Maybe not this time. Hours before the FPs disappeared today, the guests whose FP window opened at 6AM this morning were not able to book any. Seems like there's more than just an IT issue here.
Yes they will be busy the first week they open but I think it will drop off bigtime after that
Disneyland Paris France s actually just inside a green zone it's 30km from Paris and just outside the Paris region. I doubt it will reopen to September as France has already said no large scale gatherings over 500 people until then.And more news from Disneyland Paris. France has announced some easing of measures. They work with zones in France, green, orange and red. The Paris area was changed from red to orange. This means they could technically reopen from June 22nd. No news yet if they will.
In Green zones from June 2nd schools, restaurants, bars, shows, sporthalls, swimming pools can reopen. In the orange zones the businesses have to wait till June 22nd.
Also the restriction to don't travel more than 100km (60 miles)
As Disneyland Paris has a very small Downtown Disney (Disney Village), and it's over an hour outiside of the city, I expect Disneyland Paris to reopen with Disneyland Park and Disney Village at the same time. I suspect The Studios will open later, due to the combination of many refurbishments and shows, there is only a handful of rides left.
As a coincidence I decided to call today, to a. see if I could upgrade from a value to a moderate resort (unfortunately not) for my September visit, and b. I've splurged on the Disneyland Hotel for a visit in Octoberone of the bigger family rooms, with a terrace! I'm so excited! So I can't go to Disneyland Anaheim, DisneyWorld and my Disney Cruise as planned, but I'm sure going to catch up on my visits to DLP ;-) I had 2 trips cancelled for DLP in March and May.
Oddly enough, the French government has said that DLP is exempt from that mandate. Apparently, that mandate only applies to "one-off events," so DLP seems to also be targeting a mid/late July reopening date (likely post-Bastille Day like ours is post-Independence Day). They've gone as far as to say that in a CM virtual town hall there, and we've seen pictures of executives touring the parks and surveying health and social distancing measures.
A thread was opened for today's window. If anyone gets in to reserve, they will post there. Mine opens tomorrow. I will check and post if I have any luck.
Not necessarily, here in the Netherlands events / gatherings have a max of 100 people, but the themeparks have reopened already.
Sorry to be the bearer of bad news but the CDC reversed their opinion on the virus transmitting on surfaces. I saw it on the news last night and was a bit upset. I’m back to wiping down my groceries. It was a positive development when it came out for the theme parks in regards to guests touching everything.Seriously. For the first time in two months, yesterday I didn’t disinfect my groceries when I came home. It was liberating.Hoping the latest findings from the CDC are correct, and my groceries aren’t actually going to kill me.
I’m eager to watch from afar to see how everything goes at WDW!
That's what pocket sanitizing wipes are for. Remember the CDC has changed positions on the transmission of the virus on surfaces.
I agree. The very first week of the quarantine I had a two week trip planned to the beach to visit my sister and had to cancel it. I cried for three days out of anger, frustration, and sadness. In the weeks following, I have had two WDW trips cancelled. I won’t call anyone out for being emotional about having their trips cancelled or reorganized into something they didn’t bargain for. We are all stressed out, for various reasons, and I think some of the quarantine stress is being vented on issues we used to feel we had some control over, such as planning a Disney vacation. We just need to remember to be kind to one another until things calm down. We’re all in the same boat right now as far as Disney is concerned.
If I had to guess I would say no parties. I'm wondering about all special events at this point.
Uh huh, see my previous post on why there was good reason not to list them. My first instinct has never been to look at Disney in the most negative light possible. I’ve always given them the benefit of the doubt...when I could.
Not gonna lie, I have moments when I just want to ride Dumbo and hear the music of Frontierland. If I was local I would totally try to go. I found some cooler face coverings thanks to @Farro. I think I could handle it for a few hours just to see the castle.
That’s how I feel too & this is where the anger comes in b/c they continued to allow ppl to give them money knowing full well they weren’t opening. I think it was you who said you’re not a bank that they can just draw funds from as needed. It also bothers me that other ppl have continued to make excuses for them. It seems naive to believe that this is for health & safety only. Then you get called entitled if you are angry that they were intentionally deceptive. Now the statements made regarding them not necessarily opening just because they’re taking reservations in June & then July make sense. But also is infuriating. I was rationalizing still going b/c out dates were still valid. But the more I think about how they have done things the angrier I get.
