Sometimes I think I understand how all this works and other times I feel clueless.
I have a 5 night reservation at BLT for the end of September. We would like to try to get in at the BWI. This morning around 8:45 I saw 3 nights available online. Since I borrowed all of the points for my reservation I waited until 9am to call to change the reservation instead of booking online. There was 25 minute hold time on the phone. By the time it was my turn my online session holding the 3 nights had expired.
MS canceled the 3 nights at BLT and then went to grab the nights at BWI. By then only 2 nights were available. By some pixie dust MS was able to get back those nights at BLT for me. So I am back to the same 5 nights as my original reservation.
So, did I handle this correctly? I have to wait to call MS instead of doing anything online correct? We don't want to borrow any more points.
If I set up waitlists and they came through I wouldn't have the issue of maybe losing the first reservation correct?
