Hey everyone! My dh and I are new BLT owners as well! This past September we bought 260 points at BLT and CAN'T WAIT to go home! We've planned a trip for Feb 2010, but will be staying at SSR since there was no availability at BLT. We are however wait listed for a 1 bdrm. We've already started thinking about our first BLT stay, if our waitlist falls through, and are looking at Dec 2010. YEY!

SOOOO happy I found this thread!

YEAAA!!! We just purchased too but since it was so late booking for Dec., we're staying at OKW.... Hey, I was just thankful that there was ANYTHING left at this point! In Jan. (11 months out) I'm booking us for Dec.2010 at BLT! We can't wait! ! Hope to see you there! April

We just bought into BLT in early September, and just finished a 5 day/4 night trip from October 12 to 16.
I am in the middle of posting some pictures.
I thought it was a fantastic place to stay, if anyone has any questions, let me know, if I can answer, I will be happy to!

We sooo wanted to go in Dec as well, but silly me thought I had to wait for "OFFICIAL" paperwork to book a vacation. When I first called MS they told me I was a member as soon as I signed on the dotted line. LOL! In any case, I definitely want to go next Dec...maybe we'll see you there! By the way, how cute is your little guy??! ADORABLE!

I was just wondering if any one knew why BLT doesn't have any pins available? I know opening day there was a pin and that was it! I keep checking the Disney pin site (http://eventservices.disney.go.com/pintrading/index) for upcoming pins and still no BLT pins! I thought Christmas there would be one, but not yet.

Anyone know how to get a pin? We want to show out BLT pride!!

Awww, thanks so much! Yes, I was also under the impression that the paperwork had to be completley done to book. I called the DVC one night and the CM refused to book me eventhough I had a member number. The next day I was reading a random thread in the DVC section and the poster stated that she was in the process of closing, but she had already booked a room for Dec. I immediatly called back and the CM that I spoke to confirmed to me that you CAN book during the closing process. However, she checked for room availability and there were no rooms for our fist night of stay. I explained to her that I had called the previuos night and had been told that I could not make a resevation yetand that all 6 of nights were available last night. The CM felt so terribly about me receiving incorrect information so she put me on a priority waitlist for the first night. The CM was so nice and I was shocked to find out 2 days later, I had my room!!! Maybe you can call back and se what they could do for you. Sometimes it's ahrd getting all of the information. Good luck and congrats on you purchase! Welcome Home! April

Yeaaaa congrats!! Yes, BLT MUST be an amazing place for them to be able convince my DH as well! I did'nt even take the tour and I was pressuring him into it! He really did'nt take much convincing though. We're both really impressed with all of he DVC properites we've seen in the travel planner. Can't wait to try some more! Congrats! April

Me too.... would love a BLT pin. I have seen the limited edition (300?) one on Ebay but it is too much (to me) to spend on a pin.

DH and I own at OKW, and we just added 50 points at BLT. We will receive the 2009 points which can be banked into the 2010 use year, so we'll have 100 points in 2010. Should be able to stay 3 nights, at least. I just loved it, knew before we even took the tour that we would be adding on. However, DH didn't seem as excited, he really loves the large rooms at OKW. So, we'll probably do some split stays between the two. Anyway, I'm very excited and looking forward to staying there next year.

We own at BCV and BLT. As many have said... we've got the best of both worlds! We've already booked a MK view for 2010!

 

[DVCGeek]

We are making our first trip home to BLT in May. We are going for 1 week starting Memorial Day Weekend and we have booked a 2BR magic Kingdom view. I can't wait!

Can anyone recommend a room number that has an awesome view?
