    WDW COVID-19 Operational Changes- Reservation System-Rope Drop Procedures

    I’m just waiting for Disney to assign individual bathroom schedules upon park entrance 😅

    No gaiters only a mask with loops or ties

    You‘re right that no mask is guaranteed to protect you from the virus, and even N95 masks which filter 95% of virus particles won’t be nearly as effective if not properly fitted. The face shield is worn by frontline healthcare workers, though, because drawing blood or doing nasal swabs can be...

    WDW Should Not Open in July. Discuss.

    Based on what I’ve been reading, (even if I hadn’t previously been infected) I’d hit up Florida and WDW in a heartbeat. Globally, 99% of the less than 5 million active cases are mild. Considering how high the death rate was 3 months ago (at least 3% or higher depending who you asked), it...

    What would you do? Memorial Day 2021

    I’d opt not to go over Memorial Day weekend. While it’s not quite as crowded as Christmas, the perceived difference is negligible. Last time we went during Memorial Day, it was elbow to elbow through the parks relatively quickly after park opening. Of course it’s so dang hot, too; it’s just a...

    Is anyone else skipping 2020 disney ?

    Had a trip planned for just before Christmas, that was off-site. Now staying on-site in May, instead. I’ve already had COVID, and along with my kids, we were among the overwhelming majority who only had very minor symptoms. For whatever reason, my wife didn’t get it (but still quarantined...

    Check Your Flights!

    Middle seats on aircraft with 3 seats in a row are unavailable until September 30 for U.S. airlines (date may vary between airline, not sure). This is for social distancing, but those traveling together can sit together, however, and take up that middle seat. Also many U.S. airlines have added...

    Extended park hours?

    Disney is so fluid, they could change hours at a moments notice.

    Will Food and Wine be impacted by new alcohol ban?

    Well, the CDC estimates roughly 15-50 million already already infected in the U.S. At this rate it won’t be long before there’s no one left to be infected anymore. It does make one wonder about the mortality rate being much lower than reported though. Masks are mandatory in my state now, and...

    Magical Express Odd Question

    Car rental companies have prices that fluctuate more often than the weather. They also have ridiculously high rates when far out, like 2 months or more. I always redo my car reservation at least several times before my trip, sometimes even a few days before leaving and get MUCH lower prices...

    2021 Resort Reservations

    It depends who you use. Most brokers and private rentals due require up front payment. You can certainly negotiate that with a private rental, though. And at least one broker whom I’ve used in the past was half up front, and the remaining balance due 45 days prior to arrival.

    2021 Resort Reservations

    You normally can’t cancel. One broker has a cancellation policy you can buy for a minimum of $300, but even then it’s a tiered refund depending on when you cancel, and of course you’re always out the initial $300 minimum. If you can commit, it’s an excellent deal, and we’re doing it and paid...

    Confirming No Possibility for Last Minute Booking?

    It’s not that they are focusing on 2021 people, they just don’t know how many people want to return in 2020 yet. There are thousands upon thousands of valid park tickets floating around out there, and with limited capacity at reopening and for some unseen time, they can’t overcommit...

    Disney World Reservation System -POST 1 FOR LINKS

    I believe that only applies to stays starting in 2021. For Dec, 2020 one needs to wait later into summer.

    Hotel Only Ressie (DVC) and Waiting to Purchase Tickets

    Actually, according to what Disney released, those with stays in 2021 would be able to upgrade their room only ressie to a package with tickets on 6/24.

    Disney World Reservation System -POST 1 FOR LINKS

    If the trip is in 2020, they just stated they would start selling tickets again later in the summer based on remaining availability. If it’s in 2021, you can call in on 6/24 and add tickets to your room-only ressie and make it a package. Then presumably you could reserve park passes, if available.

    Disney World Reservation System -POST 1 FOR LINKS

    I know it sounds silly to say...because you likely have been trying what I’m about to suggest from reading previous posts, but have been refreshing the park pass selection page repeatedly? Some people said they did so for up to 20 minutes before getting parks to show availability for their...

    Disney World Reservation System -POST 1 FOR LINKS

    Try to make a dining reservation at an available restaurant with any available time, then it will ask you to log in and there were no waiting screens. After getting to screen where you can cancel, go ahead and hit cancel then click My Disney Experience on top right for the drop down and click...

    Disney World Reservation System -POST 1 FOR LINKS

    Keep trying later. It could very well be a glitch in the system, but if not, other folks will be modifying their park days later on, so park passes will open up for sure. Plus, I would imagine a little availability is being reserved for ticket only guests when that opens up. You could try...
