SSR 1-bedrooms also have a 4 person capacity. Lots more space to spread out though!

Saw this in a Facebook group and I am not sure if it was addressed yet:

Good morning! For any of my fellow NYC Tri-State area residents, there has been an update for traveling from NY, NJ or CT. The 14 day quarantine for people traveling from those states to FL is still in effect. But the language has changed from expiring July 7 to having no set expiration date. Also, Disney has addressed this by explicitly stating that anyone under a quarantine order is not to enter WDW property. I’m keeping on top of this, and will let you know if I see any changes.

Doesn't Florida have more cases per day now than these states and Florida numbers are tending up while these 3 states are trending down? Really curious how long they keep this restriction in place.

 

[tinkerhon]

Yeah, there's no way on earth we would go during this time, even if parks open - no guarantee to get in, shortened hours I'm sure. No go.

I'm thinking people who do go, these will be shorter trips. I can't imagine booking a 7 day or longer stay with no guarantees of going to a park, no feature pools, not many restaurants. How would you fill your days? Disney Springs?

Same - and honestly, think this is exactly what Disney wanted - I will even lower the bar to 5 days from 7 - ! No way would be able to do this - wouldn't even be worth the price of airfare - at least for us

I haven't been following any state other than my own, so I can't say. I do think it's weird to keep the restriction in place.

So...
I just went on MDE and I am able to purchase annual pass (out of state. Platinum or Platinum Plus).
I didn’t purchase them. Followed the prompt up until my credit card would be charged (maybe it’ll stop me there). I have reservations for July and August at FW Cabins. I do not have any tickets purchased or linked. And i have never had Annual passes.
Isn’t this contrary with what is currently being said by Disney? I haven’t seen any mention of new tix or passes being sold.

Some ppl said they were able to do what you did a few days ago. I talked to a CM in annual passes yesterday & she said even though it does that, when you put your cc info it’s going to give you an error message & not let it go through.

How may does the one bedroom villa sleep? I saw a video which looks like it sleeps five but I'm not sure.

 

[tramps’lady]

Can we start a new speculation? For those who confirmed their stays through the July 4 email that went out yesterday does anyone think those people will be upgraded to next tier rooms at all? Or what you booked is what you get?

I don't know if i can get upgraded from CR CL theme park view. on hold now to change to the campground in our RV, it's been 3 hours 50 minutes now. it's really not that complicated is it?

I live in NY so I keep a close eye on how things are trending. CNN's website has some nice graphs for each state's daily numbers and how they've been trending the last 14 days. NY,NJ,CT have been trending down for a couple of weeks now while the Florida trend line keeps going up. I can't tell the exact numbers but it looks like this last week has been where Florida has started to have more cases per day than NY. I know this topic isn't meant for discussions about numbers and the virus but this quarantine rule placed on these 3 states is starting to look really silly.

That isn’t true I was able to just purchase one 30 seconds ago and it went through and it is on my mde.

As I said above, SSR 1BRs sleep four.

Just looked at it to be sure and they will allow 5 adults, but 5th has to provide their own bedding and linens.

 

[jenjersnap]

You would have to provide a bed too. What they “allow” vs. capacity are two different things.

I just purchased an annual pass for my 2 year old going on 3 year old Friday.

I *think* if you read the second order from June 5th it tells you this order supersedes the original. The June 5th order is in effect until June 30th.
