I applied some NUC last year to a stay in Disney last year - I got a room upgrade (beautiful view of the Anaheim highway) and then about 2 weeks before new years, I got an email about "we are sorry we could not honor your request, so we are returning your NUC"....which was odd....and now, what was I supposed to do with 4-5 certificates right before the end of the year......
