Having to wear masks outside, no FPs, no parades/fireworks, limited restaurants. Will not be booking till those things return or there’s a date for when they will be back.

I would really like fireworks and fast pass back but we have flights booked for Sept and will go (if we can) with all of the current restrictions.

We would be happy in a hotel or villa with no park days but have no kids so only have to occupy ourselves

None of it bothers me enough to not want to go.

I'm sure it would still be great and a bad day in Florida is better than a good day here.

A soon as I can - I'm on that plane and on the way!

I haven't watched the Tim Tracker Family Channel (not happy with some of their videos from the past) in a while but I have watched others that seem to paper over the cracks you find reported on various forums.
I agree with this. They obvs claim to give unbiased opinions that reflect the truth however what their tolerance for the situation is will be different from mine and also who what’s to watch vlogs of people being critical? These vlogs are their job and therefore their income, they need the parks to be open and popular.

Disney wise they’ve removed so much and left prices the same. That doesn’t sit well with me at all.

Universal and the other parks seem to have removed very little so I’d be happier attending these parks for the ticket cost.

However, I’m not wearing a mask so for now it’s all irrelevant.

Not when it costs £2,000 for a family just to visit the parks. It’s okay if you are loaded

For us it’s character meets. My daughter absolutely loves to cuddle the characters. It brings her more joy than anything else. And although not a limited experience as such - I see wearing masks as a big issue as she cannot do it due to her additional needs.

Nothing to do with being “loaded” just down to personal preference and wanting to enjoy the experience for what it is in any guise that suits your taste.

Personally the more people that don’t want to go the better...makes it quieter for us when we get on the first plane to Orlando 🤣😆🤣

I'm certainly not loaded but I've seen plenty of vlogs showing how to make the most of the situation just now and it doesn't really seem that bad.
Masks are a pain but I could put up with them.
Restaurants - well quick service does me for the most part so that's not an issue but more will open anyway as time goes on.
No fireworks or parades is a shame but there are still random cavalcades and characters out and about. Luckily my kids would always rather ride than stand a watch a parade any day and characters were never a big thing for them.
Park hours seem to be increasing and with a bit of planning it's still possible to do most of the rides without too much waiting in queues.
I can understand if you have little ones that love to meet characters it might not be worth it but there still seems to be a good time there to be had (imo)
