Why would they refund the entire thing when you had X months to use it already?I believe you have a choice as to extend your pass or get the partial refund. I honestly think they should refund the entire thing.
Well yeah you're probably right. I'm forgetting that it doesn't run from January to December but from time of purchase. I was thinking, "why would anyone want it for this year at all?"Why would they refund the entire thing when you had X months to use it already?
So ask for a partial refund. Then apply the refund for purchasing a new pass when both your state and Florida is open and when you feel comfortable in visiting the parks.One of the main problems with their "one size fits all" offer is, it does not address the fact that every state has a different set of data with regard to the Corona Virus. So when we have to fly into Florida to get to Disney...Florida might be ahead of my state in reopening phases. (Plus many of us do not want to be among the first crowds back to Disneyworld).
It's a matter of math. $100 or $200 back on the pass does not equate to an additional vacation week of unlimited visits. (It's a lose/lose offer)So ask for a partial refund.

They already are stopping the clock for as long as the parks are closed, and offering partial refunds, as well. I think that's enough. I'm looking forward to the partial refund, because we're tied to a school schedule and extending the passes for a few months during the school year (based on when our passes were activated) wouldn't help us.It's a matter of math. $100 or $200 back on the pass does not equate to an additional vacation week of unlimited visits.

I do not plan to renew the pass.

Once the park opens it's individuals' call as to whether to go or not, based on their own risk status & personal concern about the virus. Individuals always have to deal with the fact that they might get sick or injured & not go to Disney- that's part of the risk of getting an AP & not Disney's responsibility.
Nor does it consider overseas visitors.One of the main problems with their "one size fits all" offer is, it does not address the fact that every state has a different set of data with regard to the Corona Virus.

I agree but under certain conditions. If they reopen WDW but do it like China, where only main street and a few shops and restaurants are open, then I don't think that should restart the clock.
Likewise you need a few weeks (months?) after things get started back up for people to be able to start planning trips again (let alone airlines building up capacity and that's not even counting getting over the fear of another outbreak)

No .. there may NEVER be a vaccine.
There is absolutely no indication that WDW is going to only open up the parks via just opening Main Street, shops and restaurants, and it is extremely unlikely they would. That would massively increase crowding, as there would be no rides to space people out through the park. And WDW has Disney Springs to offer shops & restaurants. They might start just by opening Disney Springs, but that has nothing to do with APs. They're also aware that APs aren't going to suffer gladly having their passes' time used up for days or weeks when there are no rides. So, no. When the parks open up, it is almost certain that the rides will be open, too.I agree but under certain conditions.
