We're waitlisted for a 2 bedroom at SSR for April 1-6. This is our first time on a wait-list. Do you think I might still have a chance of getting the 2 bedroom with less than 3 weeks until our check-in date?

I did not clear a waitlist for BCV last August and have one now for either BWV or BCV for March that I don't think will clear.
It's not a big deal if I don't!
The BCV in August I thought might clear I got on for a 2 Bedroom months in advance. the current one I just got on about two weeks ago so chances were slim!

It doesn't sound too promising. We do have a 1 bedroom booked so I know we're still going. This trip is my 50th birthday present and my DD's 16th birthday present. We decided to bring a friend for my DD.I was hoping to be able to get a 2 bedroom so they could have some privacy. I could've
booked it originally but there were only 3 of us going at the time. I'm so sorry I didn't.
I'm keeping my fingers crossed!
How often did yiou call and check on the waitlist?

We were on a waiting list for any resort for any room size this past January (for the 1/2 marathon). Our wait list didn't come through. There was no timeshare rooms available anywhere. We had to play cash for a room (that is blasphemy:rotfl: )
Good luck:thumbsup2

Call to verify that you are still on the waitlist..I thought it dropped off at 1 month out, unless you called and renewed it.
dvc at last !

Kimmumum,

That's the week before Easter. I would think your chance is slim.

Make sure you do the call in when the waitlist ends at 7 days out. In early December I called after my waitlist expired and six days out from check in got my original waitlist......a BWV 1 bedroom...standard view. I know I was very lucky but obviously anything is possible!!
Good luck to you.

I had three studios reserved for April 14-19--today I cancelled one, so maybe you got my cancellation. That is great!

I am 0 for 2 on my waitlist attempts. I wish you much better luck somewhere in the next three weeks! :)

A few years ago we were waitlisted for a studio at VB. We didn't find out that it came through until we were checking in. Nice surprise!
The next day we were at lunch when DH gets a phone call. He had won a trip to WDW for the marathon. We were already signed up for it so they fixed us up with some other things.
Very magical trip to VB! pixiedust:

Yikes, my thoughts exactly!

We got our waitlist while we were are the BCV for our last night there. They didn't call us though. I went up to the front desk Tuesday late afternoon asked them to check and room came available for Thursday night so we didn't have to move to OKW. Good luck

I was waitlisted for what I thought was a 2 bedroom at the BWV's. I kept checking online to see if it came thru. I had to call ms concerning another trip and inquired about my waitlist. Ends up they had me waitlisting for a STUDIO and not the 2 bedroom. It was set up for automatic and I am sooo glad it didnt come thru! So now I have started the waitlist all over again for a 2 bed-

Last Thanksgiving, I was waitlisted for several months. They called me 3 days before arrival to say that Thanksgiving had come thru!:yay: I hope the GV waitlist comes thru at Christmas:worship:

I did call MS yesterday to make sure they had us waitlisted for the correct room. They did. I do keep checking but so far nothing has come through yet. I'm still hoping it works out.

My waitlist expires tomorrow and it doesn't appear I will clear. LOL!
I may call next week and see what I can do, but I think I may be happier at SSR anyway.
