FYI - I received a cancellation notice for my pre-paid lodging reservation to stay at a property in Arlington, VA for the Inauguration (assuming it would be TRUMP) on dates Jan. 19-21. I thought staying in VA would be less risky, but apparently the lock-down spreads out wider than DC itself. At least I'm getting refunded though, so that's a plus.

But there goes any hope of getting to witness POTUS being re-inaugurated and taking part in that historic event. :-( Wonder if my flights will also be cancelled. They're non-refundable flights, so I'm screwed if the airline themselves doesn't cancel them.

Here's the exact language from my cancellation notice:

"In response to local, state and federal officials asking people not to travel to the Washington, D.C., metro area during the inauguration, we are canceling reservations in the area and will not be accepting any new reservations at this time."

They're closing down all the hotels, from what I heard.

AirBnB made a public statement the other day that they've canceled all their DC area reservations for Inauguration week too. Wish the damn airlines would CANCEL my DC flights for the Inauguration (that was SUPPOSED to be for Trump) so I could get a refund instead of me cancelling them. If I cancel my DC flights, I won't be able to get a refund - only credit towards future flights. The bastards!
