POLL: When are you planning to return to Walt Disney World?

[Seanual757]

Yes... that will be it for us too.

I think for a good chunk would as well (us included) but if I recall reading they cannot because of how our contracts are written not that does not mean they cannot make a change going forward to all new DVC owners.

They would probably just name it something else. Parking lot usage fee, repaving fee....

CRASH.. I know many of you will have felt it bit today is the day our WDW trip was cancelled due to huge amounts of errors on TUIs behalf our original trip was May 15th 2020 an agent on Saturday helped us to move it to May 2021 - didn't tell us about any additional charges which meant our bill went up by £2000 been trying to call back since the weekend and have spent 19.5hrs on hold to them in total

I've been cut off by their system about 5 times spoke to an advisor today who I got cut off from twice thankfully she called me back they said that they could move it to Oct 2020 for us ... checked price and additional £2628 for the same trip as they wouldn't honour the free dining offer we booked.

I've refused and they've agreed to cancel it completely.. i was due to fly in 5 weeks its been booked nearly 12months (booked originally with Thomas Cook they went bust so rebooted with Tui)

I have my family and my health right now and we are all safe of course I'm grateful of that but there's now a big mickey shaped hole and I'm having a sad day...

Hoping to rebook for 2021 when the UK free dining launches again (it works for us don't judge ) and fill the void with our next trip!

that all falls under our yearly dues but we shall see the economic hit is going to stretch everything thin.

You know what I mean. If they want to charge it, they will come up with some kind of name for it. How about vehicle occupation fee?

Understandable that you'd be disappointed in missing out on Orlando, but at least you'll always have Paris...

I kind of like the bend us over fee myself

 

[donnylambb]

we decided to wait till next summer. 1st year without our magic getaway in 10 years. everybody stay safe!

 

[Skeiner]

I have a trip planned May 31-June 9 but what i'm seeing about what may happen even if they are open... I don't think I want to start the clock on my annual pass just yet since I have another 10 day trip booked in October I may just wait until then.

Does anyone think the parks may be open and normal by May 31st? I'm not seeing much optimism

If i were a betting man, I would bet a Sept/Oct reopening

 

[TexasRealtor]

October hopefully

My money is on June 1.

 

[Incomudro]

Our trip was supposed to begin today, and run to the 18th - that didn't happen as we all know.
It's been four years since our last trip, and we were so looking forward to this one.
We'll see what happens as far as the parks reopening, and how they reopen goes.
I won't go to WDW in the summer - even if WDW is open by then.
I (we as a family) just can't stand that heat in that setting.
So, I'll see if perhaps September is possible or maybe we'll string some days together in November to make a 4 day trip or something like that.

maybe you can be there for Oct 31 to Nov 1 to see the overnight transformation from Halloween to Christmas!

USO is closed until May 31. I assume Disney will not open before June.

 

[durangojim]

We have reservations for Universal and WDW in July 2020. Still planning on going

Well, when you get desperate for some Disney, you can just hop on the train... but Ilsa's probably not coming. Don't wait for her.

Our last trip was September '18... and it was hot as summer. I'd recommend late October or early November if you want it cooler. January's even better if you don't mind not being able to enjoy the water parks.

 

[Leahbobeah]

We have a trip booked 10/17 - 10/24 so they're back in business!

 

[Kristoff]

We have a trip tentatively scheduled for March of next year. I was going to try to squeeze in another trip in October but looking at the pricing of moderate rooms for that time is just crazy (~325 night for PORS or Caribbean beach). I can't justify dropping ~5K for a week vacation for two when usually any other time of the year it's about 3.5K - 4K for the same length of stay at a moderate. Attendance might be down at some places, but it seems like Disney will definitely not be one of them for the rest of the year, and their pricing reflects that.

Edit: I should clarify the prices mentioned above include hotel, tickets (with hopper) for 8 days and DDP
