. If you test 100.4F or higher, you will not be admitted to Universal CityWalk."
I'll be curious to see how that works.  I'm going to assume the temp check will be at the very far end right by the garage. Otherwise between the heat of FL to begin with, and the hike from the garage to City Walk (unless they get all the moving belts working for a change) I'm pretty sure my temp would be at least that high on a good day in November.

No problem!  Disney has already rolled out their supercute line of masks. Let the #DisneyFace hashtags commence...  😎
Especially when they're trying to sell you something.

Not to mention that actual medical experts hired by our own government are advising against the rush to reopen everything. 
It is amazing to me how many fools there are who choose to listen to untrained demagogues over scientists and medical experts.

The problem with the face covering is it doesn't work well with their Instagram photos.

I think this dead horse has been beaten enough!
wear a mask or don’t wear a mask. 
who freakin cares!
it’s pretty simple.
If Disney requires you to wear a mask and you don’t want to..don’t go!
And if Disney doesn’t make everyone wear a mask and you think they should than don’t go!
No one on this board is going to change anyone’s mind about this debate.
And I think those of you that want to keep beating this dead horse should take it to the debate thread!
 
 

I'm sure legal departments all over are drafting coronavirus waivers for all kinds of businesses. Heck I'm on the board of an animal rescue group and we're having to come up with one for volunteers that interact with the public.
I have to believe that the next wave of class action lawsuit ads on TV will start with, "Did you or someone you love get COVID-19?..."

I'm not arguing government mandates in people's individual communities here - that's not what we were even talking about.  The mask requirement at Costco or Disney or any other private company is not coming down from the government. As for the whole "stop being a scared sheep who believes the hype" thing... I'm not touching that argument in an internet forum with a 10' socially-distanced pole. People can decide for themselves who/what sources of information they think are credible enough to believe and what level of caution is appropriate for them and their family, and proceed accordingly. And while I certainly don't know everything (or even close), I do know that I will never convince someone to change their mind or consider another point of view by typing on a keyboard.
What I do believe is that a bazillion dollar corporation like Disney is not sacrificing hundreds of millions of dollars of their bottom line because they're buying into any sort of hype of unfounded fear.  If they made all their business decisions based on popular opinion or social media, plenty of ideas they've put in place over the years never would have made it off the drawing board. 
My point here was just to say that if a private company tells you that you must do XYZ to enter their establishment (shirts, shoes, masks, whatever...), that is their right, just as it is ours to choose whether or not to go there and abide by their rules. You can boycott them if you like, also your choice/right. No one is entitled to access to Disney.
 

Toilet paper, sanitizing wipes, bleach, flour, yeast and any kind of meat.
Annnnnnnd...... go!

I believe I posted that in a thread on here. I know I posted it on my Facebook Business page. 

For a day or so after they announced that a full lockdown of the booking system hadn't been completed. 

I will also add they told travel agents any further cancellations will be done on a week by week basis the way they are currently. 

Done...

Obviously you feel strongly about this situation as an anti-mask and getting life back to normal side.
And others feel just as strongly supporting the wearing of a mask and erring on the side of caution.
Carrying this thread on without it being directly related to Disney isn't going to do anyone any good and end up causing hurt feelings.
If Disney says masks on and someone doesn't want to wear one, then they don't have to go. 
Same as people saying that Disney is too $$$, if you don't want to pay don't go.
And Disney will need to enforce their rules (whatever they decide on).
 

I'm actually on my way to Costco now, does anyone need anything? 

Holy crap.
This is just as bad as the comments on the Disney Parks Blog.
What a sad state of affairs. So many people brainwashed by those currently in charge to disregard science and even common sense. 
 
Disney would be crazy to try to open theme parks in this atmosphere.

They can purchase the official flexible Drinking Around the World Straw (DAWS) for the low low price of $19.99 so they sip and stroll with masks still on.

I'm going to keep my nice, peaceful Monday morning intact and not read the comments, but based on the craziness I see on social media in general, I can very well imagine what they are.
But hey, it's a heckuva lot easier to keep capacity down if a bunch of people take themselves out of the running!

There have been multiple cases like that at Costco after they implemented their new policy; not to mention the case at a Family Dollar store where a security guard that was shot and killed. All over people being told they needed to wear a mask to shop at a private company.
I don't understand why people are losing their damned minds over what amounts to temporary measures intended to keep us all safe, including (and maybe especially) the people showing up to work in these places - which right now amounts to risking your health for the sake of your job.
You don't see people flipping out and screaming obscenities at employees over "no shirt, no shoes, no service" policies.  Right now companies are just asking that, for the time being at least, in addition to your shirt and shoes, you put on a mask.

This is the key.  Disney needs to increase security and more importantly, finally give the them the ability to enforce the rules.  I have friends who are in security and often the path taken is to minimize disruption to the gust rather than strictly enforcing the rules.  That is what needs to change with this.  If you won't wear a face mask they escort you out of the park; no second chance.

That was good entertainment. Especially the lady saying she spends $10k a year there, does she not realizes that’s like nothing to Disney 😂

The comments are great on that article.  I would wear a mask in a crowded place simply to not chance getting sick while on trip. Its like wearing shoes...you don't plan on stepping on anything sharp but if you do its nice to wear them. 
In fact, thats my new fight! Shoes are against my rights!
