However, we will continue to make adjustments as necessary and will notify Guests immediately should there be changes to their itinerary. At this time, the following guidelines are in effect for all trips and will continue to evolve as more information becomes available:

Guests who have air travel booked through Adventures by Disney will automatically have their flights rebooked on an alternate route. Guests who booked their own air travel arrangements should contact their airlines directly to make the appropriate changes.
TEMPORARY CANCELLATION POLICY UPDATE
We are offering a temporary adjustment to our Adventure Vacation Date Change Policy to provide more flexibility for our Guests.
Guests currently booked on adventures through May 31, 2020 can change their reservation and receive 100% credit to be used toward a future adventure. Guests traveling March 12 through April 15, 2020, are asked to contact Adventures by Disney at least 24 hours prior to their adventure start date to request a change.
Guests may select a new travel date and/or an alternate adventure by December 31, 2020, by calling (855) 223-0025 or (407) 566-8345. The credit is non-refundable and standard prevailing rates will apply. Any new bookings made on future trips through the end of June, 2020 will be subject to fully refundable deposits up until the final payment date.
Additional Information
According to public health authorities, Guests can help prevent the spread of coronavirus (COVID-19) and many other illnesses by frequently washing their hands with soap and water for at least 20 seconds, especially after using the restroom and before eating. Parents can supervise their children to ensure they wash their hands thoroughly. Guests are also advised to cover their nose and mouth with a tissue or upper sleeve when sneezing, and avoid sneezing or coughing into their hands or without covering their nose and mouth.
Updates will be posted online as new information becomes available. Guests with specific questions may reach out to our Contact Center at (855) 223-0025 or (407) 566-8345.
