Resorts will likely reopen as demand increases. Right now, the only resorts taking 2021 reservations are the ones that have an official announced reopening date. Closed resorts include the All Stars, Port Orleans resorts and I think Wilderness Lodge. I'm sure there are others but these are the ones I know of for sure. You can always modify your booking once more resorts are added to the reopen list (hopefully prior to your travel date)

no. No offcial word. But since it's not scheduled to open that's what they're telling people. Just a few weeks ago they were telling everyone nothing but DVC and FW would be opening for the rest of the year.
I agree. It is hard to close resorts and move people, easier to just stay with the ones they have now and open up when demand/capacity increases.Resorts will likely reopen as demand increases.

No no official announcement just what phone CMs have been saying and what we can see listed as available for 2021.
Yes she said that Pop Preferred room was not available. Which ultimately I am ok with because its still an upgrade and I really wanted Pop to being with anyways.
. Very tiny. The bathroom looks bigger than the room! It’s just me and hubs (no kids allowed!) so I totally understand why that room was offered. Hoping Skyliner is up and running then. Should be pretty amazing.
I believe that if they give you a move, they won't necessarily give you a "refund" for the lack of CL, but they shouldn't charge you the CL price so you should be charged less at check-in. If you don't feel like the CCV is similar or an upgrade, call back and let them know that. I'm not sure what the policies are anymore, maybe they have this as a "lateral move" in the matrix they have to follow, but let them know your concerns and hopefully they can work with you.
I think because they went through a TA, the TA was able to handle it and then it showed up on MDE.
Disney won't just move you, you will have to call. The people seeing automatic changes in MDE either have a TA or have booked with a third-party booking site such as Hotels.com. It's possible that the CL Signature Services may call you for a change, but it's not 100% confirmed if they will or when they will.
Some people have experienced this recently, and they've either showed up to their resort and been "walked" to another, or they're notified when boarding the DME that their resort was changed and that they'll be taken to another resort. I think that if you want certainty on where you're staying, call back in a few days. I don't think that there's any reason for the phone lines to continue being clogged up so for long - it seems that park pass issues have been cleared up for the most part and dining reservations can be made online now. I did hear that they'll be contacting AP's via email regarding how to move forward with the continuation or cancellation of passes in early July, so I wouldn't want you getting stuck up in those inevitable calls!I have been calling (like once every two days)! lol It's like an act of Congress to get through their system. I have plenty of time though and I am not in a mad rush to make the changes. I'd rather let the phone lines be open for others who have July and August reservations. I'm scanning the boards to see what others are being offered so that I have a general idea of what they're replacing Wilderness Lodge CL with.
On a different note, I'm wondering what they'll do for people who don't call in time? If the hotel is closed they're obviously not staying there... will they cancel their reservations or will they simply move them?
Yes the tower studios are very small. I think you will enjoy the resort though. The only way I would have chose Saratoga Springs studio over the Riviera was if I wanted to be closed to Disney Springs. Enjoy your vacation. You will have a blast!Dates: 8/9-8/13
Original resort: POFQ king bed room
Offered: Saratoga Springs studio or Riviera tower
We chose: Riviera tower
Excited since we wouldn’t otherwise be at the highest tier of resorts ever in our lives, and yet the size of the room has me like
