    ROFR Thread Oct to Dec 2022 *PLEASE SEE FIRST POST FOR INSTRUCTIONS & FORMATTING TOOL*

    My wife just called Disney for a 25 point add-on. They want $240 per point. I think I can dang near double the points for that kinda money if I'm patient. $172 is a significant savings over $240 though. :) I decided to start shopping for points and I'm in no hurry. I'm waiting a few months...

My wife is in the hospital and.... even if all goes well, she will not be in good shape for the trip. I don't know how quickly they act on wait lists and such but I am going...

    BEST BWV room

    We booked DVC points. We own there but this is our first time staying a Boardwalk. AS far as the noise goes, I like to make a ruckus of my own.... So I'm good with a little background fun noise. :cool1: I'd like to see some fireworks but I sure we will be happy with whatever view we get...

    2013 Food & Wine Dates?

    Are there any negatives to going on Sept. 29th (too early)?? This is our first time and we did a BWV add-on specifically to be able to attend Food & Wine. We love Disney and figured we couldn't go wrong with Adding BWV so.... here we are ?? My wife got a Studio Boardwalk View for us.

    Wait List Advice

    Wow there sure is a lot of movement on these reservations. I look a few times a day and so does my wife. Unbelievable !!! One minute you look and there is a day missing from the stay you want, then no days available, it gets pretty exciting, LOL We were able to get the full amount of days we...

    Book now or wait?

    Oddly enough, the 3rd week of December is open for Studio Theme Park views so we had a discussion. According to some, that week should not be too crowded so we decided to book it. We still have the 2nd week wait listed which might come through. I wanted a Theme Park View for Christmas Time...

    Room request for BLT?????

    Yes, North Tower, Even Numbered Rooms. I don' t think they let you be more specific than that. We had a view of the fireworks both times we asked for that and we were all the way on the WRONG end in a One Bedroom. LOL I loved it !! Get something above the 8th floor as well. I'm trying to...

    Which Resort in WDW Should We Choose?

    We own at BLT and if you can swing the points book a few nights at a ONE BEDROOM Theme Park View. The Bathroom tub is large and the bath opens up into the masterbedroom. You can open the curtains and watch "wishes" (fireworks over the Castle in the Magic Kingdom) from the bathroom or bedroom...

    Book now or wait?

    At BLT - No Studio Rooms available presently for the first 2 weeks in December. We waitlisted a week and managed to book an acceptable stay minus one day. People say there will be movement at the 7 month window but I remain skeptical. There are 1 bedrooms available for early December. Good...

    Wait List Advice

    We didn't have any issues last year and we booked later than this. I guess people have more money this year. LOL We can go anytime we want so it isn't a big deal. I kinda liked that time of year because the parks were not very crowded and we got to see the Christmas lights. I booked almost...

    Wait List Advice

    We just waitlisted both weeks separately. Hopefully one will come through. I'm not into jumping all around, changing rooms, additional reservations, etc.. If we don't get it, I'll chalk it up to stupidity and take my lumps. :thumbsup2 To me the real vacation is staying exactly where I want...

    If Disney can't fix something as simple as that, I'd have to laugh.

    Wait List Advice

    I'd like to get a Studio Theme Park View at BLT in early December. We are wondering if wait listing this far ahead we have a chance at getting the rooms we want. I called Member Services and found out that we can have 2 wait lists which is what we are going to do. This 11 month stuff happens...
