Thank you all! I put in a request to be at the "bottom" of the reverse 3 near the elevator on the 2nd floor. We'll see what we get in a few months.
What is meant by "bottom of the reverse 3"?
Requests are granted in order given. If lead request is granted, but after doing so they cannot meet the second request without reversing the first, you will not get the second request.
If you want a room that overlooks the Sunset savanna, which has giraffes and zebras (Pembe does not), then best lead request to make is room overlooking Sunset savanna (usually granted because more than 80% of the savanna rooms at Kidani overlook Sunset). Also, one should never request just near an "elevator," because, with three elevators along each of the two wings, that request can be met by putting you anywhere in the Kidani building. A near-elevator request needs to name the particular elevator. If you want shortest trip to pool, which is outside the north wing, best request to make is for "near the Rafiki elevator. If you want quick access to the buses, which are outside the south wing, best request is one for near the Timon elevator. Granting of either of those requests also provides good animal views.
Any requests should be made via contacting Member Services (email, chat, or phone) and after doing so you should not make any requests provided in the check-in section of the online system, because doing so will wipe ones made through MS, and some of the requests that can be made in the online check-in section are of little to no value, e.g, the check-in system allows you to request near an "elevator," but you cannot name the elevator.
