Were you Thursday or Friday?Okay, so, after hours on the phone with the airline, there's no way I'm going to make it down there. Calling to see about a ticket refund/credit/whatever now. Anyone have any advice?
I'm Friday and Sunday. I suspect there may be drama with Sunday, but since Delta can't get me down there, I don't really have much choice.Were you Thursday or Friday?
Now that the park is officially closed, I have to assume Thursday will be real refunds. I would like to think they'd do that for Friday, too, since the airports will be closed for people like you who be arriving, but who knows? That one may continue to be only credit towards future tickets/hard tickets.
It's on the website now, but refund options have not yet been emailed:It’s official
Refunds available for tonight’s & Thursday party
Parks are entirely closed weds & Thurs

If you're at MK today, there are walk up tickets available due to lots of people not being able to make it in.
Go right to the ticket booth at the front of the park or GS. You can't order them online, and if I'm being real about it, this may be the only weekend with the hurricane and all.How does that work? Dh and I might try to fly in Saturday and try for tickets to the Sunday party. Where do we go to ask about available tickets?

Yeah, and, in keeping with the theme, it's a ghost town.Is the party going on tonight?
Nope, no other ticket or reservation that day. Just a party ticket.Did you have a non hopper ticket and reservation at another park that day? I've seen others report this somehow makes you eligible for Genie+ in those pre-party hours even though your regular ticket wouldn't have gotten you into MK.
But you can get your money back if unable to attend?Yeah, and, in keeping with the theme, it's a ghost town.![]()
Sounds like you can, but don't quote me on that.But you can get your money back if unable to attend?
Hm. This is interesting. So we are “grandfathered” in to the old system (when you purchased genie for the duration of your trip vs day by day) I wonder if we would automatically have genie for the pre party hours 3-6 when we plan to arrive at parkMaybe this is a change or just a fluke - but we were able to purchase Genie+ on 9/19 with just a party ticket (no Magic Kingdom park reservation or park hopper). We selected MK as our park in the My Day tab and it let us purchase and book.
We didn't arrive with stacked LLs - since most return times were almost immediate, we just churned through as many as we could between 4-5:30pm. Haunted Mansion, Big Thunder, Splash, and Under the Sea (we absolutely did not need a LL for that last one). We were also able to pre-purchase a LL+ for Seven Dwarfs. Standby waits were posted around 15-30 min during this period - so did we need Genie+? No. But it let us knock out some rides quickly and then focus on the party after 7pm.
After sitting on hold since i posted this, my call was abruptly dumped into the past call survey then hung up on. if anyone else is considering it, I'd strongly advise not to bother calling tonight.Okay, so, after hours on the phone with the airline, there's no way I'm going to make it down there.
