Our dance Nationals have said they MIGHT move to AZ or NV depending on the environment in CA, but it looks like they're staying the course and doing San Diego. It's our first year on the company roster (rookies don't compete except as soloists in our studio). IF nationals moved, it would affect our DL plans, for sure.Small world! We are in AZ too and we had Dance Nationals in SD at the end of June too! But ours got moved to Phoenix (Biltmore) and a week earlier. This is our first nationals so being close to home vs at the SD Sheraton feels a lot less stressful!
I'm also hoping by the time out of state folks are allowed in that also coincides with an increase of dining, hours, etc. I didn't even realize until I was reading the Disneyland dining reservation news today how few table service options are open right now. Yikes.
Since I'm planning on Thanksgiving though I'm sure by the time I go things will at least be somewhat back to normal in terms of dining/hours/etc. Although we may sneak out for a quick weekend in August if all goes well... Hard to resist, been waiting so so so long.
From what I understand many of the cast members chose to not come back for personal reasons, moved away, got another job, etc. That and with limited capacity they do not need as many dining options. As they hire / train more people and increase capacity I am sure more things will open. Same thing happened at WDW, almost nothing was open at first.
I simply have not wrapped my head around all the info yet, hoping someone can help me! Want a quick get away weekend in October. Thinking about purchasing a package from GETAWAY TODAY for hotel and tickets. I was an AP holder, and already have rooms reserved for December but no tickets yet. Is it ok to purchase even thought I am out of state?
Yes, we are both fully vaccinated etc....just trying to make up for our trips last year in October and December!
I don't foresee masks disappearing this year. Maybe by summer 2022. Nor do I foresee the return of MaxPass this year. (It is a possibility, but considering WDW hasn't brought back FP yet, I doubt we will see FP anytime soon.We would probably wait until things like MaxPass are back but we purchased my wife’s mother at Target for Christmas 2019 with the intention on joining us APers in 2020. Well, this crazy thing happened in 2020....
Not entire sure what the story is on expiration for those tickets but figuring we will probably make a trip at some point this year. Would prefer to not have to worry about masks all day.

Now, I'm not trying to be funny, but curious how you purchased your wife's mother at Target?
I'm thinking you left out something like you bought her a ticket. Tickets will likely expire end of 2021.
Ha! Whoops!
Yes, I don’t expect masks to be gone or MP to be back this year. I said we “would” have waited but can’t because of expiring tickets.
Thanks for the reminder. Much to mull over.The value of the ticket never expires so you could apply it to future ones... or just visit this year and enjoy.
Tbh, I was really apprehensive about doing WDW with no Fastpass and masks all day and we had a great time. I think if we see mask rules relaxed significantly it'll happen at WDW first though.
