DH and I are scheduled to leave Saturday for our first adults only trip to Disney. My parents are supposed to be here watching our kids. But Murphy's Law has kicked in again, and one of the kids has been sick all week and has a fever. We're heading back to the pediatrician tomorrow, but we're not sure yet if we'll be able to travel. (First, DD hasn't been responding as expected to the antibiotics and we wouldn't feel comfortable leaving until we know treatment is working. Second, if she's contagious we don't want to expose my parents, who are in their 70's, to an illness that could potentially hit them harder than it will hit us. At first the doctor diagnosed a sinus infection, but they want to see her again to make sure it isn't something more.)
We have a package reservation and bought travel insurance, but since DD is not going on the trip and isn't hospitalized or sick with something life threatening I don't think the insurance will help. If we need to postpone, what do we need to know? Does it matter if we contact Disney 1 or 2 days ahead of time? Are they likely to let us reschedule for a date in the spring (assuming that there's availability and we pay the difference)? I'm less worried about flight costs--eating those would be a lot less painful if we can reschedule the Disney portion. Thanks!
