Agree - not a drinker, but won't rent a car - it's more fun when the entire bus is singing "Sweet Caroline" !
LOL my fiance and i were leaving EPCOT one day, mid day, to get a break from the heat. and the entire bus was full of a family in matching shirts celebrating the one guys 21st birthday. They were all very drunk and singing sweet caroline.

It is the fever dream, nightmare inducing part of our trip.
 
you have to call and they will put fastpass cards on your account and let you book them.

thanks for the reminder - i need to call about my July 23rd trip whose FP date is right around the corner!
Oh ok! Thank you! Who do I talk to? Do you check in 7/23? If so, when is your fast pass date?

I called passholder services, and I had to provide the information associated with each annual pass on the reservation. This means I had to give my friend's email and DOB and address (i think).

With a 07/23 check-in, my FP day is May 24th.
 
I noticed today that The Dibb’s availability calendar shows FPs are unavailable for both ROL and Fantasmic after 7/28. Wonder if that is a clue re: re-opening. Sorry if this has been discussed already.
It is strange, but makes no sense that you can book anything in July up to the 28th, then not afterwards. I checked and you can't book the dessert pkg for Fantasmic in July, but you can book the dining pkg starting on July 1 and including July 28 and beyond. I know the dessert pkg was available months ago when we made our original reservations- so who knows- someone else will have to decipher these clues.

I heard or read somewhere hotels are looking to leave 24 hours between guests in each room and rooms empty between booked rooms.

This would make sense - it allows a significant amount of time for cleaning etc... I know even just dentists office etc... have to allow 3 hours between patients here, so it makes sense to allow a greater time frame for such a larger/more exposed area.

I mean it will limit things, and be a pain to schedule but it would help also with the amenities such as number of people using the pool/laundry etc

We just got our Dentists email that they are reopening, and i was surprised to see anyone over 10 needs to go in alone!!
 
I keep wondering why they can’t just say something like, “Resorts and parks reopen on June 15th. At this time, we will not have Disney transportation. We hope to resume normal Disney transportation options in the near future in a safe and efficient manner for both guests and cast memberS.” It would stink, but they could do it. There are PLENTY of people who would go to Disney and rent a car. Just my thoughts.
That’s how I feel. I think it’s very off-putting that they won’t. And it’s not just ppl on these boards, I know a good bit of ppl irl who are getting very frustrated with Disney’s lack of transparency. Especially if UO does announce tentative dates today & wdw still says nothing, ppl will really be aggravated.
 
Other rides show FP available after 7/28. People with long trips are within 60 days (arrival 7/20 is 60 days). Guess we shall see, but your assumption here is wrong.

They are available in July, just stop being available on the 28th. We can't really check for availability because the 28th is still outside the 60 day window and no one is getting 90 days right now.

Then they may be doing a first come first served spaced out thing for shows or no shows all together

EDIT Realize now that would not explain being able to choose before hand dates

Maybe it's time ppl put their money where there mouth is and stop giving it to the Mouse. Ppl need to take off their Mickey coloured glasses. Take a Dollywood or Cedar Point vacation instead. Or if you want to go to Orlando give it to Universal.

My math is so bad! Thanks for the correction, I fixed my post. But still, those with FP before 7/28 don't explain why none on the 28th and beyond. My trip isn't during those dates so I can't check if I could actually book one- maybe someone with those dates will. It's just puzzling.
 
That is weird. Oh well, just thought I would mention it. I figured it was a welcome distraction from masks! 😂
