Pictures in front of the castle with masks too.

Make sure they’re cute masks.

I guess until it actually goes live, we won't know what to expect. I was briefly checking on my dates in September and some dates are already not available for Magic Kingdom park. Not sure since I have a package if that means I might be eligible or not so I guess we will wait and see... Soon!

how are you seeing what's available for each park?

So, looking at the AP calendar on Disney's site and they've now added language for a reservation system "launching soon" as well as calendars through next June that tell you "reservations required."

I don't see where it has any information about additional parks. All I'm seeing is a general calendar.
ETA: Are you looking under Theme Park Select?

You're talking about the Theme Park Select AP, which is for FL residents only?

Are you looking at the Theme Park Select ticket? That’s the only one I can find that has block out dates for specific parks. May be part of the block out language for that specific ticket type.

Right, maybe it will be something of how things look when they actually launch the full system.

I’m thinking that ticket is more restrictive than other tickets, so they’re blocking out any perceived popular days from being available for that specific ticket (since it’s cheaper than other tickets).

Thinking of everyone on this thread as I’m in Orlando airport and saw this...there’s only one left hahaha

If this is a shot glass, I so need this to make reading this thread into a drinking game. M-word = 1 shot, Reservation system complaints = 1 shot, the word "soon" = 2 shots.

Just called the Florida heath department and for clarification of what is considered the tri-state area and was informed it was the entire state and not just NYC. So silly as my county has had 50 cases and three deaths, and is five hrs from NYC.

Did they have any insight about the end date? I'm in eastern CT and cases are going down here.... If this stops me from going I will be devastated.

Won't make it to lunch with that.

How many for DVC complaining about POP peasants being at their resorts?

Not sure if this was posted or how trusted he is but it looks like that the reservation system is here to stay. Don't know how that works for ADRs in that case.

You would be correct. The TPS Pass has been like that since it's inception.

I honestly think this will be the first trip where I buy any of the year themed merchandise. Pandemic Disney 2020 deserves remembering.

When I went in Feb before all this, I brought back 2020 magnets for co-workers. Little did I know they would be collector's items!

Not a word about how vouchers will be handled. I wonder what they'll do about the issue of people grabbing a reservation just in case they want to go or just to see if they can get one whether they plan on going or not...because we know that's going to happen. If they don't give resort guests first exclusive access, that could be a problem.

I know it's been asked and no one really knows the answer but I do hope AP vouchers are considered valid tickets for this.
