What's going on October 9-16 where DHS is blocked out to resort guests and ticket holders? But AP holders have access to all parks October 13-15? I've never seen it where AP holders get the better deal, even for several days.

'Columbus Day Weekend'.
In the U.S., a three day weekend for many.
A quick hop to a favorite travel location is a common pastime for many.
Basically, the last 'long weekend of fun with the kids' folks in the Northeast can have before the cold weather hits later in October.

↩ replying to wdwmagicI love the show.
But, it shouldn't be returning. Singing with a mask on is like coughing with mask on -- you should still cover your mouth. And I doubt the singing audience will do so.

↩ replying to WondersOfLifeand that's why the fans love the guy. AND it gives hope for the future of the parks having someone like that in charge of the whole division of the company.

↩ replying to MisterPenguinThe singing audience is required to wear masks, yes.
Frozen Singalong is Disney’s safest show to reopen. Minimal people onstage, and it’s a pretty decently sized theatre for distancing.

↩ replying to WondersOfLifeNo. It is not.
There are thousands of churches keeping their congregations from singing, even when wearing masks because singing expels a lot more aerosols than talking. The plosive consonants of singing is equivalent to coughing, and singers don't cover their masked faces when singing. Plus, it's a lot of people all continuously taking deep breaths and belting out plosive after plosive.
Early superspreader incidents were church choirs.
In my diocese, churches will not be singing Silent Night or other carols this Christmas so as not to encourage the congregation to join in with the secluded soloist.
It. Is. Not. Safe.*

↩ replying to MisterPenguinIt shows you how much Disney cares vs. wants to act like they care. 2 outdoor theaters will sit empty while they use one of the indoor theaters. They could be doing the frozen show at beauty and the beast or Indy theaters if they wanted to be safe.

↩ replying to TrainChasersEh... outdoors isn't magic.
Would you want to be in an open air theater, with proper distancing, but everyone was constantly coughing without covering their masked mouths? I wouldn't. That's what an open-air singalong would be like as far as risk.
I'd happily go to an open air Fantasmic! But wouldn't if it turned into a singalong.

↩ replying to MisterPenguinOh I’m with you. But an outdoor sing along is certainly safer than an indoor sing along.
I was always able to find a “socially distance” spot to watch fireworks at Epcot even with normal crowds. That’s a problem but sitting indoors with everyone singing isn’t it? Doesn’t make much sense to me.

↩ replying to TrainChasersI'd need to be over 15 feet from an singer to feel safe outdoors. That's sneezing territory.
