They have reduced the number of pool and beach chairs to help with the physical distancing.Do they have the same number of chairs? Or have they reduced that number?

I think that’sa good idea! It’s been hard to enjoy with the crowds and lack of food options!We just moved our trip from this December (Christmas week) to next June. I am not sure if we would get a full experience this time until things open up. Also, hearing stores about the capacity being full at Aulani gives me a pause and we won’t be able to enjoy at this time. Hopeful for a vaccine by late this year or early next year and restrictions to be uplifted gradually.
We have eaten at Longhi’s three times this week-since nothing really open here-it’s amazing!!! The Marriott is beautiful too!!We don’t own at Aulani (or DVC) but do at the Marriott Ko Olina (which is why I follow along here sometimes, as I’d like to pop over to Aulani to eat or shop eventually). We decided early on this summer that our weeks next year that we’re waiting for fall. Booked last two weeks of October, so hopefully things will be at least better by then! I doubt things will be “normal” by then, but better hopefully!
I've heard mixed reviews about that Longhi's. Glad you liked it. We may try it the next time we go to Aulani, whenever that is....We have eaten at Longhi’s three times this week-
I agree. The irony is that it is more expensive to operate during the pandemic, such as cost with ppe, reduced capacity, more cleaning, etc. Offering less, but charging the same or more. However, offering a discount would generate a demand that can't be met with reduced capacity. It's complicated. I just want a discount.The price would have to be right for me to go. Coming from the east coast, its a long and expensive trip at what would be a modified experienced with masks on for the duration (including 12+ hours of air travel). If I could get a great deal, it would be worth it, but not at what it would normally cost us.
