Disney's POP CENTURY RESORT Information & Questions

[ten6mom]

Hi Everyone; I am a DL veteran looking into planning our first ever WDW trip (November) and Pop Century looks like fun! Hoping we can make it work!

Are all of the buildings open? Just wondering which section recent guests were staying in!

We were watching the Daily woo (youtube) he was in the 60's

Adam also noted that it looked like no one was in the '80s and '90s.

I was going to ask if it felt at all crowded but based on Adam's video, unless things have changed greatly since Saturday I'm guessing the answer is 'no'.

I would be interested to hear from guests how the crowds/flow of things are in the food court, especially at busier times like breakfast and later in the evening. Are people able to social distance? Are there many people there?

That is Ground Zero for the July 15s every year so after they cancelled,the demand from Guests willing to "brave the Pandemic" and fill The 15s' rooms must not be there.

Speaking of The 15s,I know a lot of Guests do not like them,but I feel SO SORRY for this July's 15s!

They had looked forward to July 2020 and their trip to WDW for basically their whole life and they were robbed of it by a GLOBAL PANDEMIC!

I bet they cried for days!

So sad.

Judging from Adam's video,there are no crowds to flow!

I have NEVER seen Classic Hall that empty during the day-I felt a little sad seeing a basically empty Pop Century.

I'm thinking that Adam's video of the first day POP was open to guests will not be a good indication of what it will look like in August or September.

But I got a kick out of his video. For someone so deep into WDW it was fun to see him stay on site for the first time.

I go back and forth - thinking POP is going to be empty in September and crazy busy because so many other resorts are closed.

Speaking of The 15s,I know a lot of Guests do not like them,but I feel SO SORRY for this July's 15s!

Great. Now I'm sad... Thanks.

I hadn't even thought of those kids. I'm one who really enjoys them in the resort and seeing them in the parks.

If the Surge in Florida continues I just don't think you have to worry about POP being slammed in September.

Any one know if the ice machines at the resort are currently available?

I asked the same thing and have been told they are!

 

[samanthaj1018]

Anyone head over to HS from Pop today and can tell us how it went?

 

[MinnieMSue]

Yes I want to know what time they open the skyliner if anyone is there today please

 

[Stefne]

I would love to hear about skyliner experiences today as well. Keep us posted everyone!

 

[CastAStone]

If anyone is at Pop and can see if there are workers back at AoA doing refurb work, I'm curious to know!

We go every July for my Birthday(except this one-THANKS COVID-19!) and also usually every January and usually end up talking with several of them each trip.

We always ask them if the Americans point and stare at them when they are Chanting in the Parks and they always say yes and "some of them take pictures of us"!lol

They really are super nice young ladies for the most part-it is just anytime a big group of teenagers like that get together they can at times get "excited"!lol

Think about it-they are AT the most famous Tourist destination on Earth,they are FIFTEEN years old and their parents are in another HEMISPHERE and the trip they have been looking forward to basically from Birth is happening!

In "honor" of The 15s,since this is the first July they have not been at WDW in decades,I am posting the photo below.

They can't be in the Parks so at least they can be in a July post on the best WDW Fan Site!

Hang in there 15s-we will hopefully see you back at WDW in July 2021!

This was from a January 2019 trip and my first stay at POP.

I got a kick out of watching them have so much fun.

Staying at Pop starting on 7/25!!! We check into wdw on 7/21 but the first part of the stay is dvc. Seriously so excited about Pop. We love the resort and this will our first time on the Skyliner! I hope crowds stay low all around.
