Adding another person to reservation

[famy27]

We are staying at SSR from Nov 20-26. We have friend who will be joining us mid-stay. We are under the occupancy limit for our room, so I'd like to be able to add him to our reservation. What's the easiest way to do that? He has an AP and MB already.

It can depend- Are you booked for a package, or room-only?

 

[famy27]

Room only

 

[wdwrich]

Room only

In that case, I would just call and him to the reservation now.

Since it is room only, you might be able to call and add him the necessary days. But since he is not showing up until mid-stay, I would just wait until you get to the resort and add him for the days needed.

Is this a DVC reservation or room -only through reservations?

If it's DVC then call member Services and add him, if it's reservations then call Reservations and add him. The issue there is that if you have more than two adults in the room, you'll be charged the per-night fee for the extra adult(s). You can let them know when you call which nights he will be there. Don't know if that will help.

If the reservation is thru DVC, I thought there wasn't a fee for extra adults (up to the room max).

The first night is DVC points. The rest is on an RCI exchange.

the extra adult fee is only an issue if you have a regular reservation.

If you are on an exchange, you can call DVC member services. They should have provided you with the number.

The first night, are they your points or someone else's? If they are someone else's you will need to get that person to call Member Services and add him for that night, since it won't be considered your reservation.

Just called MS and added our friend. As always, they were very helpful. There was no fee for the additional adult. Thanks for all of the help!
