Iv only seen tim tracker videos and really don’t like the look of things and that was just universal I was talking to a friend earlier who’s a well of Florida knowledge he seems to think Go this year as next will be manic What’s your thoughts ? |

I don’t think anyone can really help make that decision. We chose not to go as it’s a very expensive holiday that takes all of our disposable income (we probably couldn’t have afforded it anyway this year) and I don’t want a diluted experience. I’m also so sick of the phrase “social distancing” I can’t bare to hear it on holiday!

I'm with you! My head is all over the place! Tbh I dont think universal looks that bad. We've been cancelling, going, postponing, cancelling and now back to going again. I'm not putting off until next year as everyone seems to be cancelling and going in 21. We're going if we can and will make the best of It. we've been twice before. Theres no right or wrong decisions here...everyone's circumstances are different

Your friend's probably right about it being manic next year as October is the official 50th.although it will run for several months I believe.

I think it depends. Is this your once in a lifetime holiday or do you go pretty regularly? I'm due to go at the end of September, and if we're allowed in the US & my plane is going I'll be going. But I've been before and will be going again. If this was my first visit I think I'd reschedule to next year and hope things are a bit more normal by then.
I think all of 2021 is going to be busy because of both people rescheduling and the anniversary. I wouldn't let that put you though, nowadays Disney is always busy.

I suggest you go to YouTube and search for more videos from Universal Studios. Just getting one point of view is not that helpful.
You need to manage your expectations. You need to decide what the Disney Parks experience means to you. Will you keep comparing it to previous trips and be unhappy that so much is restricted or not available? Will you be excited to see the new changes and having new different and unique experiences? Everyone one of us experiences the parks differently. Put it this way, if I could I would be in Disneyland by any means possible and I would be over the moon just to sit on a bench on Main Street and be surrounded by the sights and sounds of the park, even if all the rides were closed, there were no characters, no entertainment and the only things open were food places. Would you be sitting beside me on that park bench wearing a mask as I offer you some hand sanitiser? |

Who knows what the impact of the Us economy will have on next years numbers, pre-C19 I would have agreed & said "rammed" but I would expect that lots of US families are now looking closely at their future finances. Also all plans for the "Big 50" are now 4 months behind schedule not to mention the financial loss that Disney has suffered.
From the Vloggers that I've seen, I get the impression that this year is a miss- Virtual queuing has been full within 30 mins of park opening & all in it's a lot of money to spend & only get a fraction of what you were going to get - it's not as if they are all discounting tickets IYKWIM We've decided not to go & have booked flights & one hotel for May, so far SD
