Dec 08 Waitlist thread

[dallasdisneymommy]

Got my BWV waitlist for December 4th and 5th! Yeah! Studio Garden/Pool view. I was also on the waitlist for VWL and BCV, but this one came through first, and I am happy! This frees up a value one bedroom at AKV for the same days, hopefully this will sprinkle some pixie dust on someone else's wait list!

It's a good day! Can't wait!

Well folks, we are approaching the 30 day mark! I think that we need lots of pixiedust!

Good question. I think I went on the waitlist very near the 7 month mark, so about 5 1/2 months ago.

We waitlisted for a one bedroom anywhere for dates of Nov 24-29 starting on October 18. I called day by day and kept booking one day here and there and finally after one week it came through at SSR. We added on to our trip which was orginally Nov 29- Dec 7. We have that ressie at BWV in a 1 br boardwalk view. I am hoping to get a few more nights at BWV in the same view starting with the 29 of November and backing up. So far no luck there. But at least the added on stay is in one room for 5 nights straight.
Congrats to those whose waitlist came through. Sending pixie dust to everyone waitlisting yet.

Donald-I wanted to give you a heads up there was a 1brmBWV room that I could have gotten on an AP discount yesterday. I did not get it.

Do you think it fair to say that the 2BR AKV Savannah wait list request for Dec. 21-26 isn't going to come through if it hasn't happened so far? I've had the request in since June. I've got a Christmas Day Boma ADR that I will need to cancel if the wait list doesn't come through. I would hate to cancel the ADR if my wait list comes about but I also hate to tie up that ADR that someone else could use. Right now we're at VWL (I also have a dinner ADR at WC) but really wanted AKV because DS33 has never stayed there before.

as of today.. I am done calling.... I will call 7 days before the 6th of December... I am gonna try to find a plan C...

I would wait to cancel your ADR. I think if the WL is going to come through it will at around 31 days prior because points will go into a holding account if it is cancelled after that. People are in no hurry to cancel until that point. I'm in the same boat as you looking for a 2br anywhere but SSR 12/18-25 to consolidate our party to the same resort. Good luck!

Thanks, I'll give it about 3 more weeks.

Got to look on the bright side.

Really? Hmmm. What did you book instead?

Nothing-I was looking for a stuido, but just told them anything with a AP rate for BW...they came back with BWV-1brm...but not AP rate applicable(forgot to mention that)...so I booked nothing. I have a YC AP rate, and a WL rack rate ressie that I can patch together with my DVC reservations...but as it stands now I am unpacking 4 times and I will loose 29 points.

 

[ANTSS2001]

I will loose 29 points.

OUCH!!!

Yesterday I had to cancel our reservation for a 2bdrm at VWL from 11/30 thru 12/4. I hope it made someone else very happy!

I got my BCV studio 12/1 yesterday (I think)...

I went to check online, and I have problem with my account where I can't see my pending vacations...... (I have email into DVC)....

BUt I did confirm that I got 12/1 BCV studio. - I have been on WL since 10 months, I believe.

GOldi

(SO I cancelled a BWV preferred studio for 12/1, hope that helps someone else).
