Chances for BLT 7 months out?

[BuzzLiteyear]

I'll send some pixie dust your way and will let everyone know how I made out.

I booked a studio standard view at BLT last summer at my 7 month mark for mid August! Good Luck!

We were able to get a 1-bedroom lake view at BLT in June a week before our arrival.

I have booked stays several times since BLT opened at the 7 month mark and BLT was always an option that was available. I didn't take it prefering to stay someplace else due to the high points needed for BLT.

As an fyi- I just booked today for a late may early June stay. We are staying 9 nights. We could only get the first four nights at BLT.

We did get a 1br lake view for 5/30-6/3. No STD view available. We will be staying rest of time at VWL.

No use in waitlisting for STD view as we are borrowing points from next year and any saved points would stay in this use year.

Also, guest services indicated we got the last 1bd at blt for that weekend.

I was able to switch from BWV where we own to three nights in a studio at OKW and then the other four nights at BLT two bedroom LV. Really wanted a Standard view (saves 20 points) but my DH has a conference at the Contemporary so it was more important to get the place. I've been waitlisted for a standard so we will see what happens...stay tuned!!

When I called at exactly the 7 month mark for April 28-may 1 for a studio all 3 views were available at BLT

This is why my wife was insistent on BLT for our purchase. She would kill me if we didn't get in when she wants to stay there if we had purchased elsewhere.

We got a studio at BLT- MK view 2 months out (just booked yesterday for our March trip), so it's definitely possible. Good luck

Booked a 1-bedroom LV at BLT today at the 7 month mark. There were no SV available but my DGD loves BLT so she got her wish. This trip is just the two oldest grandchildren and the grandparents!

Great! Earlier this week, a few days after the 7 month mark,I got a BLT studio for 4 nights. All 3 views were available, so I lucked out point wise and booked standard.

Hope this is me.
We are currently booked at SSR in a 2 bedroom for a week.
My mother and are are going for 3 nights before my ds and dh meet us.
She loves TOtW (we stayed in BLT last year, 2 bedroom) and CG.
On Jan. 26, I'm going to call and see if I can get 3 nights at BLT, studio standard view, but I will take anything if available. The difference in a studio and 1 bedroom is about 42 points. I plan on renting remaining 2012 points and if I do, that would be an extra $420 for spending money.
The rest of the stay, I'm going to try for BWVs-BW View 2 bedroom. Not sure of my chances for that.
If I can't get, I'm going to try for BCVs, 2 bedroom.

Good luck to us all!

Just booked 3 studios, lake view. There were no standard views left although, there were theme park views. Now I get to try to book BCV on Friday for our split stay. Keeping my fingers crossed!!

 

[lionqueen]

I wait listed for one of the studios at BLT and it came in today! Less than 24 hours from when I went on the wait list!!
