I doubt you'll be flying in on Monday morning.
Agree and am stunned there are still people who think their flights during the riskiest period of this storm aren't going to be disrupted.

Let me know what you find out. I am wondering if they are allowing the points to go back to original status or if they are putting them into holding account.I'm on hold with DVC member services. I am fairly certain there is no availability to move our trip from this weekend (9/10-9/15) to the following (9/16-21)...if by some miracle there is, we will move the trip. If not, we will cancel. Not sure what happens to our points. I'm honestly so frazzled I can't remember if the points were current use year or banked. So I'm hoping we don't lose the points completely. Either way, if we cancel the trip we will book something off-site for cash for that later week and try to salvage our vacation. We weren't doing Disney, so we will need to reschedule our Discovery Cove day. Not happy about having to eat $600+ to book a cash reservation somewhere but honestly we desperately need a vacation.
Assuming Florida is still standing of course.
Yes, I fully understand how Garden Grocer works. I do not know if they shop ahead or day of. For example if they shop ahead, my chances may be better.
It it tough to say what a "typical" hurricane is as many behave differently.Ok, then need to discuss it in 2 different ways. There are 2 different parts of Harvey to discuss. The rain that Houston got had nothing to do with East side/West side of the Hurricane. The winds that came with it when it first blew in were typical Hurricane behavior.
Wondering the same thing. Haven't cancelled yet though.. Hoping for the best. Going 9/11 -9/17...Let me know what you find out. I am wondering if they are allowing the points to go back to original status or if they are putting them into holding account.
I listened to his press conference this morning. Lots of good solid advice while telling people to get themselves prepared now and get out if local officials order evacuations.I live in Tampa and am monitoring the storm. Keep in mind, no matter the plot this is a massive, massive storm over 400 miles wide. FL is a little over 100 miles wide. ALL of Florida will be effected. The gov. is asking for ALL of Florida to prepare. Last year Matthew followed a path similar to the current spaghetti models. Matthew was smaller and less intense. Disney closed for Matthew. The path can shift, the forecasts can change. If you can change your plans I would. As a Floridian, we all need to prepare. If you can make adjustment and allow for more Disney employees to be with their families during the storm it would be appreciated by those employees and their families.
Our family has supplies and hotel reservations in the event we need to evacuate.
If you think the media is overreacting then please, listen to Gov. Rick Scott. His advice is sound and should be taken into consideration.
I know many have trips that they are looking forward to, but I can tell you you will enjoy it more without a hurricane.
I pointed that same fact out earlier and was told I was "scaring" people.Excellent and prudent point. Hopefully, it will be heeded, particularly by anyone planning to drive to WDW and those intending to shop locally for provisions after arriving.
I hope it just goes east and out to sea... This is tampa news btw
Even if they do I wouldn't wait on it. I would stalk the site. The flights are going fast. If you wait on an alert you may miss out on rebooking choices.Does anyone know if Southwest emails you when they issue a Travel Advisory that affects your flight? I'm still hoping they extend to the 12th...
I don't know yet. I'm not changing my plans yet because I don't know what I would change it to. If I have to cancel I will.I doubt you'll be flying in on Monday morning.
They didn't notify me and my flight is on the 11th. I haven't changed yet. I wonder if I changed it and had to change it again if they would still waive the difference.Does anyone know if Southwest emails you when they issue a Travel Advisory that affects your flight? I'm still hoping they extend to the 12th...
Check their website. Travel waivers were listed yesterday so flights may be harder to find today.Does anyone know if Southwest emails you when they issue a Travel Advisory that affects your flight? I'm still hoping they extend to the 12th...
Look at the date: that is from yesterday. I have no idea what it is now, but that is not correct.Have no idea what models some TV station in Tampa is using. Here are the ones Weather Underground is currently showing:
Yes. They will not refund the airfare for AA. Lesson learned, do not book airfare through Disney. AA travel agent told me she would have been liberal with the voucher policy but since I booked through Disney she could not issue a voucher. Disney was great about refunding hotel and park tickets, but I'm out airfare. Better safe than sorry.For anybody canceling, did you book airfare through Disney for AA? I am on hold now with customer service, but I am curious how they handle the airfare. I can't do anything with it through AA website as it tells me to contact my travel agent (WDW).
