Trip report Coronado Springs February 21 - February 26, 2021
Sorry this report is a little late.
Weather perfect ....and the FOOD! Delicios!
We were placed in the Gran Destino tower at Coronado. That was a surprise. It is nice, typical high end hotel....really doesn't fit in the "southwestern/Ancient Mexico" feel but a place to lay our head.
Downtown Disney on Sunday the 21st was quite busy and you had to wait in line to enter stores. Not sure they are utilizing the 35% rule down there.
Animal Kingdom on the 22nd had easy maneuverability and really decent wait times in all lines. Rode Pandora twice.
DHS on Tuesday was a bit crazy...not sure if the 35% rule was in effect or because it is a smaller park but really crowded - especially around Toy Story Land and the new Runaway Tran ride. Smugglers Run ok, not as good as Star tours or Pandora, but we rode it. Tried twice for Rise of the Resistance but no luck.
Epcot on Wednesday was pretty much empty and, again, not really a wait in any line. We rode Soarin' early but I think it did have a long wait later in the day.
Magic Kingdom on Thursday - all the crowds were in Adventureland with long waits on those rides. it appeared that Fantasyland and Tomorrowland were relatively sparse in comparison.
Finally the only really design flaw I noticed was the bus stop at the tower. it was bus stop one and you had to either go down four flights of stairs (not to bad) or walk down a long ramp to get to the bus stop. The issue being after a long day you had to walk up the steps or up the long ramp. Small gripe but add it to your list for future Coronado Springs Travelers.
The measure in place for Covid were nicely done.....6 feet apart, plexiglass shields at waist height where the lines switched back, constant intercom reminders, hand sanitizer everywhere.
All in all A-/B+
