This is my worry. I’m under 50 and I’m not estimated to get the vaccine until between July and September.

No one really knows so I’ve decided best not to worry about it as what will be, will be. We’ve booked for last 2 weeks of August, I am hopeful we can go and that most of the restrictions in the parks would have been relaxed by then. If that’s not the case, we’ll assess the situation closer to the time and decide then.

We are booked for August. We can change foc up to end on May so have thay security. We have done parks many times so wouldn't be end of world to not go to parks or only go for a day or 2 with masks but we need to be vaccinated. Time will tell but I'm keeping positive thoughts!

Fingers crossed guys! - I think a lot of us will enjoy the next US holiday more than any other.

We are booked 19th August. Not fussed about restrictions although a mask in August heat walking round might be too much.
Not sure how Countries will play it on vaccines as some family members might have had it but others younger travelling might not🤔
Don’t relish paying £100 each for PCR test too🙄

We're booked for 20th August. We would cope with the restrictions as they currently are, including masks. However, as we are under 40, I'm not sure how it would work if there wasn't a vaccine available to us and no option to pay privately? Should we need to cancel, the flights are fully refundable but we would lose some DVC points

Yes! It’s a lot of money already without surprises like these.

I would imagine if no vaccination you will need proof of a negative test? That's the deal now isnt it?

We are booked for 17th August. I just need Joe Biden to get on board with the programme so that the F&CO will allow travel to the USA and we get our jabs on time so that I can buy insurance. After all of that I don't care if I come home and my face is white. I'll get over it.

We're booked for August, my optimism waxes and wanes. BA moved our flights last week, so they're earlier in the day on the way there and back.

We have everything booked so it can be cancelled or moved. I'm not keen on the idea of there still being masks.

Keeping everything crossed.
