Looks like I'm having a giant refillable bucket of popcorn for breakfast tomorrow!

I hope and pray they open for my June 18th check in.

Someone ought to take a poll on dates they think it will be.

GUYS I AM SO EXCITED! Also I guess I better finish up any and all phone stuff I need to do with them today... I assume the lines are going to be a disaster soon

As an edit: I can confirm I'm really excited because I'm wearing a fitbit and my heart rate *noticeably* increased upon reading that news. You know you have a Disney problem when.....

 

[Mit88]

I know why I am! They may not say what I want to hear!

If you’re July, I’m sure you’re fine. Proposing a plan when things are changing every week only to have to update and re propose a plan doesn’t sound fun or smart. I think June 15th-30th reservations (like myself) should be worried about hearing something they don’t want to hear

I’m just waiting for all the insiders to leak the details.

 

[StephenM84]

I agree. I'm June 18th and i'm prepared to hear something i'm not going to be happy with but i'll be grateful to move on with my life knowing what my plans for June will be. I also have a July 18th check in date booked.

Well, definitely says "phased" opening which I guess we all knew already. Do you think we'll get more details, or just the date?

 

[SierraT]

Desantis said today Florida has been in Phase 1 for 3 weeks. I really believe Disney is hoping for a Phase 2 opening and hopefully that will be soon.

All the restrictions are a real pain in the behind and things would be a heck of a lot easier to manage expectations, etc...

I assume we’ll get as much as USO gave us, which I’ll be thrilled with!

Ours starts June 27th. It is split, so we’d lose a few days with a July 1, a vast majority of it with a July 5. I actually have a ton of just in case reservations so as to not get caught in the tail end of a cut off. Honestly, I don’t even know now how many...it’s crazy.

 

[Vern60]

You guys are all so far ahead of me. If things go well, I might buy airline tickets and book a Christmas visit
I know it might be selfish but I really want to wait until things are more or less back to normal. At least fireworks and a few shows.

Speculation - they don’t hype this up just to tell people August or even July. I think something (they did say phased) is coming in June.

Yeah but if it is it will still be missing a lot of details people want to know like what specific rides, shows, etc will be closed and how they are going to manage capacity (both of which USO isn't go into details on)

Like a couple more restaurants in DS? hehe

Mini Golf and Typhoon Lagoon.

That’s always seemed most sensible to me. To think they’d let Universal run a month unchallenged is still unbelievable to me. NBA or no NBA.

 

[armerida]

Interesting that the official announcement says phased reopening of the theme parks, no mention of hotels...

Yeah I agree. By middle of June I think something at World will be open.

I will start a separate news only thread soon. Discussion will continue here. News updates will come in the new thread so it’s much easier to find.
