BLT-Any Studio-Not Available 12/1/2012-Update Waitlist Came Thru

[shoes99]

We just got an invitation to our Disney Fan Club (NFFC) Christmas Party and it is going to be held at the Contemporary on 12/1/2012.
My niece owns at BLT so I asked her to find me any studio for 11/29 to 12/3.
Slim pickings at the 8th month mark, and nothing for 12/1/2012.
Here is what was available for 11/28 to 12/3, 4 nights.
Studio: Standard View: 0 of 4 nights
Studio: Lake View 3 of 4 nights (not 12/1)
Studio: MK View 1 of 4 nights available
We booked LV for 3 nights, and waitlisted for 12/1/2012.
I know the first week is tough to get but I can hope waitlist comes thru.
MS wanted to book a cash reservation for 12/1 for $365.75+tax, I said no.

Update: Waitlist came thru today 4/28/2012 for 12/1/2012.

I am not surprised about that. A lakeview waitlist may come through at the 7 month window if owners are wanting to move but I find at that time of year 8 months out would not be soon enough for a long trip there (we normally only go for 2 nights at a time so anything longer than that is what I consider a long trip for booking purposes).

My waitlist came thru today for a lakeview studio at BLT for 12/1. I am happy, I thought I would have to wait for the 7 month window to pass, but it must have cleared today. We now have 4 consecutive nights starting 11/29/2012.
