Good News: We got SSR dedicated 2BR for the week of Thanksgiving. Our first visit home for Thanksgiving!!!
Great News: My parents have decided to join us after inviting them to WDW for a full blown WDW vacation for years. (We did get them to AKL for 2 nights several years ago shortly after it opened.)
Bad News: My mom asked me if we were staying in the Epcot resort area as that is where she always wanted to stay since we took them to dinner at Cape May Cafe years ago.
I have been pondering this for about a week with DH, trying to figure out whether I should even try at 7 months out at BCV. I would have to book day by day but I know the hardest days to get will be the last two days of our trip - Wed. and Thurs. (Thanksgiving night). Because of our points situation, I will have to give up our SSR ressie to book BCV day by day. I'm sure my mother will be perefectly happy at SSR as we love it there but DH did bring up a good point that BCV may be a better location due to my parents' disabilities. My father will be using a scooter and my mom tires easliy since her stroke two years ago. BCV will have much easier access to EC and the Studios. We plan 2 days at EC, one at the Studios and one at MK.
Two questions: Is it even in the realm of possibilites to be able to get a 2 BR at BCV for Thanksgiving week, including waitlisting? If I inquire with MS a few days before the 7 month window, will they tell me current availabilty at BCV so I can gage whether or not to give up my SSR?
We love SSR and after OKW, BCV is our favorite. If we didn't have pesty college costs to contend with, I would be bugging DH to add on at BCV!!!
