Also,if the NHC issues a hurricane warning for Orlando or the area where the customer lives within seven days of a customer’s arrival date, they can reschedule or cancel Walt Disney Travel Company Magic Your Way vacation packages and most room-only reservations without paying cancellation or change fees. *This does not apply to those who booked their vacation through any service other than Disney, though. Customers could still have to pay cancellation or rescheduling fees imposed by third-party vendors, reports News Week.
