在停業3個多月後,上海迪士尼度假區今天起重新對公眾開放。這是全球第一家恢復開園的迪士尼樂園。
值得注意的是,為避免過度聚集,迪士尼樂園內大部分景點、遊樂項目和部分娛樂演出目前都在控制客流量。兒童遊玩區、室內劇場演出暫不開放。
為何上海迪士尼率先開園?對此,上海迪士尼度假區總裁兼總經理薛逸駿回應道,「中國整體環境持續向好」,並對當地政府的疫情防控支持表達了感謝。
他還表示,全球其他地方的迪士尼演職人員在獲知上海迪士尼重新開園後,留言道:這像點亮一盞明燈,為大家帶來更多希望,傳遞了更多信心。
重新開放後的首日門票已經售罄。這無疑是中國逐漸擺脫疫情影響、全面恢復常態的一個縮影,也是中國社會經濟加速啟動的又一見證。
