AKV vs AKL STANDARD CL

[Kata]

Okay I plead ignorance on the whole DVC area ,but did I read that AKV people have access to AKL CL? If so I am wondering if they are also eligible for the safaris? I currently have 3 nights booked standard AKL CL booked for 12/07,at this point I am paying rack rate,but if I can still get the CL perks I may try and book a AKL studio if that is at all possible. Can anyone give me any information on the AKV privilges,I just feel lost on the DVC thread
Thanks!!!!!!!!!!

The new villas providing CL access for DVC members will have all the concierge perks, including the ability to book the special safaris.

That being said, you're likely best off keeping your cash reservation. There will be a pretty limited # of villas offering the CL access, and as they'll be some of the only villas to open first, I would bet that these are going to go fast, and to DVC members that likely have bought points at AKV. If I had to guess, you probably won't see these villas open to regular bookings through CRO for quite some time (maybe not even until the new building opens), and you probably won't find too many DVC members renting their AKV points.

Just my two cents - good luck!

With a December 2007 reservation, I would NOT try to get a AKV CL nor do I think you would be able to get one. First, they aren't even available for DVC members to reserve yet and when they do open up, I know they will go quickly. According to stuff I've read over on the DVC boards, there will be only 5 2BR lockoffs (total of 10 rooms if all rented as 1BRs and studios)on the 6th floor that will have CL access.

Not all AKV rooms will have access to the safari; just the AKV CL ones. Keep your rooms - you will have a nice savannah view from the 4th floor. The views on the 6th floor aren't guaranteed and they're pretty bad anyway.
