Agreed. I have a significant interest in them staying open as well and can argue both sides of the coin. However, optimizing CM and guest safety is absolutely paramount here.I hope the don’t close again and it really has nothing to do with trips or the magic of Disney. Over 80,000 employees rely on WDW operating in order to access means for food, housing and healthcare. The state’s safety net has already failed a majority of them with delays in payments. I have a vested interest in them staying open because I have a trip and I have a professional interest in stopping COVID transmission ASAP. But it’s simply not worth closing WDW at this point if it will cause an even greater crisis or exacerbate the current one to the point of collapsing systems. If WDW closes it would be nothing short of catastrophic for that region...and I think leadership knows this. I predict that it will operate in some capacity and if it does close again then it really would be a situation in which there were much greater problems going on.
