Can you check DVC availlability on-line?

I'm looking at 1/8-12 (yeah, I know, real last minute). I just found out today that we've got that week off from work, the AP's "burning a hole in my pocket" (as my grandmother said), we've got frequent flier miles and if not for the right dates, Southwest is calling my name-they've got a very good offer. So does anyone know if I can check resort availability at the DVC resorts for that time? If not, do you think I have any chance (not like 1 in a million) for anything , other than OKW, for those dates? I'll be going solo, staying in a studio, and I really want a couch in my room (hence, not OKW).

No checking on-line yet.

The one through CRO/WDTC are separate from MS .

MS is the only way and you jut never know until you call.

Good luck

I'd say you have a good shot at SSR for those dates. Like they say, you never know until you try! Good luck with your reservations!

Surprisingly, even SSR was only available for certain nights that week. However, I had a choice of at least two for Member's cash, which I decided on, since otherwise I'd have to borrow (more) points from next year. And I got my favorite-BCV. Can't wait!

I'm glad things worked out for you! I've been reading that January, which used to be a very slow month, is now getting to be a tough short-leadtime reservation for DVC. I guess planning those last minute trips is always going to be somewhat of a gamble.

Well, since the airfare and park admissions are already covered, I guess paying cash for the room still makes for a pretty reasonable cost for a quickly planned trip.

Enjoy the BCV!!
