DLR REOPENING SUPERTHREAD (DL & DCA TBA; VGC POSTPONED; DTD OPENED 7/09/20 & BVS 11/19/20): KEEP CHECKING FIRST PAGE FOR OFFICIAL DLR UPDATES!

I just got off the phone with MS as I’m 37 days out from my next VGC stay over Valentine’s weekend. This was a follow up call to one I made on October 31, my banking deadline.

The CM I spoke with confirmed VGC cancellation through January 28th. I was told again that “if” VGC was still not open, my banked points would be extended to the end of May 2021 and 2020 points would automatically be banked. Just a note that these are points from one of my VGC contracts with a March UY for anyone in a similar situation.

Thanks for this info. I’ve cancelled more reservations than I can count over the past year. I’ve got two out there now, one in April and one in May with banked pointe & a June UY. Nice to know there is possibility for not losing those points if for some reason it’s not able to open by then.

Not that I am surprised at all (who are we kidding, I was expecting it), my VGC reservation for 1/28 was cancelled. Looks like I could book 1/29 and later, but at this point, I assume those will be cancelled too. These points are banked Feb 2019 UY AKV points, so looks like those will be lost come 2/1. I tried hard to use them, but looks like those will be gone.

Will post in Speculation Thread too.

Thank you both for the updates. I have posted the new information on the first page.

My DVC reservation at GCH for 1/29 to 2/3 was cancelled this morning. Looks like you can still book 2/5 and beyond so seems like they moved to a 2 week rolling cancellation window as tomorrow would've been 14 days out for me.

I had a feeling this was coming. Very sad indeed.

I guess now I can feel better about cancelling my AP. I was having regrets not extending it.

The only bright side is that once DLR can get back to some sense of normalcy, the parks will be far less crowded. My pocket won't like it too much though!

Please don't feel too bad, yet. We don't know what the new membership options will be or even when the park will be open. I do understand your sadness, though. I raised my kids at DL, too and have many memories of our time together there. You'll always have those memories.

Let's hope this is good news and a move in the right direction:
CA to Lift SAH Orders on Monday, 1/25/21: https://www.yahoo.com/news/california-lift-stay-home-orders-075356191.html
Back to the color tiers, i.e. should be purple for L.A. County, OC, and SD County -- being back on the color chart means that the counties can start working again at moving toward that elusive yellow tier.

Glad you responded because I just thought they meant shield. I think this is what they're talking about:
