From the Speculation Superthread:

jacandjan said:
I called the AP line on Friday about our recently expired (11/11) Flexpass refund. I was told that passes with expirations through 10/31 were being processed now. They could not give me a date for our refund but said it could be by the end of November but no guarantee.

[midnight star]

A few official updates. As a PP mentioned Orange County is in PURPLE tier. DTD is still allowed to open in this tier but it means no indoor dining and capacity for retail will decrease to 25%.

Can I not book PPH online past December? Looking to re-book for May - is calling the only option?

We pushed our April trip to November - cancelled that. Booked December simply to visit family. But now with the quarantine advisory, and purple tier, will cancel December as well. Hate living across the country from my family these days. So sad.

From page one, first post:
Update 11/09/20:
WDTC has notified TAs that on site reservations have been cancelled through 12/31/20. There are no new on site reservations for 2021 at this time.
Hang in there and keep checking the first page of this superthread -- when Disney starts allowing on site reservations for next year, the update will be posted there.

Have people gotten some sort of notification yet on their cancellations? I haven't seen a refund yet or any communication on our PPH December reservation.

 

[tankgirl!]

I never received any notification when my November GCH reservation was canceled. I called eventually and they said it would just show up on my credit card. And they stated, as theluckyrabbit indicated, that they weren't taking any reservations in 2021 and had no idea when they would. In fact, the poor customer service agent said he was being laid off in a few days. I felt terrible!

 

[theluckyrabbit]

Sad, but expected news.

The DIS article -- no DLR candy canes this year:

Thanks. I'll keep watching. Just double checked and I'm kind of surprised it hasn't shown up yet.
