** June 2020 Check In **

Well I just booked my first dining reservation, I got a 1pm lunch reservation for Lamplight Lounge. :Pinkbounc

Who knows at this stage, Disneyland could be open on June 29 BUT I might not be allowed to leave my country :confused3

In the best case scenario Disneyland is open and I can leave my country, then I predict a last minute surge in demand for restaurant reservations so right now I am just continuing on with my planning.

I will know long before June 29 whether or not I will actually be in California Adventures so I will have plenty of time to cancel.
 
I’m in the booking stage too. I have Savi’s workshop on June 28 and Cafe Orleans and Oga’s Cantina for June 29. I’m trying to figure out something great for my daughter who will turn 17 on June 30.

Super fun things already!

Couple of ideas on my other faves:

Afternoon tea at Disneyland hotel
WOC dessert party
Plaza Character breakfast
 
We might come june 29-July 3. I’m going to book reservations and hope for the best. I would be ok with no parade/shows if they decide to that. My teenagers said they just want to do the rides. I would just be missing Fantasmic that I’ve been wanting to see.

Does anyone know if the tea will be themed? I just heard about the tea before we were suppose to go in March but couldn’t get reservations. Is it always only on weekends? We will be there a Monday afternoon and leaving Friday morning.

we are hoping to go for my daughter’s 12th on the 24th. We aren’t holding our breath but are really hoping things work out 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻
 
I'm still trying to process things and its time to post the one thing I didn't want to write.

My Government has just announced a 5 stage plan for re opening the economy. Tourist travel, ie leaving the island of Ireland is planned for Stage 5, August 10

It hasn't really sunk in yet but I wont be able to visit California this year. OMG, did I just write that.... I'm really struggling to hold it together right now. Going to California is much more that just a holiday for me. There is a reason why I go every year on the same dates and I really don't want to even think about that right now..... Guys you really have no idea how deep this will effect me.......

Now the waiting game begins as to when my flights will be cancelled. I just can't cope with cancelling them myself. I guess when I get the airline email it will become real. I can't face cancelling hotels right now.

And the hardest part is being alone and having to hold it together and not let my mom see how upset I am, and having to carry on as if I am ok, when I know will this send my mental health back to a very dark place.....

Edit...
As my travel insurance has a Covid 19 medical exclusion for new bookings after March 13 2020, I can't just reschedule for later in 2020 as I will not have medical insurance for travel to USA. I'm trying not to even think about 2021, as its very likely that international travel wont be possible in 2021 if travel insurance companies keep the Covid 19 medical exclusion in their policies........ The Irish Government will allow me to leave the island after August 10 2020 but without medical insurance for Covid 19 no one will travel.......

Oh, @BadPinkTink I understand about having special dates or reasons to visit certain places and I'm so sorry you're having to miss your special time at DL.

Even if you can't be at DL on your special dates remember that we ALL carry a little Disney in our hearts and our memories of days spent there can give us strength and happiness, even when we can't be there.

And please don't be afraid to seek support if you truly feel you're going somewhere in your mind that you don't want to go.

Peace and prayers to you. It will get better. And you WILL be back!

I'm so sorry to hear you won't be able to travel. You're in my thoughts during this difficult time.
 
We cancelled our trip a few weeks ago, but it wasn't until today that I could bring myself to visit The Dis to confirm it. I'm sad, but know it is the right thing to do. ♥
 
When my husband called to reschedule July 1-6 he was told by the CM that their managers are 90 percent positive that they won’t open up until they are in Phase 4, which isn’t expected until at least August. So he held off any changes until he could talk to me. We decided that we better go ahead and try to change, because if we don’t and they do open up we will be disappointed.
 
I cancelled yesterday for June decided not to reschedule yet because it makes me to sad to cancel.
 
More from Dapper Days:

We're sorry to report our planned June events at the Disneyland Resort are now cancelled due to the resort recently announcing their closure is extending through June. However! In our discussions with Disney we feel there is a good chance we will be able to hold some sort of event at the resort in August (even if the parks are not yet open to full capacity). This would likely include a smaller DAPPER DAY marketplace with a limited number of exhibitors joining us instead of a full Expo with bands and dancing. We are awaiting the release of government guidelines so we can then design an event that can safely operate within those requirements. We hope to have more info at the end of this month regarding any potential Summer events for the Disneyland Resort, as well as the Walt Disney World Resort. Our November events for California, and Florida are still happening as planned and you may book your rooms at the links below. Convention-rate park tickets and Expo passes for November will be available online later this Summer. We have no information regarding potential park opening dates, but we expect when they do reopen, initial admission will be limited in some way as Disneyland did with the opening of "Galaxy's Edge", where Disney hotel guests were given priority.

EXPO PASS REFUNDS If you’ve purchased a Spring / Summer Expo pass, you may request a refund, or, do nothing and it will be available for Fall Expo admission. If your Spring / Summer Expo pass is not requested to be refunded by June 26, 2020, or redeemed at our Fall Expo entry Nov 14+15, (or if the Fall Expo does not happen) this admission will be considered a donation to the DAPPER DAY team. (Thank you! We would be very grateful as the current situation is challenging for us to say the least!) - Request a refund for Spring / Summer Expo passes via Eventbrite, now through Friday, June 26th, 2020. (We have extended the period in which refunds may be requested by a week.) Please use the info on your emailed purchase confirmation from Eventbrite and request a refund via https://www.eventbrite.com. If you need further assistance, email hello@dapperday.com with the name on the order, and date of the purchase, or order number. - If your refund request is not submitted by end of day June 26th, 2020; by default, your Spring / Summer Expo pass will be available as your admission to our Fall 2020 Expo (Nov 14 + 15), as the same ticket-type you previously purchased. (We will have a list of those Expo pass-holders' names at our Fall Expo entry.) Unredeemed Spring / Summer Expo passes at our Fall Expo will be considered a donation.

ROOM REFUNDS / REBOOKING All convention-rate Disneyland Resort hotel reservations for June are in the process of being cancelled and refunded as of May 8, 2020. Expect to receive a cancellation email from Disney early next week. For questions regarding convention-rate Disneyland Resort hotel rooms please contact Disneyland Group Reservations at 714-520-5005, M-F 8-5 PST, or email DLR.CONVENTION.GROUPS@DISNEY.COM. To book rooms for our November 14+15 Expo with our convention rates dates please use this link - https://book.passkey.com/go/GDDK20A It's not possible to "transfer" a reservation made with a convention rate to a new later event date, but you can simply cancel the original reservation and then book a new one for our November dates. The Disneyland Resort has lifted the policy of requiring a 1-night, non-refundable deposit on our convention-rate bookings for our November event dates. A 1-night deposit is still required at time of booking, but it is refundable as long as notification of cancellation is received by Disney at least 5 days prior to your arrival date. The same link used to book a room may also be used to modify or cancel that reservation if needed.

PARK TICKET REFUNDS If you have purchased convention-rate Disneyland Resort Park tickets for our June events, Disney has informed us: Guests may use their current e-ticket which retains its value, and upgrade it to a retail ticket at any time at the park box office once it reopens. Or, call Disney at 714-520-7079, Mon – Fri 8am – 5pm PST, or email ticketinquiries@disneyonline.com to request a refund. Please have your ticket order number when calling.
