MLK-RI sending some extra pixie dust to you

I figure that SSR won't be so bad because if we decide to spend time enjoying the the Boardwalk after Park Closing, we can always just catch the Downtown Bus and walk back to SSR.

I am sending extra pixie dust, for one more day for MS to call to confirm some waitlists before the weekend.

 

[Good Ol Gal]

Why oh why won't they call

for all!!

My waitlist for BWV studio for Sept. 30th Oct. 3rd came through. We were going to be in SSR, but now have BWV preferred view. I'm still on a waitlist for a standard view, but it's great to know that my 2 rooms will be in the same resort. I had booked the other BWV studio awhile ago.

The fact that this is during the F&W and we were able to get the BWV is very heartening to me!!! We're less than 4 months out.

This waitlist came through without my calling them, I had told MS where to take the extra points from if the waitlist became available, and all went well.

Pixie Dust for all who are waiting!!

 

[wdwstar]

Congrats Bobbiwoz on your waitlist, enjoy your trip

 

[MLK-RI]

Bobbiwoz - that's great enjoy. I know they tell you not to call, but sometimes I wonder if it does help? In your case it all worked as it should. I am trying to behave.

 

[bobbiwoz]

MLK-RI, in fact, I had to call, but that was because on Wednesday, I made a ressie for Mother's Day weekend, (mom is thrilled, we've decided to take her to the Mother's Day brunch at Epcot next year) and when they gave me the number of '06 points that I had left, I jotted the number down, but since I was in Cape May, I couldn't see if it agreed with the number I thought I should have. This morning when I compared, I realized they probably did use the 5 extra points BWV would cost me, and so, I did call, and yes, my waitlist had come through.

3 DF's and I are waitlisted for Oct. 20 at BCV. We have Oct 21-24 confirmed in a 2 bdrm. I hope it comes through, we already have our airline tickets!!

Good luck and pixie dust to everyone!!

 

[wdwstar]

pixie to everyone, today is Monday, i hope everyone will be getting a call today


rtwhite i believe your waitlist will come thru, but if doesnt you may want to book something thru wdw and pay cash, you have up to 5 days to cancel and get your deposit back. you will know by then because you actually fall off the waitlist up to 7 days of arrival. have you check the rent / trade board maybe a member has a 2 bedroom for that date, you could trade your points for the ressies.

I guess I'll throw my hat into the waiting ring too. We are on the Boardwalk waiting list for Oct 5-11 but were able to get confirmed at SSR which was my wife's second choice. This is our first time as DVC members but I think it'll be the 4 time to DW as a couple.

 

[bobbiwoz]

tarpat1, we were on the waitlist for BWV (studio) from SSR for about 2 weeks, I hope the same happens for you!

Have a studio @ OKW Dec. 4-7, decided to add the night of Dec. 7 so I'm waitlisted for that.

Then my friends and their 4yo DD are coming so I also waitlisted on a 2-bdrm (day-by-day) and a studio for Dec 4-8 at OKW.

In need of LOTS of pixie dust so this trip will go off without a hitch - it's their first trip (and first real vacation in 2 years) to WDW as a family!!!

Also it's my first trip "home" to OKW!!!

Waitlisted for BCV studio for Dec 4 and Dec 6-- Already have 11/29 to 12/3 and 12/5.

Called MS today and found out we got 12/6!!!! Now we only need Sunday 12/4 at a BCV/studio to make the trip complete.

for a studio at BCV (have a one bedroom reserved, just in case), and either a studio or a one bedroom at the VWL. I really want to stay at the VWL for Christmas, but since I am guarenteed to go, I won't be too upset if I don't get into the VWL.

Question: this was the first time I did the waitlist thing. Because I wanted to make certain I would get to go December 9-12, I booked a ressie for the BCV, and was put on the waitlist for the studio at BCV and studio/one bedroom VWL. Do DVC members do this differently, such as book the 2 days available here, one day somewhere else that is not free, and hope that the one day that is not free comes in? Sounds risky, as well as a lot of hassle with moving resorts.

People reserve it either way, day by day or the whole ressie. Sometimes there are frantic posts from people who find they will be moving 2 times or more, but that's rare, if my memory is correct. Some people reserve a room on cash with MS just in case for the days they are waitlisted, but we've never done that.

Pixie dust for your waitlist!

Waiting for a studio @ BW or BC August 21 thru August 26. We have a reservation @ VWL, but got our fingers crossed our waitlist comes thru!

 

[wintergreen]

Waitlisted for a 1 BR at the BCV November 4-8. Have ressies for the BWV. Would love BWV but for the fact that I had to change our July VWL ressie to the BWV in order to add our new au pair to the group.

 

[CarolA]

Waiting for two days at BCV, I think it's Oct 26 and 27. No big deal if I don't get them I'll just head home earlier.

 

[bobbiwoz]

Hi again, Well, I got the BWV, but I'm still waitlisted for a SV studio for the Sept. 30th visit. Heaven knows, we can use the 7 points that I would be saving!!
