How long can my opponents stay on vacation time?

I seem to have a huge number of opponents who have ran out of time but just sit in my games list (36 of them!). I think they may have been or on vacation time from what I gather but it's cluttering up my games feed. How long will these games sit there for and can anything be done?

How does Vacation work? How much time do I get?

 

How much time do you get?

All new Chess.com accounts start out with 7 days of vacation time.

All members then accrue an additional 2 vacation days per month: one on the 1st, & one on the 15th.

Vacation time is capped at a certain maximum so that you can't keep accumulating vacation time forever.  Your maximum allowable vacation time depends on your membership level:

(Note also that all premium members enjoy "auto-timeout protection," meaning that their vacation (assuming they have any left) will be automatically enabled if they are at risk of losing any of their games on time.)
