They also were to resume operations on April 1. Things are subject to change. 8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Reid Posted March 29, 2020 #3 Share Posted March 29, 2020 I sincerely doubt that. Probably just fishing for some ticket sales and reservations. I imagine that tickets would not be refundable but more like a FCC. Five people with the virus go to the park and the nation would be a ground zero again. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anything positive is a good thing. I'm still hoping we can whip this virus out in a couple months, but who knows. Anyway, I still have a couple cruises booked this year, starting in late July, so I'll stay positive with you. 🙂 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No fishing for anything, I had reservations in April, got all my money back. Made new reservations which are also refundable. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That date isn't posted on either the Disney site or the Disney boards. Too late for us even if true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, that date technically isn’t set in stone. They just removed inventory from their reservation platforms for any date prior to June 1. As of now, the Walt Disney World Resort still has operations suspended “until further notice.” 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iamcruzin Posted March 30, 2020 #10 Share Posted March 30, 2020 My son was scheduled to graduate college on June 6th in Orlando. He received notification that the ceremony was canceled and they refunded him for his cap and gown. Disney may be planning on opening but things change daily. We are just living day to day now.

mugtech Posted March 30, 2020 #11 Share Posted March 30, 2020 The old man rocks among his dreams, a prisoner of the porch The light he said at the end of the tunnel Was nothing but a burglar's torch And them that was caught in the cover are all rich and free But they chained my mind to an endless tune When they took my only son from me I know it's true, oh so true, cause I saw it on t.v.

Unless Mickey Mouse plans to have a vaccine in place by June 1st there is minimal chance that any theme park will open by that or any other date this Summer or Autumn (Fall).

Actually it is posted on Disboards and being discussed extensively. We have reservations for a vacation in April, we have been waiting to reschedule and not been able to do that. I spent 2+ hours on hold with Disney to reschedule. The Disney app, which has all our personal plans on it, now gives instructions for rescheduling after June 1st. I would not lie about this, jeesh. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lovetotravel1977 Posted March 30, 2020 #15 Share Posted March 30, 2020 I have seen the June 1st date batted around on the Disboards, but even there, many people still think that date is just something Disney put out for now as an estimate. Disney has to plan for the next wave of college and international cast members so they needed a date to give them. Plus, if by rare chance there is a possibility that this clears up by then, they need to be prepared. OP, I know you are looking at this as a positive, but I would not put to much stock into when a business is currently predicting to be opening up. Many are just hedging their bets. They need people to keep making reservations for added revenue that they can then hold and get interest until then need to cancel. This is one reason many restaurants have been sending out emails and putting it on their website to purchase gift cards. This is revenue that they can use now that will be redeemed later. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't hold my breath on that. April is supposed to be worse than March and May worse than April. Can't see them whipping the doors open in June. This is not going to end quickly.

smakl Posted March 30, 2020 #17 Share Posted March 30, 2020 @nbsjcruiser Actually we are supposed to peak in mid to early April (at least here near Chicago) so hopefully May will be better. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Problem is there are going to be multiple peaks all over the US. Cuomo says April will be worse and May worse again in NY state. Some states might be ahead of them, many will be behind and suffer their peak later in the year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arzeena Posted March 30, 2020 #19 Share Posted March 30, 2020 OP I am amazed how many armchair Pandemic Pundits love to give their two cents and run you down for your post.

Judyrem Posted March 30, 2020 #22 Share Posted March 30, 2020 I have a ten day trip with my family scheduled starting June 1 at Disney. I was going to postpone until October now I don't know what to do if this is true. I have prepaid my condo (non refundable) and bought trip insurance before this entire debacle started over six months ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
