That site is allowed. The easy way to self check is to type out the address of the site/tweet source in question, hit Preview. If the address shows up as *********.com, for example, then that site is banned here, so don't post it.
Here is the DIS article:

Here is the governor's news briefing from earlier today (10/19/20):

The new guidelines were published today. They don’t sound promising for an opening any time soon.

Nope, Sounds like DLR would need to be in Phase 4? I'm not local so not sure how CA. stages work. But I've seen Phase 4 and I've seen Yellow mentioned.

Orange County CA is currently in the red tier - and not yet close to moving to the next tier.

Welp. Guess I can plan on family trips elsewhere until at least 2024.

This is so depressing. I can’t imagine us in yellow for a year at least.

Someone in the Speculation Superthread posted about being able to book into January, but maybe that was a glitch? And I hope WDTC sends out an official email notice soon. I don't want to update the first page until we have something official to work with.

When I was playing around the other day I found you could book the first few days of 2021 IF you started your reservation in 2020. For example, you could do Dec 30-Jan 3, but not Jan 1-3. I think the option went to January 5.

Good to know -- thank you for the update.

Thanks - I was looking to book in March & the calendar would not go out that far.

Something I learned yesterday is if your pass is paid in full and has expired the first person you speak with when you call will say that you can no longer ask for the refund option. I had to be transferred to a supervisor in order to get that option. It isn't anywhere in any of the guidance being put out so I was unaware of it.

That’s frustrating. Disney is notorious for giving different info depending on which CM you talk to. When I called before my pass expired I was told I could wait until after it expired for a refund so I won’t be happy if they say I can longer get one.
