Help! Accidentally canceled DH’s reservation!

[avalon451]

I’m usually obsessively careful, so I have no idea how I managed this. I was canceling park reservations for my JUNE trip because it turns out DH can’t come with me then. But somehow I managed to cancel the first park reservation day for our trip that starts Wednesday, the DAY AFTER TOMORROW. Now I’ve got just Thursday and Friday reserved on his 3 day park hopper.
I’m so mad at myself. I actually called DLR customer services, but you know how that goes. I was on hold for a half hour and they didn’t even give an estimated wait time or a callback option.

*SIGH* any brilliant ideas? The only thing I can think to do is keep checking, especially tomorrow night, for last minute cancellations.

Do you happen to have a June Disney hotel reservation?

Not ideal, but I looked and it appears that there are reservations for DCA on Wednesday. Maybe switch your reservations and then hop, and at the same time watch for DL reservations to possibly open? At least that way if they don't open, you can start your day someplace.

Her sig looks like a GCH in June. Maybe she can access the resort bucket but will that be too far away to capture it?

Okay. Whew. We are good. Thank you for your suggestions!

I was actually able to reach the help desk by going through the Keyholder phone line; only had to wait a couple of minutes. However, once there, the lady sadly told me that although she could see that I'd just canceled that first day of a three day pass, she was unable to reinstate it. She said that the best bet was to keep refreshing. However, she did tell me to try going through an incognito window on Google, which I did. Still no dice.

DLgal, I did see your earlier post about the hotel bucket (while I was out running errands), and I've seen info about that in the past, so when I tried earlier, it just popped up with the month of June and nothing available right now. However, when I got home I hopped on my laptop, opened an incognito window in the browser (just in case that really made a difference) and tried again by going through my hotel reservation for June. This time I saw the arrows leading back to earlier months, and voila! Wednesday is still open. So I was able to reinstate DH's reservations.

Thank you so much for coming to the rescue, I knew my DisBoard peeps would come through! I'm so relieved, it was just wrecking my anticipation!

Hugs to all you guys!

Oh, that would have worked! Thanks for the heads up! As I said just above, I was luckily able to figure it out and get the reservation back. But I had been looking a lot earlier, and saw neither park available all day-- wonder if you happened to see a cancellation? I'd have snagged it if so, because that's our travel day. We don't get into SNA till 12:30, so by the time we got there parkhopping would have started. Thanks, though!

I am so glad you were able to get it worked out!
