I have a few staff who are going stir crazy shielding. They’re all due their second vaccine dose soon (healthcare) and desperate to come back once that kicks in but I just can see it.

I would imagine you can order anything. I can’t think of any restaurants other than those that do family style or buffet that dictate what you can order.

To my knowledge it’s just Seaworld and Busch Gardens that do that kind of deal. Someone can correct me if even they don’t. Disney and Universal definitely don’t.

Yes true. If they gave a “they definitely won’t be open before” date at least some of us would know. The fact they haven’t gives me a little hope!

Yes but it’s not the same workers doing the 16 hour day (or 24 hours) so what’s the difference if you have 10 people doing 8am to 8pm and 10 people doing 8pm to 8am versus 20 people doing 8am to 8pm?

Fair enough. I suppose I just assumed people got days off.

I’d still like to know how many people would struggle to get vaccinated if not offered appointments overnight. I can’t see it being many.

Chicken Guy is great and the prices really reasonable for Disney.

It’s also worth looking at snack or side items on menus as often they’re things like Mac n cheese and a good size for lunch.

I think the QS credit was valued around £12.99 which means any upgrade cost is the difference between that and the dining plan of choice. It tends to go up by about £1 a year for adults.
