European vs. US room inventory

[rednaskela]

It seems that there are major differences between the hotel room inventory, depending on from which country you are booking.

My problem is that I booked a vacation package for December through the European/international booking system. I chose AKL because it was the only one available, hoping that there might be room cancellations in the future, so I can switch hotels but keep the booking as it is.

Now I see that in October many hotels are suddenly having rooms available, but only through the US page. Disneyworld.eu still has barely anything available.
Does anyone know if it's possible to change hotels, even if the rooms are not in the EU inventory, but only in the US inventory?
Or would I have to cancel my whole trip and rebook through the US page?

Thanks in advance!

As far as I know you can only book through the EU/UK website what you see online on their website. It has nothing to do with the US inventory. Which means you‘d have to cancel the EU booking and rebook via the US website if you want access to their inventory.

Btw I am also booked for a December stay AKL which is a gorgeous hotel and it’s supposed to have one of the best Xmas decorations of all hotels in WDW.
