Yesterday was by far the busiest day I have encounter since I’ve worked with Disney. I got to work at four and since the moment I stepped into the desk from the moment I got off, it was a non-stop check in after another, before I got a minute to catch my breath another guest walked up to me. At one point I lost my voice for a second, on the bright side time went by very quickly.
During memorial day weekend there is a lot going on such as many groups such as soccer teams competing at ESPN, Star Wars weekend and Magic Kingdom being open for 24 hours straight from friday 6am to saturday 6am. The resorts have been to full capacity and for many guest we have had to “walk” them to other resorts due to having no availability. I had the pleasure to tell a couple they were going to be upgraded to the Grand Floridian, they were speechless and couldn’t believe it. They were so thankful, they gave me a four keys card, it was a great day.
Memorial day weekend was crazy! Time flew by so fast that I hadn’t realized it was so packed because of memorial day. The Lion King show is one of the popular attractions at DAK. It’s one of the must see items on our maps. Standing room is rare and doesn’t happen often since the theater is rather huge but during this weekend, for the first shows, there was only standing room left! The park was packed and there were lines everywhere. I was surprised there were so many people at the parks because it poured and it was insanely humid.
