I will! Thank youNo, no opening date has been given yet for BVS -- only "sometime in November." So let us know if you find out anything!

Knotts teased an announcement for tomorrow, so Disney will probably drop some unannounced news tomorrow as wellNo, no opening date has been given yet for BVS -- only "sometime in November." So let us know if you find out anything!
I hope they don’t charge for parking, or at least not charge APs who have included parking.Yesterday David at Fresh Baked speculated two things, both of which don’t sit well with me.
1. Once DCA reopens part of BVS, they’ll begin to charge for parking once again.
2. Sig/Sig+ AP holders will not have parking fees waived, despite it being included in our AP.
Seems a bit nervy to charge someone to park... merely so that they can come and spend money on food and merch at an ailing business. Disney should *encourage* guests to come to DTD, not discourage them.
They currently aren’t using more than half the simba lot as it is. I don’t see them needing more than the rest of the simba lot with opening BVS. I also do not see them charging for parking until the theme parks reopen because there will be uproar if they try to charge.I hope they don’t charge for parking, or at least not charge APs who have included parking.
Has anything been said about opening M&F structure? I feel like with Buena Vista St. open, the demand is going to go up, and they will need more parking than Simba can handle.
So when they close Simba lot, it’s due to DTD capacity, not the lot capacity? I wonder how much capacity will increase with the opening of Buena Vista Street.They currently aren’t using more than half the simba lot as it is.

Correct. When I’ve headed out of DTD, and the Simba lot is closed, it’s only about half full. If they don’t open the garage they will probably just fill up SimbaSo when they close Simba lot, it’s due to DTD capacity, not the lot capacity?

I wondered that too. I thought maybe they were thinking in terms of the park getting to open. If that does happen, then I assume DTD would begin to charge for parking, so restaurants could validate.Not sure what they will do about parking...but found it interesting that Catal listed they would validate parking for the Santa event should the need arise. Why would they even mention that if parking was going to remain free?
Earlier this summer when I had hopes of DL being open by the end of the year, I had booked Courtyard for early December. I think it was in August when I got an emailed cancelation saying they'd be closed until December 17, 2020. We were also toying around with a DtD trip and I tried booking at Courtyard...no availability for any late December date I tried. I have a feeling they extended their closure date.We more than likely will stay at the Hyatt or a hotel not on the Harbor side unless we can get the Courtyard which seems booked.
That must be it. Because i did try some other dates in Nov and Dec and it showed not available.Earlier this summer when I had hopes of DL being open by the end of the year, I had booked Courtyard for early December.

Someone posted yesterday in the Speculation Superthread (and in the December Check In thread, too?) that the Courtyard is cancelling dates through March 1, 2021.Earlier this summer when I had hopes of DL being open by the end of the year, I had booked Courtyard for early December.

I posted this in the Dec thread, but I thought I'd share it here too. I got curious and looked to see how far out Courtyard is canceling reservations. Looks like it's all the way out to March 1☹.Cal-Pie said:
No big surprise here, but I received an email today from Courtyard waterpark canceling my reservation 12/18-12/23. They were supposed to reopen on the 18th, so it looks like that is no longer the case.
