For those going Tgiving 2012 how did making ressies go?

[discorsner]

We are about to close any day. I just can't wait to get my points in the system because I really want to make a Thanksgiving 2012 ressie. Hoping we close in next day or so and points get in quickly.

We are looking for a 2 bedroom. Prefer to try to book our home resort of BWV and get a preferred view if available. Hoping that there is something left for me without waiting to the 7 month window to get something else. Really want to stay at BW anyway.

Are things filling up for Thanksgiving?

We own at BLT and BCV. I really wanted a 2 bedroom 2 queen at BCV. I called about two weeks ago and Thanksgiving night was not available. I could have gotten other types of two bedrooms. This was only a few days after the 11 month window opening. I than tried for BLT. Standard view or Theme Park View was not available but Lake View was. So we are are doing a split stay with the first 3 nights at BCV and BLT the last 3. I think you will be able to get something but maybe not your first choice. Good Luck!

Got two standard view studios at the Boardwalk – one for Tuesday to Tuesday, one Wednesday to Tuesday. I tried to get another standard view studio Sunday & Monday nights after T-day last week for my mom (only wanted standard view studio) and there weren’t any available…

We have 2 studios and a 2 bdr at AKV-Jambo. Checking in Friday before and we check-out on Wednesday before Thanksgiving and transfer to Hard Rock.
Good Luck!!

Here's what I would do: As soon as your points are loaded (takes a few days after closing...or at least ours did), call and try and book what you are looking for...if it's not available, go ahead and set up a waitlist. I wouldn't wait until 7 months before the reservation begins before trying to book elsewhere. If the waitlist doesn't come through, then at 7 months try booking at non-home resorts.
