We do not know all the details of how the reservation model will work yet other than statements that reservations will be required. Those details are likely to come out in the upcoming weeks.

We paid in full an hour or so after the announcement. It wasn't due until 7/6. I will be crushed if they void my reservation because we didn't fully pay before the announcement. Most people use that pay later option and I was using it strictly to avoid being 5k in the hole for a park that wasn't sure to open yet. Boy oh boy.

I think too it’s improved remember this is initial. I believe Disney probably has plans and the incentive to get a lot of these aspect back as quickly as possible. Most of these rules probably won’t last into September. They certainly seem to be planning cautiously to start with goals of getting back or close to back to normal operations as soon as they can without bad press

It's not Magic Kingdom parks, it's Magic Kingdom and Animal Kingdom. Amateurs! CNN what the hell.

Agreed in the short term.

I took from the comments that reservations may be here to stay. With VQs to follow. IMO.

Does anyone know what the rules are during the phases in Florida? What happens in phase 2 and 3.
Reservations are short term until they see if they’re needed. VQ in the short term are undecided.

Were at music too! Mostly because it has suites, and our normal home of POP wont be big enough for 2 teenagers and us.

I would think they would give DVC and resort reservations priority at 60 days just like they do with fast pass system. Then it would go to the thirty days first come first serve.

I was speaking on the grander scale.. not just the DVC resorts..
Make no mistake about it, the DVC resorts opening are a 'stop the bleeding' measure for DVC.. Has only a moderate influence over the parks. This isn't about 'lets get our beloved DVC members into their 'homes'' ... It's 'lets get the DVC resorts open before someone files a class action lawsuit.'
On the subject of transportation again, wait til you see the ferries

What's included in what phase is a little fuzzy at times and they are adjusting as they go based on available data but this is the official site with all the latest details on the plan and where we currently are.

It looks like what you posted is phase1? Have they not decided what phase two is? I'm just wondering in what phase is social distancing no longer needed.What's included in what phase is a little fuzzy at times and they are adjusting as they go based on available data but this is the official site with all the latest details on the plan and where we currently are.
Like the boarding groups to enter SWGE that were never needed.
We will see June 5 what the demand for this is. My gut tells me that it's going to be a ghost town the rest of the year. Unfortunately Disney has painted themselves into a corner with the massive amounts of preplanning for Disney trips, thus making it impossible to do last minute and spontaneous trips.

They aren’t forcing people to keep their reservation but if you cancel now and are within 30 days your points go into a holding account. That means you need to use them before your use year is up. Not a big deal if you want to reschedule in July or August. But if you have kids in school and wanted to wait until next June to rebook you are out of luck. During the period of time they were closed the rules for banking and borrowing were suspended and the points could easily role forward to next summer. So by opening in June without the parks you force anyone who has a reservation to rebook quickly or lose the points.

There is not a concrete schedule or finite details on exactly what will happen and when. He (Governor DeSantis) has said repeatedly they are following the federal framework guidelines but they are making adjustments each and every week based on the available data and how the previous phase goes. That is the official state website for the return.
If you are looking for a date that social distancing will not be required by the state you are not going to find it any time soon. The state is taking a very conservative approach to returning and have said the timeline will evolve based on then available data
