On March 29th, President Donald Trump announced that the government will be extending the national social distancing mandate through April 30th. In addition, the need to avoid any and all discretionary travel was heavily stressed.
In other words, if you’ve been counting down the days till your April Disney parks getaway… it may be time to stop counting and start unpacking. This furthers the notion that Disney Parks will remain closed through April, if not well into May. Yesterday, Walt Disney World announced that at this time, it would begin only accepting bookings for travel starting on June 1 or later. As stated within the offer’s fine print, whether or not Walt Disney World will remain closed until June 1st is still undecided.
Walt Disney World and Disneyland will remain closed until May 1st, at the very least.
Check back with WDWNT for more updates.
We were supposed to check in on May 2 and then spend the next week enjoying our yearly Disney trip. I kept holding out hope (although knowing deep down we were out of luck). Better to be safe than sorry though. I really hope the virus numbers peak soon and start going down. We will now begin plan B trip planning to see when it will be best to push our trip back to. Stay safe everyone! Remember this is a setback for sure, but this to shall pass. We will all enjoy Disney World even more the next time we are able to enter the most magical place on earth!
Disney. I know this is still a hard hit on you and others, but you just keep hanging in there! We will all get through this and get back on our feet when this whole pandemic is over! LONG LIVE DISNEY MAGIC!
So what if you already have an existing reservation for end of April to May? I would have to reschedule to June or does this rule only Apply to new not existing reservations?
I’m going to start a GoFundMe for WDW!
