Posted in the April thread as well, but just got an email from Castle Inn and Suites saying they were canceling our room for April 9-11. Due to stay at home order now in place they are closed until April 19th per the email.

I think they're all being ordered to close in OC. We were coming down next week with our trailer and got the cancellation email from Anaheim RV Park this morning stating they've been 'ordered to close'. I assume hotels have been given similar orders, or at least not to accept new guests.

That’s what I was thinking too.

Does anyone know if the three-day SoCal Resident passes will be extended due to the cornoavirus closure? We used two days of our ticket prior to the park closing but would love to use our remaining day once it becomes safe enough to go. They were supposed to expire in May.

Yes. From the DL website:

At least they are being realistic about things. I wish that Disney would come out with an announcement. I know that they originally hoped that things would get back to normal before the very lucrative spring break/Easter season, but that is not going to happen.

Me too. We have reservations starting 4/3. they haven't canceled yet. I'm still holding out hope. We haven't been in so long. We were supposed to go at Thanksgiving but had to cancel because I couldn't get off work. We just bought AP's too. There's no way we will be able to get back until November.

Taking temperatures is almost completely worthless.... you are contagious way before you’re running a fever. I mean, yeah, I guess they could implement this, but if the virus is still raging it’s not going to stop outbreaks.

It isn't completely useless, it prevents people who are obviously sick from coming and getting others sick, even with other illnesses and lowering their immunity.

interesting, L.A. has orders all hotels to remain open at this time for that very reason, they need places people can go if they are stuck away from home.

Quick question. For those with passes, I know Disney will extend passes with the closure. However they still charge you for them if you do payments. Would you still renew or wait until all of this is over and the park is open?

Seeing as there is no longer any discount for renewing, I would not. The only reason to renew would be if you had one of the grandfathered passes that are no longer sold, but can be renewed.

Well, depending on how long the closure continues, would it bother you not to have a valid pass? Just asking because I know that some people really become sad when they don't have a pass, even if they know they will get another one in the future.

It won’t bother me. Although I’m sad my pass no longer expires in my birthday month because when I renew it was like a bday present for myself lol.

I think I’m just scarred by price increases, and removal of benefits I’ve seen. But I feel like when all of this is over Disney won’t be increasing prices, but you never know.

If you'll be buying a new AP at the same level (i.e. no loss of benefits), then the price should be the only unknown. But I really can't see Disney raising the prices again any time soon. If you will be going down to Flex, then I would renew before the expiration date so that you can keep your parking.

Oh man that’s right! I may stay with signature plus because it seemed like reservations filled up. But now with this whole pandemic thing maybe people won’t go

I wouldn't renew now. Mine doesn't expire until Sept and should be extended to October, I just got hit with the monthly fees for 3 APs and I could really use that money for something else right now. One of my daughters is out of work and can't pay her rent after next month. My husband and I are self employed and as you know, business is down. We are doing all we can to keep some money coming in and we have emergency savings, but when there isn't money coming in, watching money go out for something we can't access is no fun.

Good point. Even if I pay in full, $1000+ isn’t smart right now when things are so up in the air.

Since your pass will be extended anyway, I would wait to renew, as if you pass was valid before the closure, it should still be valid afterwards and thus eligible to be renewed without loosing anything you might be grandfathered into.

My conference this coming up week has been cancelled. Was at the grand Californian. My room refunded etc. however I bought conference tickets for the parks. I really just want a refund but either way my tickets have expiration date of 12 days or something after the start of the conference. I called ticketing a few times and every time they transfer me it goes to a number that rings once and then basically hangs up and asks me to fill out the after call survey. Anyone have experience of a number to call for this issue?

Yeah I just think spending that kind of money on something like a disney pass isn’t smart right now. You just never know..... ours expire in June and I’m sure they’ll get extended but I highly doubt we’ll renew this year. Way too much uncertainty.
