During Hurricane Irma, Disney lifted its usual restrictions and allowed resort guests to bring pets into their hotel rooms and villas.  A series of rules and restrictions were put in place, dictating that leashes be used at all times, certain areas were completely off limits (restaurants, lounges, pools), designated animal relief areas and a requirement that pets never be left unattended in guest rooms.  Nevertheless, outside of compliance with Federal ADA laws, this would seem to mark the first time that Disney resorts opened their doors to four-legged friends. 

 Topic:  Do you agree or disagree with the decision to permit pets in Disney resort rooms?  Should the pet restrictions be lifted entirely?

The final Disney Vacation Club hurricane-related closure will be lifted on Monday morning.
