News Round Up 2021

Disneyland Resort Theme Parks to Welcome Back Guests from Outside California Beginning June 15
Plus, Theme Park Reservation Window Expands, Allowing More Time to Plan Your Visit

HUGE NEWS! The dancing is working!

Woohoo! Not that I’m planning a DL trip any time soon, but it’s another step toward normal. And another place for people to go to get their Disney fix, so they don’t all have to go to WDW

I want to plan a trip to DLR...but I don't like to plan that far out in advance, so the extended window isn't great for me. I want to wait until the Avengers Campus has been open a few months too.

 

[Traitor Sam]

A nice change to official policy, even though they’ve been ignoring it all along

 

[OSUZorba]

Great. The majority of the people who come here are looking for valuable information but that gets taken away because of the acts of a small minority. I would hope the bickering that goes on in the real world could keep away from the one place we all love, Disney, but I guess that’s too much to hope for. The world doesn’t have to be an argument.

The most hateful forum I go is a cruise forum, I hate it there, but it is the best place for RCL information. I go to politics forums daily, and they don't hold a candle to the cruise forums.

Never understood how people could be so hateful on a vacation forum. The moderation there also only cares if you post about a competitor, otherwise it's open season. Mention a competitor, though, and you're on vacation.

Finally!!! Just made my reservations and I'm so happy!

Mears changed their website for Mears connect. Used to say reservations May 2021... now says Summer 2021.

This is the news thread, not the sweet and happy thread. That stuff should be posted on the community board.

Relax!

Last thing I heard is that he finally went off to do something with his life.

He did a great job. You seem to be a little cranky.

The service is there. Only thing that couldn't be there is determining price point.

People Stop Reporting People.

No need to get this thread closed, come on everyone.

Or the marketing wasn’t done or if they intend to keep any Disney branding on the buses they haven’t reached a deal yet...

something is holding them back.

This bolded right here is pretty telling. Wow. You’re speaking for all people here now? Many of us have been on the news round up threads for years

Also, there’s absolutely nothing doom and gloom about pointing out realities - for example, that this glitch has been happening a while and might not mean anything.

There seems to be a mix up around here these days between negativity and reality. It’s very unfortunate that this thread is seemingly no longer open to different perspectives. People who chime in with (usually fact based) opinions are often treated are treated like debbie downers etc.

A perfect example is when you started an “official earnings call thread” as an offshoot of the news thread, then changed the new thread’s topic after 3 pages of responses. When the “official earnings call thread” was changed into the “hopes and dreams” thread because some were sharing realistic expectations and people didn’t want to hear it. People from this thread were going after any posts sharing realistic expectations as negativity.

I'd wager its a glitch, as everything is pointing to a new paid version. However, everything pointed to Brazil happening so......

Weird that pointing out the infamous WDW IT shortcomings is negative now.

It's fun to be excited for an upcoming trip, we all get that. To me, this thread has always been about keeping up with changes and rumored upcoming changes. Giving opinions on both sides as to the effect of the upcoming changes. I never really looked at it having either a positive or negative vibe.

They don't have to know about disney branding to open reservations. Those are not related,.

 

[MickeyWaffles]

Deleted.

Hmm, interesting. Why is that?

 

[Heather07438]

It’s fine to point out realities and everybody’s free to share their view. Sometimes it gets overbearing the need for people to police conversations like ‘you’re not allowed to talk about that unless you do it in this certain precise way.’
