Did you have POR booked ahead of time? Because now both Port Orleans resorts have no scheduled opening dates and are not bookable for 2021.Me! We were supposed to be there now (June 20-26) for Dance the World at CBR, followed by a 2-night stay at YC. So bummed we didn’t get the chance to see DD dance down Main Street.
BUT we are officially on again for June/July 2021. Dance the World at POR late June (right now nights June 27- July 2) with my daughter’s Pom team, followed by ??? for nights July 3-4 (thinking Poly but it’s $$$ for 2 nights - totally want something for fireworks).
Our summer trip this year was going to be to Northern and Central California in July, but that's off. We had been planning for our third New Year's trip to WDW but hadn't booked anything yet, and then all heck broke loose and ticket sales went away, etc. I normally have an AP and make a few trips each year. My last visit was in September, and my AP expired in March, which I didn't renew because of the park closures.

I agree with you, things have definitely been hectic trying to plan a trip through all this and the various changes. I would love to stay at the Poly someday!Hi everyone! I'm sorry everyone was displaced from their June 2020 trips
Anyway, all that to say, we are officially booked for June 8 - 15 2021 at the Polynesian and I cannot even express how happy I am to have *something* to look forward to again!! I don't even care if we have to wear hazmat suits and can only stand in one taped off circle for ten minutes on Main Street.
Our plan is to keep our Poly reservation, but as other resorts, and hopefully discounts, are released over the next year, we're not opposed to switching if something irresistible opens up. But we love the Polynesian and I think it'll be the perfect location to celebrate the return to our happy place.
Good luck to everyone who is working on rescheduling and replanning. I know how disappointing everything has been, and I'm sorry for the ups and downs you must have experienced as Disney changed things (and changed things, then changed them again!)
Ten days should give you plenty of time to enjoy Disney and do some of the other things too. I stayed at CBR about fifteen years ago. I really loved the theme of it. I know it has changed some since I was there but I expect the tropical vibe is still the same. Perfect for a summer vacation!
CarrieW - any idea when you think you will go to WDW and where you might stay while there? I will put your name on the list and add the details later when you know.
Amy do you have plans for a trip next summer? If so, I can add you to the list.
We are still undecided about next year. Most likely we are going to go ahead and book and then if things are still too bad we will cancel. I do think though at this point we may end up booking for July 2021 since we will now most likely be driving from PA instead of flying so we may need to tack on extra days and will have more time to do that in July. I will let you know though if we do end up booking in June. Thanks!
I added you to the list. Just let me know if your dates change due to availability. My mother and I always thought the Poly would be a dream 
resort to stay at. Enjoy!Hi!
Welcome to our group! I have always thought it would be fun to go to WDW with extended family, but I know it must be a nighmare to plan for such a large group. I think it should be super fun with the 8 girls you have going all preteens or teens. 
You put the dates down as 2020, but I assume you mean 2021.
! It is a lot harder to plan a trip with so many people mainly because each likes to plan a bit differently. My parents love to park hop with no real plans (except the Fastpasss+ choices) and have down time while at the Rose and Crown in EPCOT, while I am more of a planner that likes to have most of the day planned out and prefers to have more time in each park to fully enjoy what it has to offer. My sister hasn't been since high school, so she hasn't been since the days of running to grab a fastpass and no need for restaurant reservations months in advance. I do have a feeling that we will be splitting up from time to time so that everyone will be able to do a bit of what they enjoy the most. We do plan on having a couple of meals together as a group. We are looking at Raglan Road and Rainforest Cafe @ Animal Kingdom for sure. My oldest was going to be going down next year with her school band, but I am not sure if they will still be able to go. I had thought about being a chaperone to see what having a group of teens would be like, but I may have to go into this blind. At least I have them working on giving me lists of what they do not want to miss. Whatever happens, I know that I will just be happy to be back at Disney!
No need to ask me twice, but I asked if he was serious.
