I just priced up next year and staying at the same hotel a 35% room discount is equivalent to about a £2200 discount whereas the free dining for a family of 5 is worth £4200. We would still be a significant amount out of pocket. For smaller families the room discount would work out just as good though. I do wonder though if that will even apply to us as we know that UK Disney have different systems and offers. Maybe we will be forced to just cancel because we are not allowed to travel and there will be no rebooking incentive.

There are loads of different threads on this - good luck to admin and mods sorting it out !
The kicker for me over and above the cancellation of DDP to sept 2021 is the need to have a park day reservation which you can only access at 60 days out and no FPs at all. Hope it's temp. Their phone lines will be rammed now as agents and travellers all phone at once. A logistical nightmare. |

I think they wouldve been better off keeping the dining plans and not allowing cash purchases in the restaurants, but then they wouldnt be making more money. Very sad for everyone booked. Also to only allow reservations they would have more control over numbers in restaurants etc.

I read yesterday there will be no 2021 dining release and no new bookings for 2020. Disney are still trying to figure this out as is the rest of the world .things are only opening to save the Economy , the virus is still a global pandemic . How on earth can Disney keep restaurants and counter service safe with the volumes they deal with .

totally agree, no way would I be paying the holiday balance before booking ADRs and guaranteeing entry into the park and no FPs, think 2021 is off for us but I can imagine 2022 will be rammed with 2020 and 2021 people leaving it until then

Is the sept 2021 statement an error? No one has free dining booked past sept 2020.

Can’t believe I’ve woken up to this 😩 was originally meant to be there now with free dining, moved to October with paid dining and made the decision last night to move October to next May after waiting an hour and a half on the phone paying 2k more and losing our flight deposit I’ve booked again with paid dining and the relief has lasted all of 12 hours 😥

As we were paying oop for dining plan (and my original calculation had paying for DDP and paying on the day pretty equal in cost for us, I’m not to concerned about the loss of DDP. (Already been thorough that fun last April when the last lot of changes were announced.
The change to 60 day ADRs and loosing all of our booking is much more concerning, particularly as the change is going for so long. Really starting to think that the chances of us getting a reasonable number of days in park to make the October trip worth while is very unlikely. |

Correct me if I'm wrong, but surely it's not that long ago that dining reservations were 90 days out?
Disney have not given any idea yet what percentage of tables will be available in restaurants and at least everyone is in the same boat. It may all work out with decreased demand anyway.
