Disney World employees reveal secret code names used to report major issues with guests

There could be a major problem at Disney World, and you’d never know thanks to employees’ secret code words.

Think of the last time you went to a huge park like Disney World. Have you ever overheard a hushed conversation between huddled staff members?

I don’t think so.

Usually, you’ll hear passing conversations, orders, or words that just don’t make sense.

Which is exactly what Disney orchestrates, and for a very good reason.

According to a Reddit thread, Disney World employees have special code names to communicate things about the park so that visitors are kept in the dark about the true meaning.

Via the r/todayilearned subreddit, a user spilled the beans and blew the secret wide open after something disturbing was prevented at the park.

They wrote: “TIL Disney has a code word for when guests attempt to scatter ashes at one of their theme parks: a ‘white powder alert.’”

They also shared a link which revealed even more code words, and they are shocking.

For example, Code 101 means that your ride is going to be shut down.

Code alpha is shouted when an ambulance is needed.

Signal 70 is when a child is missing.

But the codes seem to be different depending on the decade and the park.

Thankfully, current and former Disney theme park staff took to the comments to provide their own secret codes.

I don’t think you’ll ever hear these words the same way against after realising that they mean.

One person shared how they used to refer to bodily fluids: “I was custodial in Walt Disney World, Magic Kingdom in 2016. We use code words so as to not cause panic. The main ones used by custodial are (at least back in my day): Code V = Vomit, Code H = Poop, Code U = Urine, Code BBP = Bloo,d Code Grandma = Ashes.”

Another had a creative code to refer to puking: “If you hear anyone at Disney reference a ‘protein spill,’ it means someone puked.”

Another shared they had an insensitive code for a customer, calling it the ‘saddest’.

They wrote: “I worked at an Orlando theme park. The saddest code was an ’82.’ It meant a rider was too large for the seat and they were either stuck or causing a scene and refusing to move from the loading station. It was called an 82 because they ‘8 2 much.'”

Some other worker revealed that if you’re known as their ‘treasured guest’, you’re someone that’s causing problems for staff.
