Well, my waitlist hasn’t come through, but the day before our trip came available, so I grabbed it. I canceled my original waitlist and put in a new one for the 4 days I originally wanted. We currently have 4 days in a standard deluxe studio at RR and 5 days in a Savanna view studio at Kidani. My hope is to cut the first or last day at Kidani depending on if the new waitlist comes through.
One question. If I have 3 of the 4 days in a reservation, is the system smart enough to fill the waitlist if the 4th day becomes available? Or will someone with a 1 day waitlist get it?
I am new to DVC, jut got contract a few weeks ago... I am waitlisted for Oct 31-Nov 5th 2021 at OKW for a 1 bedroom. I had called originally to see since this would be my first trip being a new DVC owner if they could fit me in, but they couldn't so I am waitlisted. I'm assuming it will be a stretch in getting this approved since I am waitlisted for the full five days?
Waitlists are an exact match. They do not hold days, so if you need 4 and only 1 comes open, it goes to someone who is waitlisted for just that day.
If no one is, it goes back into inventory. That is why shorter waitlists have a better chance than longer ones.
Yes but what if I hold the other 3 days in the reservation I want the waitlist to replace? Is the system smart enough to include the 3 days I already have?
If you already have 3 of the days you need and are only needing 1 more then your waitlist should only be for 1 day not 4.Yes but what if I hold the other 3 days in the reservation I want the waitlist to replace? Is the system smart enough to include the 3 days I already have?
I'm trying to get a night at any studio for the 2nd-3rd and have also been stalking the booking tool hoping something popped up. What dime of day did you snag it? I saw some SSR 2BRs this morning but no studios.Stalking paid off!!! And the waitlist was failing me again lol. I was able to pick up the bay lake tower studio I needed for the night of sept 30-oct1! Still can’t believe the day was actually there! No we can wake up the morning of the 50th and walk over instead of relying on the buses from bcvso excited! Waitlists are cleared/canceled.....for now.
Been most successful early in the mornings, not sure if it’s people canceling late at night or inventory being dropped back in but first thing in the morning I seem to see more openings. I actually saw a kidani sav view room pop up for the day you were looking for, just seeing your message now and it’s gone now, so I’ll hope you scooped it upI'm trying to get a night at any studio for the 2nd-3rd and have also been stalking the booking tool hoping something popped up.
