No AP preview for Epcot and DHS?

Doesn’t appear so.

no ap previews for epcot or hs? HAHA someone else asked too

I noticed Twitter is now updated to show that AP can make theme park reservations for up to *3* park reservations at a time.

So what’s the betting odds for Monday? We getting Stitch ate the page or Donald having to duck out. Or are we getting the ole standby of space mountain in orbit? Place your bets people!

No email for me yet. I have a hotel and hopper package for november.

Are these emails from Disney directly? Even if I'm booked with a TA?

I’m guessing an inactivated AP voucher wouldn’t count as a ticket to allow park reservations correct?

Well find out Monday unless someone gets clarification before then!

I'm going with the Millennium Falcon one. Just to be different.

It makes sense that they are taking park reservations for all dates at this time. Then when they reopen dated ticket sales, they can safely include a park reservation with the ticket sale. There are time periods like Christmas that may be full up depending on limited capacity and demand.

This.

Disney has stated that New tickets for 2021 opens up by June 28th. They have also said that when you buy new tickets you can see park availability first. Hence they are doing everything up until Sept 26th 2021 on Monday, and Fri for non resort AP’s, so that when people buy new tickets on June 28th and beyond for 2021 they get as good a picture of park available as possible. I would also imagine that Disney wants the guests who already have tickets for 2021 to have priority over those who haven’t purchased yet. At least that is what they are showing, IMO.

Monday will be nuts.

So on Monday...do I just book my park reservations...then call and hope for a "modification" that they credit the difference with the hopper expense that wasn't used?

Yes, I'm booked through Dreams Unlimited for my December dates and I received an email from Disney directly to the email address I use for MDE.

Can anyone imagine the meltdown if people staying at disney cant get into a park and someone staying offsite does??

 

[RedWhiteandBlugold]

So, if guests are reserving 2021 parks a year in advance of their trip, what are our guesses on how easily that reservation is modifiable to a different park (obviously based on availability) if you want to change your plans as your trip gets closer? ADR's and FP+ in the past have always been easily modified if there is availability, so do we think parks will be the same, either switching the park, or moving to a different time slot, or do we think it will be pretty locked in once you make that reservation?

What is going to affect my decision on if I keep my Plat AP and take the free month OR Cancel for a refund is HOW the 3 reservations work.

Is it going to be a rolling 3 where I can book another one as soon as I use the first OR will I have to use all 3 before I can book another one like it was with FP+.

Because if it’s the latter I will be canceling and taking the refund. Especially if people are able to book all the way to Sept 2021 because I will def try to book Christmas and NYE so that would only leave me one reservation day to use between now and then.

Any word on if CMs can bring a guest?

You mean kinda like some DVC owners are about the peasants getting to use "their" resorts for the price of a VALUE?!

 

[gatechfan99]

So do we know if children need separate MDE accounts? This doesn’t sound correct.
If they have tickets and are listed on my account and are under 18 , we should good.

This makes no sense on any level. So my 3 kids, none of whom have email addresses or phones, will all (by Monday) have to have those created with a new MDE account and transfer their APs and resort stay credit to their new account? And then when you get to the park, what? I'm going to have to log in, log out, log in, log out, log in, log out every time we all need to get in the park or use anything related to the ticket?

Oh, and you'd have no idea you need to do this from the Disney website?
