If you’re in the middle of rescheduling your Disney vacation due to theme park closures, we’ve got you covered. Navigating Disney discounts can be challenging — especially since it’s disappointing to have to postpone a trip you’ve been looking forward to. Here are our best tips for how to get the best price on your rescheduled Disney vacation.
Keep in Mind…
Disney has waived cancellation fees! That means that you can cancel or postpone your trip at no penalty to you. If you are wondering how to get a refund or cancel your trip to Disney World or Disneyland, you can read all about that in our FAQ guide here. So if you are trying to decide whether you should cancel your vacation altogether or reschedule for a later date, keep in mind that Disney’s cancellation policies are very flexible right now. You can also Disney’s cancellation policies on the official websites for Disneyland Resort and Walt Disney World Resort.Â
Also keep in mind that Disneyland Resort and Walt Disney World Resort are both accepting reservations beginning June 1. An official date for the parks reopening has not yet been announced, but if you are looking to reschedule your trip you can book a reservation for June 1 or later.
