Wow! Just wow. I'm SERIOUSLY hoping things have relaxed by September! I'm assuming this means that they will not send your purchased merchandise to your resort, either? Will we still be able to have grocery items delivered to our resort? This is a big one for us! We would have groceries delivered to Bell services who would then hold them until we came to physically pick the items up, ourselves. Is this no longer an option?

Will the monorails, courtesy trams, friendships, gondolas, and ferry boats run service when Disney reopens?

I’m bummed about the whole thing. Not Disney’s “fault”...I’m just bummed.
