I'm a new member (BWV) planning my first trip for next fall - a very popular time of year. I've managed to get the room I want on a Saturday night, then again Monday - Saturday. I'm missing the Sunday. It's a standard view 2-bedroom, which I understand are hard to come by.
Currently, I'm waitlisted for the Sunday night, so my questions are:
1. Is it likely that the one night will come up on the wait list? I'm also stalking as I know there is a lot of movement as people walk their reservations.
2. How long should I wait/stalk - the reservation is for mid-September?
3. As I would prefer not to move multiple times, when should I abandon the hope of the waitlist, drop the Saturday night and book the preferred room for Saturday/Sunday? I'm assuming before the 7-month window. That way we would only have to move once.
I'm just a little worn out getting up at 5am trying to get the room and would appreciate any wisdom you could pass along. I also have a small contract (80pts) so this is using 3 years worth of points for me, which I don't mind as it's for my 40th birthday and want to include my Disney family. Travel party is 5 adults - 2 couples and a single.
