Rumor about “modified experiences” when Disney reopens (read 1st post for potential modifications being considered)

[midnight star]

Yep. Nothing canceled yet in June yet.

Same for DL. They aren't booking reservations after June 1, but I don't think anyone has reported their June reservations getting cancelled...

The site that must not be named just tweeted that WDW is taking reservations starting July 1.

Yea that’s interesting. Is it that they have enough June reservations already to fill the parks to the rumored limited capacity? Or they don’t plan on the parks being open?

This is my thought, especially if you consider DVC opening. With those plus rooms you have booked, you may be at 30% capacity (assuming that follows Shanghai)...

I’ve gotten one passholder email, ever.

The joys of being an international passholder. All that money and they can’t spring for a stamp to send us magnets or even bother making sure we get emails. Apparently the email thing is common amongst international APs.

And we don’t get AP magic bands.

Btw multiple posts of people getting Disney surveys are being reported on the TPAS thread

Can you include the link? My family is going in July and we didn't receive a survey. Just want to read up more on it. Thanks!

They will give you one at guest services, just won’t have names inside and has to be one of the basic free ones (can’t upgrade it). At least they wouldn’t let me upgrade.

My TA friend just texted me they just learned that as well.

You don’t have to be sad...I’m one of them. I wasn’t saying that in a critical way toward those who aren’t worried. (I am concerned for the elderly, obese and those with certain health conditions.)

Yes mask are only one reason for cancelling this trip. This will be first time for my grand kids and probably last whole family trip so if there is a chance not all parks or attractions will be open plus no fireworks or parades it would not be worth it for the money I am spending.

this is similar to our situation. We don’t go often. It’s my last time with a little girl who loves princesses (we’re on the cusp of her being done). I’m still hanging onto hope that our late August trip will be normal, but we won’t waste our trip on a sub par experience. It’s also extremely frustrating if you believe the risks have been blown out of proportion.
I do think Disney is in a hard position. The people most willing to go right now are also the people who probably aren’t freaking out about the virus. And they are the people most frustrated by altered experiences who will cancel if they take things away.

I just plugged in dates on disney's website. All of June comes back with no availitibility. Tried early, middle, and end of month. July 1-2 shows normal.

I was just on the Disney site checking reservations. The pop up box with cast member came up. I asked if reservations starting in July. The CM said reservations start on June 1st.

One of the things that will be hard to control is the behavior of guests during the frequent afternoon Florida rain showers. I have seen the cast members in the shops trying to clear the crowds that cram in there to wait out the storms. Even when they explain it's a fire code problem, a lot of the guests will not move.

Go try to make a June reservation and you’ll see no availability. Any dates.

With June becoming unbookable so fast after news broke I think it was an IT screw up they didn’t make it unbookable when they did DLR...

That is possible. They likely intended to do both at the same time.

I saw that, except for campsites available. So why I did the pop up conversation and CM said accepting reservations for June 1st.

Might just be an evolving thing but at a minimum they don't have a lot of confidence of breaking full capacity in June. Maybe they aren't fully sure what will happen with June though, why they haven't cancelled yet

 

[Spridell]

If anyone is interested, ALL DVC resorts are still available to book for June

CMs never know what’s going on before DISboarders do. That’s more or less a fact.

Disney's ticket page now has seven dwarfs saying "they are working on it". Are we going to get dated tickets soon too?
