Overview

• Opinion pieces from August 14 identify cutting ahead in attraction queues and during parades or fireworks as the behavior that provokes the strongest negative reaction from fellow guests
• Second only to line-cutting is interacting rudely with Disney Cast Members, which draws immediate disapproval from onlookers and can sour the park atmosphere
• Holding spots for late-arriving group members is widely regarded as a form of queue-jumping, frustrating other visitors who waited patiently
• Three opinion columns published on August 14 agree that guest-driven social norms rather than new rules enforce the courtesy needed to protect the park atmosphere
• Visitors preserve the park’s magic by waiting their turn, staying in place and treating Cast Members with kindness
