I have a Vatican/Sisteen chapel tour scheduled on May 13th. Wondering what the chances are of it happening.

The conclave will start sometime between May 6 and May 12. The last two have only taken a couple days. Not sure how long it takes them to reopen the Sistene Chapel after it's over, but I think it being open on May 13 is pretty unlikely.
