I can't believe in the span of a month I've re-booked a Sept trip because I didn't think testing/isolation would be dropped in time, regretted it because things seemed to be moving towards full/unrestricted travel, and now I'm wondering if Delta (the variant, not the airline) will cause everything to shut down again. What a ride.I was coming on here to get a sense about what other Canadians are doing about their trips in August and September.
We still have time to decide as we are going Sept 12... but if things don't improve over the next few weeks, we are going to cancel and cut our losses.
I can't believe that Florida is so bad with cases right now considering there is a vaccine.
I mean, if you're going to take a resort-heavy trip, you really couldn't have picked a better location than Poly Bungalows -especially now that they've just finished refurbishing them - they're GORGEOUS.We leave in less than a week. We are still going, mainly because we will forfeit DVC points if we don't use them now. However, this will be a very different trip for us. Extremely limited park time. No waiting in ride lines. We have a VIP Tour booked for the last day, so we'll do our most wanted rides then (no line waiting). We also got a Polynesian Bungalow, so we will be spending a lot of time there (we love them) -- no elevators or anything. All in all just playing it as smart as possible and doing outdoor non-park activities while avoiding standing in crowds or ride lines. So it's going to be a new kind of Disney vacation, but still amid the magic. We plan to mask almost always when there are other people around in big numbers (even outdoors).
Yeah, it sorted of worked out the best it could with having all of the extra DVC piled up from the past 18 months Last time we stayed in them we didn't want to leave and would blow off FastPasses just to chill on the deck. Now that will be a more important option to have, lol.I mean, if you're going to take a resort-heavy trip, you really couldn't have picked a better location than Poly Bungalows -especially now that they've just finished refurbishing them - they're GORGEOUS.
I know this might not be the trip you originally envisioned but I have to say I think this sounds like a fantastic trip you have put together!!We leave in less than a week.

Thank you very much We have adjusted our expectations along the way...and in a strange way it is sort of fun planning this alt/non park Disney vacation. Now, as you can appreciate, as Canadians our main stress is passing the covid test when we're down there so that we can fly back home :0I know this might not be the trip you originally envisioned but I have to say I think this sounds like a fantastic trip you have put together!!
Florida is likely to get a lot worse which is scary but hopefully after this wave will be an extended period of low case numbers. I'm really hoping things are better by December.

Same. Well, Nov 27-Dec 5That's when we go too.
Same. Well, Nov 27-Dec 5
Our plans are during Christmas holidays and every day, I'm thinking we'll need to cancel.
I was sure I would be getting more assurance as each day goes...but Florida is getting worse.
It seems to be about 6 months from peak to peak if you look at the graphs. Hopefully, timing for December should be good to be at the lower end.
I saw on the news that Disney is mandating vaccines for all its employees
