Good to hear first hand how it is
I watched theme park world wide video and he made it look lovely and quiet
This was a few weeks ago though
Would you say we d be disappointed after only doing the Florida parks?

Especially as I am not really bothered by the whole COVID thing usually
Today was the start of their sales so a lot of people that like to bulk buy to make profit on ebay would have been there as soon as the doors open.

Yaz and Ash (of Magical Day Apparel) have been there the past 3 days and have been documenting it on their Instagram (and vlogs to be up soon), doesn't look too bad from what they've been experiencing? I'm not too worried about my trip in 2 weeks time but maybe that's just because I'm used to super busy weekends anyway!

What I would say is that if you are a bit anxious about the whole thing then a theme park probably isn't the best thing for you to go to. Watch the Tim tracker Florida vlogs, he is so conscious about everything Covid related that he can’t enjoy himself and his vlogs are actually quite depressing at the moment.

Yes we should all be able to go and feel safe but if you are worried how others around you will be acting then it may be better to give it a miss this year.

Looking at the wait times it seems to be the same sort of levels as a normal off peak day in November

The trouble is that can feel busy at times and if they are queuing into the main park as it were due to social distancing in them I can see why people are panicked

For what its worth I think it will get quieter in next few weeks as people will not want to take the risk of going if UK add France to quarantine list

Similar pattern for their other videos. Pleasure Beach looked really quiet, and we went a week later and you could barely move in Nick Land.

A lot of people on social media are invited and paid by Disney. It’s hard to know what to believe.

It's looking more and more likely France will be added to the quarantine list soon (from what I've been reading), so don't think many brits will be going if that happens.

Remember all those ‘busy/quiet’ threads that crop up every year in all the forums (particularly WDW)? Someone complains it’s busy, someone else posts they were there the same day and it was quiet.

So much depends on your perception of normal crowd levels, and where you happened to be at what time.

No need for conspiracy theories.
