There will be some changes to Disney World Merchandise when Walt Disney World reopens next month.

Merchandise Locations
In merchandise locations throughout Walt Disney World Resort, Guests will continue to discover favorite Disney items, with some modifications to the shopping experience that will help us manage capacity and foster physical distancing.

New Product Launches: New collection product launches and limited-edition merchandise will not be available for in-person purchases at Walt Disney World Resort until further notice. As always, Guests can find these items on shopDisney, subject to availability.
Pin Trading: We will continue to offer Guests the opportunity to pin trade with Cast Members through the use of pin boards in select locations. Cast pin trading with lanyards will not be available at this time to maintain physical distancing.
Delivery Option: Package delivery to the front of our theme parks or to Disney Resort hotels will be suspended. However, shipping merchandise to Guests’ homes continues to be available.
Dressing Rooms: For the time being, dressing rooms will not be available.
Returns: In-person returns will be available upon the reopening of our merchandise locations.

In addition to all the other news being shared by Disney World today referencing hotel stays, we’ve got a newly pushed back date for cancellation and change fee waivers.

Beach Club Resort in Disney World

Previously, Disney World had stated that cancellation and change fees on hotel reservations would be waived through “the end of the closures.” Now that we have a reopening date for the theme parks, Disney has also pushed back the its date allowing guests to update and modify — and even cancel — their reservations even further.

The powers that be at Disney World know that things are going to be very…DIFFERENT…at the parks and resorts in the coming months. As a result, they’re allowing guests a few more months to make up their minds about whether or not to take the plunge and travel to the parks this year.

Guests can now change or cancel their vacations up to October 3rd, 2020, without incurring a fee from Disney World.

Updated language on Disney World’s website

Note that if you’ve booked your Disney World vacation through a third party, cancellation, change fees, and deadlines may be different. Check with them directly for updates to change and cancellation fees.
