I haven't seen one. It wasn't behind a paywall for me though. Basically the gist is Universal won't restart Epic Universe construction until the economy bounces back.

Gotcha, thanks. The headline grabbed my attention but guess the headline tells all in this case lol.

Orlando Sentinel says I've readed my limit of free articles. Can't go into incognito mode either. So for me it's behind a paywall at the moment but it's fine for now on this topic with your explanation

I would guess they'd also be staying on property if this comes to fruition.

Yeah seems to be the first week of June getting cancelled. As expected. Week by week cancellations. The dates can seem further out because it goes by check in date. So if people are staying for 2-3 weeks, they’ll have their entire trip cancelled.

saw someone else post June 8- 13 so might be more than just the first week, guess we shall see. Hopefully they provide info out to people clarifying things - gotta be stressful to see things come through in drips and drabs like this

You have no clue. I am actually sick with stress over it. Have a reservation for June 13 with David’s and I can’t do anything with it until Disney starts cancelling. I’ve got this $2k hanging over my head and it’s killing me. We don’t even want to take it because my dad’s got so many medical conditions like diabetes and mesothelioma.

Presumably they'd block out a single resort for the MLS players (and probably a second for the NBA players, if that comes to pass). Presumably a Non-DVC, Non-Value resort close to WWoS.

Honestly with the size of Saratoga Springs they could just use half that resort and book them out. Or more than likely work some deal with another resort not owned by Disney on property like the 4 seasons

I can't imagine them kicking out DVC Members. If I lost a second DVC stay due to basketball and soccer, I'd be more than a little upset. Especially if I ended up losing points because of it.

They got the All-Stars and Coronado Springs. They regularly use them for sports ball groups.
