I've read different posts over the years here on how waitlists get filled.....and many have stated (and I've always assumed as well) that the waitlist requests are filled sometime in the hours member services are closed.....and that it's possible to snag an open room before a waitlist grabs it....which IS VERY possible and I'm sure I've done that. But I had a waitlist for 1 night that was just filled.....at it happened around noon today. Because I was looking for that room, and because I've had success finding an open date while having an open waitlist I checked the website around 9:30 am and there was NO availability for that night, and my waitlist WAS still active. Got an email around 12:30 pm that was the welcome...we can't wait email that confirms a reservation. In my experience I get those emails about a half hour after booking my logical guess is that my waitlist was filled around noon.
So....no one really knows how and when they fill waitlists. In the past I haven't always gotten an email notifying my when a waitlist was successful either.
