Cruise and Theme Park Operational Updates due to Coronavirus

[Mrs.Milo]

We’re local and have weekday Annual Passes. When we log in June 26 to make a park reservation for August 7, our first available day, and we make 3 days total, how soon before we can make additional days? I haven’t seen this mentioned.

I don't know if it's been reported already with all the madness going on, but I received my MNSSHP eGift Card refund today. We were scheduled for the 8/13 party. Much like the declined housekeeping cards that went out this morning, there was no reference in the email for the purpose of the gift card.

You can only hold three days at a time so after using your first you can make an additional.

OMG FINALLY! I just finished booking my August park days. Turns out some sort of glitch prevented me from being able to reserve my parks because I have an AP AND we had dated tickets that were part of the free dining spring recovery deal earlier in the shutdown. And after I saw someone post that you HAVE to use the tickets you book parks with AT the park it made me reach out to my TA and let her know I felt that was the problem. She was hold with Disney for 2 hours and then even they had a hard time removing the extra dated tickets but AS SOON as he did I was able to reserve my parks no problem! I hope anyone out there still having problems might be able to use this info for their issues too!

I hope our families and friends appreciate what we're doing for them!!!! If anyone going through this today gets ANY complaints from anyone going to WDW with you on one of these trips, be sure to let them know that they have an option to stay home while you go and enjoy the trip you have suffered and anguished to book!!!!

Or don't invite them along and enjoy it in peace

If it's like Disneyland Flex pass.. you have to use one of the days to free up another to reserve.

The three most recently opened rides at DHS have been operating for less than a year combined.

Plus don't forget about Lightning McQueen's Racing Academy.

McQueen's is actually a major attraction to me. I can't wait to come back.

FYI: I was just able to change my resort package on MDE with no waiting, no phone call. Surprisingly, I was given the option of changing the number of days for my tickets. I changed a 3 day hopper to a 4 day ticket. I was not expecting that with the hold on 2020 ticket sales. I could not do it from the change ticket link, I had to do it from the change resort link. After selecting the same resort, it then gave me the option to add or remove days from my ticket.

I'm happy to see that after a good portion of day 1 Park Reservations has passed, all park days still have availability (maybe not at all parks but at at least 1) and only the first 7 days are showing as 'Some Park Availability'.

Also, i may be the eternal optimist but I'm hoping they're holding back some reservation spots until windows open for others later in the week.

 

[Llama mama]

Has anyone tried to modify a park pass choice yet . It’s only giving me a cancel option

News from the Orlando Sentinel "Disney World workers start petition urging theme park to delay reopening...." Only 4000 signatures so far.

I was watching Pete's live broadcast today and he mentioned he was able to get a reservation for The Wave that day. Maybe I missed it, but is that how dining reservations work at the resorts right now? Can you book anything in advance at the moment (aside from DS restaurants)? Any rumors on when and how park dining will work yet? After today's park reservations, dining is the last piece to this crazy trip puzzle.

We're doing a split stay in April 2021. We already have the first half booked through a DVC rental and we already have tickets purchased (originally purchased through UT for 2020). Does anyone know what date I'll be able to go in and do a room-only reservation for the second half of the trip so we can finish our park reservations? Is it June 24th or 28th?

 

[Flamingeaux]

I need to call about the AP problem. What number do I call?

 

[andyman8]

4 hours on hold so far.

 

[MickeyEars]

@andyman8 do you know anything about when we can make dining reservations?
Thank you!!

With the Park Pass reservations out of the way, my brain decided to immediately find something else to stress about.

Our trip isn't until December, so I started to wonder what will happen to our Park Passes if the park hours change at some point between now and then. Will the times on the Park Pass windows be updated to match? Will we be stuck with the original times, and if so would we, for example, be prevented from entering Epcot until 11 even if the park opens earlier than that, while those with more recently reserved park passes get to enter? I guess we'll eventually find out.

My brain hates me.

I’m going to assume (always dangerous!) that the pass would be updated to reflect new hours. If we had to pick a timeframe, I might think differently but the time selection is only the full park hours, whatever they may be. That’s how I’d read it anyway
