Disney vacation trip reschedule

[marinejjh]

Does anyone know if Disney will move your trip by a day if your flight is canceled due to weather? Only checking in a day later and leaving a day later. As an example.

I'm pretty sure that would be a no. I'd buy travel insurance if you're concerned about losing the cost of the first day. There's no guarantee that there will be availability at your resort to add a day onto the end of your trip.

Pretty much what I was thinking. They would likely be able to change your arrival date to later, but there may not be availability to extend the stay. Not sure about any kind of refund for the day(s) you missed.

If you're talking about in the next few days though, it's almost 100% going to be too late to get travel insurance to cover it. Pretty sure you have to buy the insurance BEFORE you know you're going to need it. (As in, they know when and where the winter weather is going, and it's doubtful they would even accept a request for a policy once the forecast is out.)

I always tell my clients to buy insurance for both weather issues (snow/hurricanes) as well as children's illness. It will cover you for both your flights and your package. Normally, if you have a delay arriving to Disney, you would call them to let them know that you are having an issue, but you will be there a day later. They will make sure that your whole stay is not cancelled. You would then make a claim with the insurance company for the missed day.
