One thing I don't understand is why they are closing the parks but not the hotels, restaurants and Disney springs. Surely the people who have just arrived for the start of their holiday will now all be in a congested area , the 100,000 people who would be in the parks with more space ,will now all be together in a smaller space , i just dont get it. Close all or nothing, is it just me or is anyone else confused by this.

I thought that too! Everyone who has the dining plan, who would have been spreading their reservations around the parks will now be heading to Disney Springs to eat!

IMO it's a sanitizing issue. Trying to sanitize every single surface over such a large area in a theme park is a logistical nightmare, whereas the hotels, restaurants and individual shops in DS, will be able to cope much better.
It could leave Disney open to lawsuits afterwards, so I think this plays a big part too. |

I think they should close hotels as well, a very expensive holiday to stay at a hotel and go to Disney Springs with no parks indeed 🙁

The idea of closing the hotels on short notice and kicking everyone out on the same day is not feasible. People will have to make travel arrangements to get home and it would a logistical nightmare if everyone in every Disney property had to leave on the same day to get home. Absolute chaos. Whereas shutting the parks is much mort straightforward - you simply can't go in.
I suspect they may eventually close the hotels but it may be a slower process. |

Feel so sorry for people going in the next few days and weeks if it doesn't get resolved. With spring break and Easter approaching it's a busy time for Orlando. A lot of planning, time and excitement been wasted because of a flu virus, I could cry for them and I will be crying in October if it's still going strong.

Anyway they will do something different for the UK pass holders. Just as it’s extended slightly won’t help much as there’s limited times people can go and it’s so much money to not have it.
Also this “ you may apply the value of a wholly unused ticket toward the purchase of a ticket for a future date” is that in $ or would it be for a uk ticket? If we can’t get into Disney I would hope that they allow me to apply the value to another years ticket as we only used our annual pass for 9 days. |

Couple off questions - if when we go the parks are still closed but hotels are open would we be refunded by Disney for the ticket part off our booking or just be able to use our tickets at a future date? Also how would the dining plan work ? Would we still be allowed to use it at hotel restaurants? Thanks xx
