Are you CL, too? We'll be right down the hall!!!
... she said, in a "I swear I'm not a stalker" kind of way.
I'm still here, patiently waiting, still on for 2020!
In exciting news, I just figured out I can book at 499 days out (room only) this December! That's something, right?We normally never book that early, but with Star Wars Land opening in 2019 and Yacht Club being so close, I just want to make sure we've got something on the books. Can adjust package stuff later if we want when those prices come out.
It's so hard, normally we vacation other places, but this year in an effort to save for something else, we aren't going on vacation.
Pretty sure I didn't vote for that...
We LOVE YC CL. LOVE. And I decided to take the plunge and do the extra fastpasses for three days. The notion of Navi AND FOP AND Everest AND ROL after a morning at HS is just too much to resist. Throw in FINALLY getting to ride Frozen because it won't mean sacrificing Soarin' or Test Track, and it's done.hahahahha Yes we are, first time for club level. We can't wait!!!!! Also going to try the extra fastpasses
I keep telling myself I'm not leaving there until I book a return trip so I won't be as sad
I'd love to hear more about Club Level! Booking with the family & friends rate we were offered Club Level, but I turned it down. No regrets, but I'm interested in knowing that we should check it out next time! We are going for the Food & Wine Festival so I figured (for this trip at least) that we wouldn't really use the Club Level perks to their full advantage.We LOVE YC CL. LOVE.

Booking the return trip helps a LOT. Bounceback rates are a beautiful thing.
I have had good luck faxing requests via Touring Plans numbers. I find it helps when you have special situations like yours to request. We have had our birthday requests honored at the Poly twice now. Try a month before your arrival as that is when rooms are assigned.Hey everyone!
What is your experience with Room Requests being honored? We are staying for our wedding in 19 days. Booked a garden/woods view room, and noted at the time of reservation we *really* would like a room overlooking the gazebo (that’s where our ceremony will be held). I also posted on here a while back for a direct line to reservations, which I have saved and I’m planning to call the week of. Have you usually had a positive experience with getting a room/view you really want at YC? I’m so nervous our request won’t be honored, and we hoped to have some family members watch our ceremony from the room (will make for great pictures
This is my philosophy too!! I never book CL during F&W! I am trying YC CL for the first time in about 7 years in May. I love the refurbished YC rooms and the location (I was stranded there during Irma!) so even if their CL isn't top-notch, it will be enjoyable I'm sure!
that was a super helpful tip!

Thanks so much for posting these pictures!
That sounds like a great solution! I am going to add this as a suggestion/option in the FAQ section about mobility issues.
Are you purchasing one and bringing it or are you renting one? I know that really decent ones are around $100 to buy. We got one for my dad in October. We purchased a drink holder (around $6) for it and I guess all of his pals in his retirement community are jealous.
I think I will bring my own I found one online that folds up like a stroller
I'll add you to the Be Our Guest list we keep on Page 1, Post 15.
I believe others have answered your questions, but if you need any additional info, let us know.

Rooms arenot assigned a month out. They are assigned 3-5 days in advance.Thank you so much!! Aww- so neat you got to see a wedding there! We hope there’s lots of onlookers lol it doesn’t bother us at all. Thanks for the suggestion... I’m going to fax them tomorrow (2 weeks out) and then call the direct number next week (1 week out) *just* to be sure
A fax 2 weeks out is even more likely than normal to be ignored. Most resorts no longer process faxes. The room assigner doesn’t even have access to your reservation yet. Your best bet is to call and have it noted on your reservation. The Assigners see that. And folks have stated that they had luck with Touring Plans. We did not.
ohMom is at YC CL right now and just posted pics from last night's apps. Why do I read these boards when I'm hungry????
We have stayed in the dreaded dormer balcony rooms at the WL and the dormer balcony rooms at the BC and BCV are not as deep as those are. You can sit on the BC and BCV dormer balcony and see out of them. The balconies are a little smaller than the regular balconies, though. If you go to the first page of this thread can scroll down to the post about the villas building, you'll see a few pictures of the exterior of the building. Not all rooms on the fifth floor have dormer balconies. Some of them have regular ones.
