VGF now cancelled as I can’t see our Easter trip coming off.

Summer I am confident of.
Really hope you're right! What are your thoughts on masks in the parks? Do you think we'll still have to wear them 24/7?

All I can go on is what Fauchi said at the moment. He says he thinks US will be getting very much back to normal by summer, with masks to maybe hang around until Autumn.

Would it not be wonderful to go next Christmas and have no masks, no social distancing etc because the vaccine has induced herd immunity? Maybe that’s a bit optimistic I know but it would be nice,

I really hope he's right but I'm sure Disney will be extra cautious and still enforce mask wearing? I just hope that if they're still required that it will only be when indoors. Also hoping that you can at least remove them for photos, they allowed you to do this when I was in Dubai last month which was welcomed!

Failing August, I have a December trip booked too. Surely that one is the definite winner if Summer is a flop 🤞🏼

Lucky getting to Dubai was it good? We may book for Easter if it’s possible. Never been.

Amazing as always but only ever stayed at Atlantis so can’t really comment on anywhere else ☺️ Where are you planning on staying?

Really safe over there too, low numbers 👍🏼

I can highly recommend it! Make sure you eat at Seafire if you go. Food is amazing and they do good cocktails (if you’re into that kind of thing ☺️)

…...Yes we LOVED the Poly every time we visited and it was my dream to stay there!...IM not sure if we were just really unlucky but on arrival it was all horribly wrong ..There was some kind of leak in our room and the damp carpet smelt awful!...from there it went from bad to worse although the staff there were amazing ..The manager kept apologizing before moving us & refunding the extra room price, he paid our taxi cost to the Beach club, we are not fussy people but were sooooo disappointed

got to admit, we loved Poly, though we are a bad choice to follow our opinion as we love OKW aswell

Oh no that’s not good!

We had a bit of a room issue too (the balcony door fell out leaving us open to the elements 😂 ) and because it was Xmas day they couldn’t do a proper fix. I do think the age and nature of the buildings there can be a problem.
