Help...Online Booking vs. Calling Member Services

[MJS]

First, I apologize if this topic has already been discussed. I did a search, but could not find the answer to my question.

We are looking to book a long stay at our home resort for Spring Break 2013. When the 11 month window opens, should we call member services or book it online? We would love to stay more than 7 nights, so can we add on each day to an online booking, or do we need to talk with MS? It is the BCV around Easter, so my guess is that there will be high demand.

Thanks for your help!

Online booking will allow you to be in the system and make the reservation at 8:00 am, while MS open at 9:00am, so one hour advantage.
But online you can book only 7 nights. To add nights you have to call MS day by day (or every few days): online you can only book or cancel the entire reservation, you cannot make any modification.

You can only book seven nights with MS, too. But like zavandor said, book the next night you need by calling MS the next day and so on until you get all your nights.

Thanks for helping me! So, you cannot add to a reservation online, that needs to be done by talking to Member Services.

Correct. You cannot modify (ie, add nights) online. But you don't need to call every night. You can wait up to 6 days to make your second call so you can add more days than just one.
