Disney World only accepting resort and dining reservations for June 1 and later
A day after announcing that Disney World will be closed until further notice due to the coronavirus COVID-19, Disney World is now only booking resort reservations and dining reservations for starting June 1, 2020.
It is unknown if June 1 is the target date of reopening of the entire resort, or if it is possible that Disney Springs or the theme parks could reopen sooner.
According to Disney’s website: “Resort hotels and the Disney Springs area are currently closed and a reopening date has not been identified. For Guests who are interested in modifying their existing travel dates or making a new reservation for a future vacation, reservations are currently available for travel dates June 1 and later. As always, Guests are able to modify these bookings if Walt Disney World Resort opens before or after that time.
“As we previously shared, unexpired multi-day theme park tickets with unused days, or date-specific theme park tickets with a valid use period beginning March 12, 2020, through the closure will automatically be extended to use any date through December 15, 2020. If you are unable to visit by December 15, 2020, you may apply the value of a wholly unused ticket toward the purchase of a ticket for a future date.
“To provide additional flexibility, we are waiving Disney-imposed change and cancellation fees up to the date of check-in for reservations with arrivals through June 30. As a reminder, most reservations can be modified or cancelled online. If Guests need further assistance, they can reach us at the Disney Reservation Center through our online chat feature or by calling our reservation line.
Guests with impacted reservations during the closure period may be eligible for special offers when they call (407) 939-4251— including a package offer that includes a Disney dining plan.”
