To date, I never wake up "wondering if this mess in the world is almost over" because I do not believe that it is being addressed as it should be (but I shall not explain my reasoning here since this is not the place to do so.) However, I do dream. :-D I have a short trip booked next month but I think that your plan is more likely to happen. But, fingers crossed for all of us.Who else wakes up everyday wondering if this mess in the world is almost over?? Then I check everywhere for Disney news... ughh I had a wonderful dream I was at work and woke up sad that it was just a dream. Holding hope for my Disney countdown 135 days!!
I work in 2 different schools (PREk-1st) and a Dance studio and I just miss my students so much. I had a dream I was at work and it was so real, I woke up for a second not knowing what happened! Going to keep dreaming here that things improve EVERYWHERE in the world! I hope your short trip can happen!To date, I never wake up "wondering if this mess in the world is almost over" because I do not believe that it is being addressed as it should be (but I shall not explain my reasoning here since this is not the place to do so.)

So much not happening its sad for many. School traditions, Dance recital, and our oldest Son Graduates from Umass Amherst. It's so so weird. Hugs to all the MA Dis family!momtwoboys, I,too, worked in education until I retired. I am still involved with educators (via our Union and social media) and not a day goes by without me hearing that educators miss their students, I think that it's been esp. difficult because all the end of year activities, traditions and transitions are not happening. BTW, I do believe that dreams do come true. ;-D
Congrats to your son - such an accomplishment. I just wish for him that he could have experienced the graduation ceremony etc. I keep thinking how sad it is for kids graduating this year.So much not happening its sad for many.

We also had a trip in April , we just moved it to Sept 24-30. We will also go next April. The end of June 2021 will go back for Dance the World with my dance students.Congrats to your son - such an accomplishment.

I too wake up every day and think about Disney. I know this is going to sound really weird, but I log into the DVC site every morning to see the countdown for our next trip (it's actually therapeutic in a way). We were supposed to go in early April but the trip was canceled. I'm now supposed to go for a few days in September with my Mom and sister for a mother/daughter trip to hopefully celebrate a return to sanity and having coronavirus behind us (I know that's delusional). We then have a trip with the kids planned in early November and early January. I bought tickets for the Halloween Party but keep wondering if that's even a remote possibility of happening. Also supposed to arrive for the January trip on New Year's Eve, but wonder if there will be fireworks. There are just too many variables at this point so I've planned everything as if things will be "normal" by then and will adjust as needed.
On a somewhat related note, there's a company based in Norwood I believe working on a vaccine. I keep following the news about them because it seems as though they've been successful in their R&D to date. I desperately hope they're able to develop an effective vaccine....I'll be first in line to get it and then I'll be on a plane to Disney lol! Anyway, hang in there everyone!
Yes!! I'm suppose to book fast passes on Thursday so I would like to know if we are actually going! Also Southwest is releasing their next set of flights on Thursday in case anyone is looking for Nov & December flights.Anyone else anxiously awaiting the update WDW is scheduled to provide tmrw?!
I'm glad they're opening before July. The longer they stay shut, the harder it becomes for us all to make reservations in the future with the massive overflow of points being returned on those canceled stays."Disney Vacation Club resorts at Walt Disney World will reopen to members and guests and Disney’s Fort Wilderness Resort & Campground will begin to reopen on June 22. Disney Vacation Club resorts in Vero Beach, Florida, and Hilton Head, South Carolina, will also open to members and guests starting on June 15. Plans to support required physical distancing as well as enhanced cleaning measures, along with a number of other safety and cleanliness protocols, will be implemented as part of this planned phased reopening. " (from Disney Parks blog) Darn! I have a reservation on June 9th.
Can you try a different browser to check your DVC account online? Sometimes that works for me. Also tomorrow, try the chat feature. I had luck with that last week. As for your June reservation current points will be returned to the current use year. If you used any borrowed points- they will be returned to the borrowed year. As for banked points, that will vary based on your use year.I continued to call Member Services intermittently during this past week but always got a busy signal (which has never happened to me previously. I've had some long wait times to speak with a CM after entering all sorts of info, but never had a busy signal.) So, a few days ago, I sent an email via their 'contact us' link; no response, so far. Anyway, I was scheduled to visit SS beginning June 9th, but I still haven't received any correspondence that it has been canceled. I already canceled air fare, etc. but I'd like an official notice from DVC.
