How long before the other two moderates get beds in some of their units?Yup.

Can't a party of five just book a standard room and will automatically get the AB section?
So you are gonna pay more for a room of five even if there are only two adults in the room.You could when they first rolled out this new option, but I suspect it will become forced at some point. You can still book Pool View and River View with five people and be guaranteed AB though, as there is no matching 5th sleeper option for those two.

When is your trip? You might still be able to get the AB, but the odds are lower now than in the past I think.So all the AB rooms are now for families of 5. I booked standard with the intention of getting an AB room, as I like the rustic feel. I hope they honor my request. Anybody with a family of four booked standard recently and not had a problem getting an AB room?

Are you still guaranteed an AB room if u book preferred???

Right, but if they eventually make all parties of five book a 5th Sleeper option, they would pay more then? Or am I missing something here?No, it only costs more if you book the 5th Sleeper option. So for two of you you'd be fine booking a normal Standard or Garden View (which would most likely be in the mansion buildings, although not 100% guaranteed).

I didn't get any choices for room requests in the online check-in... is that normal? It did seem like online check-in was available earlier than i'd expect it to be (i'm slightly more than 60 days out)
Yes, but it’s common in hospitality for rooms to cost more that can accommodate five. Some hotels charge an additional person fee (I believe swan and dolphin) some charge more per night for rooms that can sleep additional people.Right, but if they eventually make all parties of five book a 5th Sleeper option, they would pay more then?

Just returned from POR where we had booked a garden view room for 3 people and got a room in AB 38, which was a great location. Not too far from the food court and very close to the 2nd bus stop.No, it only costs more if you book the 5th Sleeper option. So for two of you you'd be fine booking a normal Standard or Garden View (which would most likely be in the mansion buildings, although not 100% guaranteed).

Do all AB rooms have that murphy bed in the wall?
If so, what section of AB would I request if I would like a dresser with a regular sized tv?
Except for the handicap accessible rooms, yes.
Not quite sure what you're asking here. If you want a room with a regular dresser and no Murphy Bed, request a room in Magnolia Bend. The only rooms with a larger TV than the one pictured above, you'll have to request a room in the 30's section of Alligator Bayou. The only rooms with the larger TVs are the ones that have been refurbished and the 30's is the only area that has been completed.
