Truthfully, I have no idea what Universal has been doing. I’ve selfishly only been worried my own tripIt would probably depend on the language the state used. Since they're not even checking CA residency consistently I imagine if they could they'd want to go with having people attest to it when they make their reservation but I don't see that flying with CA guidelines if this becomes a thing.
From what I read Universal has been checking vaccine cards for out of state guests, right? Don't they have to check?
Hopefully it's just a rumor, I imagine Disney is fighting it tooth and nail so maybe it'll get tossed out. It's frustrating to see WDW moving along with such happy progress today (no outdoor masks, plexiglass coming off rides) and DL is still stuck with all these restrictions with maybe more to come.

I know there is no point in getting ahead of myself with all of this...but there is. Do I try to change our dates to before the 15th now? Do I warn my family our trip may be cut short? Do I switch our dates all together?
I just really have a hard time wrapping my head around the idea that Disney will make a decision that will make families cut trips short or cancel trips all together, if they have a choice. And up until this point, the state has worded things as places get extra if they check vaccinations, but it’s not the only option.
I could see them doing it on x date when there is enough notice for people to be able to make sure they can comply. Or that there is the option of masks for those children who can’t be vaccinated. When we’re talking about 12-15 yr olds, they’ll also have to verify age, which means we’ll have to carry birth certificates/passports as well? Otherwise how do they know my 12 yr old is a 12 yr old? They only know he has an adult ticket. Not my situation, but will they accept a doctor’s note for those who medically can’t be vaccinated?
This isn’t directed at you to answer, I’m just really talking out loud. Trying to prepare myself, but also try to figure out logistically how this all would pan out. That 12-15 age group makes things really tricky with this. If there is announcement to be made, I wish the state would just make it. If end of the month is really the date being discussed for an announcement, that short notice seems really unfair. But also, so on par for the last year. Fingers crossed it’s just a rumor!
It's frustrating! I'd be stressed too- I would hope though that if you had to move your trip they'd accommodate you!
I think the frustrating part to me is that I’ve done all the right things. They will be vaccinated, just not “fully” vaccinated. They got their first dose within two days of being eligible. Our trip falls over this changeover and there is nothing I could have physically done different to have them fully vaccinated on the 15th. No parent could. It is all out of my hands right now and that’s not a feeling I like.
I've lost my mind just waiting and waiting and waiting to know if June 15th will be the true go ahead for out of state folks. Seems like if anything happens it will be last minute. But hopefully Newsom says something soon to give people clear answers. "Soon" being the word, right?
I'm sure if it's up to Disney pick restrictions or checking vaccines- they will pick restrictions. Personally, I'd rather show vaccine proof and have a fully open park but I don't think that's what's going to happen. Disney wants nothing to do with checking vaccines. Many businesses don't, no one wants to be the first major one to do it. Look at all the ones that dropped masks yesterday but were like no no no we're not asking for vaccine proof.
I’m not worked up over it, just frustrated it’s even out there as a thought. Truthfully just talking out loud.
I totally agree with you!
