What was Citywalk like???

It was great, I lived streamed on my page (you can find the link in my signature)
everyone was taking their precautions, just happy to be outside amongst other people other than a trip to the grocery store

I just came back from Citywalk so I think the direct post from the union has been posted, here you go

Im hopeful with the unions hashing a lot of things out, we may see cast recalls soon(ish)

Just wondering if anyone was wearing the neck gaiter? My grandson will be 2 when we go, so I know under two no mask. But he will be 2 so looking ahead. Tried the face mask did not work for him, but I have seen children with this on where we live. So just wondering if anyone had that on-

Oh good, glad to hear that worked as a covering. I wonder if Disney will allow this?

They should. No reason not to. For some, they are easier to deal with and stay on.

Says the guy who said this two pages back:

"
I’m not on FB and have no idea what goes on within these FB groups we often see reported here, but gosh it sure does seem sometimes the info seems off, or incomplete at best.

Not meaning to throw shade on any reports, just always seems odd to me."

-----

I'm not "throwing shade" at you either, but a lot of your problems with us posters seem very illegitimately validated recently...

OK.

Anyone’s fast passes disappear again? Mine are gone June 1-6 but start up again on the 7th

Yes, they removed park hours for 5/31-6/6 earlier today, and FPs for those dates disappeared shortly thereafter. That has been the pattern each week when the swipe they hours for the parks, FWIW.

Can you make changes to FPs on the 7th?

 

[brockash]

Can you make changes to FPs on the 7th?

Should be able to until next week. We have a trip planned 6/8 and absolutely expect to get our trip canceled next week.

I just read on DFB that people's June reservations are being cancelled. I had pretty much already assumed my June trip would not be happening, even though I feel really bad for my graduating seniors. It was their graduation gift and on top of not having a graduation...anyway, I checked in MDE and all of my reservations, fastpasses, etc are still showing up. We did room and tickets separately because we’re staying on Marriott points at the Dolphin. Will Disney contact me about the tickets or should I call them?

Yesterday Disney notified guests with check in dates 6/1-6/6 that their trips are impacted by the closure. They also removed park hours through the 6th as well. This followed Disney’s pattern of pushing out cancellations on a rolling weekly basis that they’ve been following for several weeks now. For 6/7 and beyond, FPs, ADRs will still be in MDE until the point we get to a rolling closure that covers the date in question. Presumably late next week they’ll bump out another week, etc. The resort stay won’t drop from MDE until you get to the check in date.

As for the rest of June, Disney’s official info on their website is that the parks and resorts are closed until further notice and a reopening date has not been identified.

New resort reservations are only available to be made 7/1.

Signs certainly don’t look good for the balance of June (my opinion), but without any news/announcement from Disney, we really don’t know.

Disney’s operational update page has a lot of info that I think anyone with a near/mid term trip should read/follow closely. It also has info on tickets: https://disneyworld.disney.go.com/travel-information/

Hope that helps.

As noted above, not all of June is cancelled yet. That said, if your dates are impacted your tickets will automatically be extended to 12/15/2020. That extension may not appear until your actual dates are closer.

Any idea how long it takes Disney to extend the dates on the tickets? I just rebooked for July since my June was cancelled yesterday, and need to start making fast passes again.

not sure how long their system takes but you can call and they will open your fp capabilities for your stay even if the tickets are not extended yet
I did this, I had AP that expired yesterday and I called and since the ap cannot be extended rn until they know the number of days they will be extended for, they opened the fp for my travel dates (which were June, first week) and I was able to book fps

Thought of some silver lining for those of us cancelling and booking for next year: though construction is obviously delayed, I would think the plan to still celebrate the 50th will be on the clock. Hoping they can get a lot done before mid-March next year {fingers crossed}

They did let me this morning but I had to modify my package from June 1-7 to July 14-20 to keep my free dining recovery package. I got the email at 10:40am and called Disney at 10:52 am. We have a family of four who all are over 10 so the dining plan can save us a lot of money. I did not count on it after they took the offer away but asked and the CM said she’d try it. It did work, and I was surprised and happy that we were still able to keep the recovery offer. I haven’t heard of any one else being able to do it yet but that was my experience this morning. I’ve checked my reservation on MDE multiple times to make sure it all looks good for July with the dining too!

Hi, we just had our June recovery package/trip canceled by Disney, after they cancelled our March trip. My travel agent said she was unable to rebook us at the same rate, since Disney would not honor the recovery package anymore. You said you "had to modify from June 1-7 to July 14-20." Were there other dates you had tried before that and were told no? Or was it truly a if you want to keep your similar pricing, these are the only applicable dates? I have a really hard time understanding why I should be penalized in having to pay more money after the hassle of having 2 trips cancelled by Disney!

My ticket dates automatically extended late on the Fri afternoon after the park hours had been removed from Disney's official calendar for my week. If it follows the same pattern, your tickets should be extended today sometime.
