@babydoll65 updated the late June AKL cancellation DP "He's a Florida resident and platinum passholder booked directly through Disney" so not tied up in a group...
Disney can cancel anyone they want at their sole discretion. The one thing all of them had in common a few days ago was being booked on "special" group rates.
Say they reopened only the Magic Kingdom and the Monorail resorts at first. Wouldn't that be a reasonable way to do it?
Phased opening of Disney Springs is clearly a sign of parks reopening but I think this and other states opening now is clearly a trial. Let’s hope the curve stays flat.
I legitimately think that they believe they need about 2 weeks to restart operations, so every week they are making a call on reservations a little over 2 weeks out. Waiting as long as they possibly can feels like being strung along but I honestly believe that every week they cancel 1 week hoping that they'll have figured out how to announce a partial reopen by the next week.I suppose, but we know that isn’t what they’re doing at least in the beginning part of June because we’ve seen MK resort cancellations.
It all kind of seems like a slow dragged out death to June. I don’t know.
Correct. This is coming from a Facebook Disney group I belong to. Was following along to see if other "late" reservations were being cancelled but they are all arguing right now and most likely will have the post deleted soon lol@babydoll65 updated the late June AKL cancellation DP "He's a Florida resident and platinum passholder booked directly through Disney" so not tied up in a group...
Arguing on the internet? Some people are ridiculous!Correct. This is coming from a Facebook Disney group I belong to. Was following along to see if other "late" reservations were being cancelled but they are all arguing right now and most likely will have the post deleted soon lol
Doesn't make sense! Disney has been cancelling a week at a time. Don't think they're changing that strategy. Something's not right with that FB post. Very "fake news" fishy IMO! Someone else here would have reported a late June closure by now if that's what was happening.@babydoll65 updated the late June AKL cancellation DP "He's a Florida resident and platinum passholder booked directly through Disney" so not tied up in a group...
Apparently it's time for another round of "Operational Change or Disney IT?"Doesn't make sense! Disney has been cancelling a week at a time. Don't think they're changing that strategy. Something's not right with this FB notification. Someone else here would have reported a late June closure by now if that's what was happening.
check in date of 6/6So aside from the person in that FB group, what is the latest date we've seen canceled in June?
Cant you go to MDE and see which one / ones is still there?We received a Disney cancellation email this morning....but it doesn't list a reservation or date. We have multiple room only reservations in May, two in June, and July. I wish they were specific on which ones were cancelled.

( @vinotinto don't miss out this time!)
I vote Disney IT done goofed. What say everyone else?
If DeSantis moves into phase 2 on May 25th, that puts June 7/8th as the 2 week mark for phase 3.check in date of 6/6

I assume going a day later this week was probably because someone important's calendar was too full and so they had to move their meeting out by a day.
This was his post. I only asked how he was bookedDoesn't make sense! Disney has been cancelling a week at a time. Don't think they're changing that strategy. Something's not right with that FB post.

This is most likely non committal speak in case something goes wrong.Disney Exec said on Orlando News Station that just because they are taking reservations for July doesn't mean that is the re-opening date:

I'm honestly surprised they jumped that far forward because they have been taking it slow to not impact the phone lines and call center CMs. Now it looks like a free for all and Disney said "eff it" to their call center CMs lolI don’t disagree with you on the reasoning behind the slow cancellations.
I just think there’s a chance scattered reports of late June cancellations, if true, are indicative of mass cancellations coming. I believe we saw these kind of cancellations for the beginning of June earlier this week, didn’t we? It feels like a slow cancellation of the month rather than a sign theyre only cancelling certain types. TA/groups, then cash, then DVC.
