Looks like the Park Reservation System is here to stay- at least till January 14, 2022

Disney Park Pass Reservation Calendar Extended Through January 2022

BTW, I checked personally on MDE, January 14, 2022 is the last available day.

It’s probably going to be in use until they can reopen to their regular capacity. Whenever that is…

Wonder what this means for Park hopping. I think they could manage to do park hopping in combination, but it would be tricky.

I know that they are going to do everything possible to be back to 100% capacity by the 50th Anniversary on October 1, 2021. Maybe even have the Imagineers develop their own Covid 19 vaccine for WDW guests. :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye::crazy_face::wink:

If they decide in the future to pull the reservation system, I don’t see where it would cause the turmoil the way pulling FPP, park hopping or 180 day ADR’s did.

I agree on removing it would be easy. Considering how bad their IT is I don’t see them doing reservations and park-hopping. But, it makes sense to keep for crowd 10 days.

Yet you can still add park hoppers to your packages for 2021 so maybe they are just planning for everything. They could always drop reservations last min without much of an issue and reinstate park hopping.

Yeah the bad IT is always a factor. But would it be hard to allow partial park hopping (limit of 2 parks per day)? With hopper ticket or AP, you would be able to make a primary and secondary park reservation. Disney could allocate the hopper reservations separately, which would individually be weighted less toward the overall capacity vs the one-park-per-day reservations. Three or four parks would probably get too complicated, and this wouldn’t have the spontaneous feel that hopping is supposed to have, but better than nothing?

This should be Disney’s new catchphrase.

I can show you the World
Shining, shimmering slightly less.
No more parties, or meetings with the Characters you love.

I can limit your hours!
Take from you shows and make lines long.
Rides might open, but you can’t secure that boarding group you need!

A whole new World!
Where things you loved have disappeared!
But don’t you worry now
The cost’s still - Wow!
And so come on down, spend time not seeing Mickey!

I never reply to posts, but this is worth the reply. I literally laughed out loud after reading this and sang your version in my head. Bravo! :clap:

I sing as well. Maybe I should rewrite it in duet form and we can perform it together! :slight_smile:

Yes! Someone start a “Liner Zoom musical collaboration” thread. I’m in. I sing and play piano and guitar.

Or Liner karaoke competition?

The Brady Bunch anticipated Zoom by 50 years.

I’m so excited we have so many musical people on this thread alone!

Almost got yourself a heart there mister

Thanks for the laugh

At home I am the queen of making up crazy lyrics to songs we love; this is my kind of humor.

Okay. Spent a little more time on it and redid the entire song. Probably needs some tweaking still.

Aladdin:
I can show you the World
Shining, shimmering, far less
Tell me, princess, now when did
You last meet with Mickey Mouse?

I can limit your hours!
Take from you wonder by wonder
Now your trip’s all asunder
Where you’re stuck inside your house!

A whole new World
Where things you loved have disappeared!
They will just tell us, “No”
When we want to go
And say you must be dreaming

Jasmine:
A whole new World
The dazzling place I knew is gone!
And when I check the crowds
It’s crystal clear
I’m looking at a whole new world with you
(I’m looking at a whole new world with you)

Unbelievable sights
Indescribable feeling
Crowding, stumbling, mask wearing
Through an endless sea of guests
A whole new world (why not just close your eyes)
A hundred thousand things to see (hold your breath, they’re all closed now!)
I’ll just sit at the bar, I’ve come this far
It can’t go back to what it used to be

Aladdin:
A whole new world
With reservations to pursue
I’ll chase them anywhere
But there’s none to spare
Instead I’ll share this Mickey bar with you

Jasine:
A whole new world (a whole new world)
Where things I loved have disappeared!
Now they just tell us, “No”
When we want to go
And say I must be dreaming

Aladdin:
A whole new world (every turn, a long line)
With boarding groups left to pursue (every chance, and they’re all gone)
I’ll pay them either way, the cost’s the same!
And when we’re home (there’s nothing to spare)
Let me share this whole new world with you
A whole new world (a whole new world)
That’s where we’ll be (we’ve gone cra-zy!)
A crowded place (expensive tastes)
For you and me
