Can you see her tickets? As long as she is your friend and you can see her tickets, you can book through your MDE.

The only thing that I see when pulling up my F & F list is Choose which plans Erin can see - All my plans is checked. The other two people in her room indicate Plans managed by Erin.

Im hoping it’ll just be a pro-rated refund for the amount of time left on the pass. While I’m sad to give it up, it would basically put mine at break even, as if we had just bought regular tickets for the one trip we got to use them.

That would be mighty generous, especially if I’m still allowed to use the pass in August and October (right before my pass was set to expire pre-extension). And on top of that get a 7 month refund? I feel like thats expecting a lot, and might be more than the “more than fair” that Remy spoke of

"It could happen then, but it could also not" is the most accurate description of dealing with Disney I've ever heard.

I think the key is those wanting to book for 2021 now and make park reservations will be forced to go with a package via Disney.

Anyone waiting until ticket sales open up, will be able to do the whole 3rd party thing.

But this says that theme park tickets for 2021 open up on June 28th...so people would just have to wait 4 days, right?

"By June 28, all guests will be able to purchase new Disney Resort hotel packages and theme park tickets and make their park reservations for arrivals starting in 2021 as our phased reopening continues."

Trying to follow.. meaning those sites will receive tickets first vs. buying them through Disney?

Passholder question.
I NEVER get AP emails but I absolutely WANT to have a shot at a preview. Is there some sort of setting on MDE that I need to turn on to receive emails?

I've been trying for years. I talk to IT, cast member after cast member, checked all of my preferences. I get NOTHING related to my APs.

Yes! Go to your profile on the main site (not app). Go to “communication preferences” and then “privacy preferences website”. There (just to play it safe), make sure all options are checked. I missed the SWGE email because I had this set wrong and a helpful CM walked me through it (as well as getting us on a waitlist to get in—we did!)

I haven’t kept up with the last few pages but has it been said here that APs will get magnets by mail?

I have a room only with UT tickets attached. I got the email that as a "resort guest" I can make reservations on Monday as long as I have "valid ticket media" attached. I think the package confusion is guests with room only and NO tickets have to upgrade to a package to book. Makes me think you HAVE to get your tickets through Disney for the foreseeable future.

Where did this email come from-I didn't get one eeekkk

I interpreted it as cancel right away and get the portion back that was unused. Like I have 7-8 ish months remaining on my AP depending if they factor in that extra month, and in order to get that refunded I would not be able to use it again.

In lieu of the refund we can cancel and receive a partial refund, whatever that means. I guess it could go the way like I mentioned above or it could be a refund of that single month instead of an extra extension?

The Unions aren’t happy about it and I don’t blame them https://www.wdwinfo.com/news-stories/disneyland-unions-ask-california-governor-to-delay-reopening/

I dont get confused very often. Most of what has been said this morning, even with wording issues from Disney...

But the AP situation just gets more and more confusing lol

Disney Destinations. I think as long as the tickets are there, you can book.

So the flyovers that have been done the last few days over WDW were for 3D mapping? Interesting

Via owl post on Sundays. Soon.

Seriously: yes mail. I don’t envy you moderating this. Bless you.

How is all of this information able to come out while meanwhile thousands of people still don't know if their resort is open or where they will be sleeping?!

 

[csmith1004]

This is where Disney IT scares me. If I pull up my friends and family list I see all 6 family members going in October.



But, on the planning page it only shows 4 of us and only my tickets (AP voucher) even though if I log in to each account I see their tickets (also AP vouchers).

I'm seeing on a FB group that an AP got an email saying:

"To thank you for your loyalty, we want to give you a sprinkle of pixie dust by mailing you an exclusive magnet later this summer (one per household)"

Speculation: begin!

F&G Orange Bird-I hope, I hope!!!!

This is what I'm wondering too.
