As much as I understand how much you're willing to help, please keep in mind that some areas may still be dangerous. To illustrate, the MCO airport is not sure yet when it will reopen, because their security staff was not able to access each area to assess the damage. Some walkways inside the resorts might be unsuspiciously hazardous (you never know where water and electricity touches under the surface, and above, trees might fall at a sudden because the floor is so wet…)
Please stay safe at all times! To all: stay in your room until you got clearance to get outside. To those willing to help: go to the front desk of your resort, and ask if there is anything you can do.
We do not want anyone to get hurt now that Irma is gone!
I'll try to find the link. It's in one of my aviation forums (I'm a pilot and Air Traffic Controller). I know Tampa is expecting to be operating Tuesday or Wednesday.Do you mind me asking where you read/saw this?

can I ask you a question? my flight is scheduled for Wednesday from boston called jet blue yesterday and today and they said the flight is still on (crossing fingers) my flight is at 11am and I know a few people who are supposed to fly out the same day at 8am and their flights have gotten cancelled yesterday, jet blue told me if its not cancelled by now then theres a good chance it wont be, still wont be happy til im sitting in the plane with my wife and 2 kids, but just curious why they would only cancel certain flights and no others? maybe you would know?I'll try to find the link.

Went for a walk around the second floor hallway of Kidani at about 11 and some drunk guy was trying to go outside. I feel bad for the two cast members who were trying to reason with him. He was cursing and belligerent. Hopefully security got there quickly.
The Savannah side of the lobby has been taking on water since prior to the worst of the storm hitting. I haven't been out of my room since my walk, so I don't know if it got worse. But cast members were there with wet vacs and towels trying to keep up with it.
Hoping everyone at AoA who was affected by the power outtage and fire alarm are settled somewhere safely.
I know you weren't asking me, and I don't work in aviation, but my dad was a commercial airline pilot for 30-plus years. It's likely that the cancellations of some flights and not others have to with repositioning aircraft and crew. They might not be able to get a plane/crew positioned in Boston in time for the 8am flight, but they can for yours. Airline scheduling is a huge puzzle, and a disruption like this echoes across the whole system!, but just curious why they would only cancel certain flights and no others? maybe you would know?
plus im glad everyone is safe there!!
ny question was for Christian but thanks for answering that makes a lot of sense, hopefully we can make it, my 3 yr old wont stop talkin about Disney!! ive hyped it so much also, but keeping things in perspective, a lot worse things than a cancelled flight, would still hate to disappoint him thougI know you weren't asking me, and I don't work in aviation, but my dad was a commercial airline pilot for 30-plus years.

Oh dear a lot of garden work there - I also saw another picture showing POFQ lobby was closed due to water - as long as everyone is safe everything else will be sorted.Looks like a lot of tree damage at POFQ:

Wow, just wow. Wonder how long it will take to clean up. Any visible damage to structures? Are they still making beignets?! (Trying too add a little POF humor. Lol)
Sitting at the food court now. They are not prepared and are now saying a 1 PM opening.
