Guests Will Start Receiving Emails Regarding Delayed Resort Re-openings
With Walt Disney World delaying the reopening of some of their resorts as part of their phased reopening, they will be sending out this email to Guests that currently have trips booked at those resorts.
The email reads:
We hope you’re looking forward to your upcoming vacation as much as we’re looking forward to having you here. Unfortunately, Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort is no longer planned to be open on the dates of your visit. We understand the inconvenience this may cause––especially if your plans had already been changed before.
Please accept our sincerest apologies and know how much we appreciate you choosing to stay with us. We’re happy to reaccommodate you at one of the Disney Resort hotels that will be open during your stay. Of course, this will happen at no additional charge. Please contact your Travel Professional to discuss the Resort and room type options available to you and to assist with modifying your Disney Resort hotel. This modification will have no impact to other vacation experiences you may have booked, such as Theme Park reservations or dining.
Thanks for your patience as we all navigate these times together.
