Cruise and Theme Park Operational Updates due to Coronavirus

[SaintsManiac]

It will be very different is all I can tell you if things go the way they appear to be headed. Disney has never really differentiated benefits between levels of passes. Uni does. Sea world does. Disney may head that direction as well

I really hope they don’t mess with tickets. I’m in a unique situation with mine being old from before they went to dated ones.

If at BW or BC , what’s to stop you from going to Dolphin or Swan for QS meals?
Good point.

Possibly the insane prices for the quick service in the Dolphin

I'm wondering what will happen to those of us non-dvc folks with reservations after opening. I'm at Wilderness Lodge and it sounds like the people they're allowing to modify at this point are seeing very low availability. Should I assume my vacation at the end of July isn't happening? I just don't know what to think.

Right now, only thing available is DVC, not deluxe resorts like WL. I’d say you have a good chance of being okay because it would be surprising for that not to be open by then.

I think it's important to remember that even if this reservation system is long term, once parks open to capacity, there's no reason to worry that you won't get the exact park reservation you want on the day you want it, unless it's like Christmas or New Years Eve. When you show up on any given day, 360 days of the year they are nowhere near capacity and you never worry that you might not get in when you show up to the gate. Why would you suddenly worry the park you want is not going to be available because it will have hit capacity 30 days out? This will just be a way for them to know which park you plan on going to which day, and just like you can modify fastpasses day of if you want, I'm sure you'll be able to do the same for which resort you plan on going to, especially true I'd think if you are Platinum/Gold AP or Resort guest as Remy has hinted at.

also curious where they'll put MLS

CR was the third rumoured location, but odd choice given the food and transportation situation with BLT and the main building.

How can they kick DVC owners out of Jambo???

On a serious note, if skyliner isn't running CBR may be an option.

there was a comment either on this thread or the resort changes one where someone knew someone that had been moved from CBR to a DVC (by Disney)

Isn’t Kidani opening?

The plot thickens.

Coronado is obviously one. The other two? I thought AKL Jambo was for CSR moves. Maybe POR & POFQ, or maybe Four Seasons and Yacht?

I agree. Reserving a park in advance is certainly easier to figure out than reserving FP+ in advance. Once we are past the pandemic related issues I think it’ll be okay.

Im more concerned about what the FP system turns into and how much of a pay to play system it becomes, if any. Oh well. I’m sure we’ll adapt.

Will Disney automatically extend your days they were closed on your AP? If so, when will they do this ... do I need to call?

 

[rteetz]

Possibly Yacht? I’d imagine non-DVC property.

 

[Mom2Anna&Elsa]

Possibly Yacht? I’d imagine non-DVC property.

That’s what I’m thinking. Convention space. Doesn’t rule out Four Seasons since they are on property.

 

[Sandisw]

No deadline to decide. I'd call and make a choice before the parks reopen. Once you decide between extension or partial refund it is not reversible.

If we don’t call, will we automatically just be given the extension?
