...will somebody tell me what it was though? Because uhhhh I'm on the outside of my own inside joke...

I currently have 5 rooms reserved at Yacht Club for April 2020, for an extended family trip. Par for the course, some of those family members are now waffling on whether or not they are going to come.
I received a PIN code this week in the mail for 30% off deluxe. With the code, we could switch our res to Boardwalk Inn (which we would prefer). Being from New England some family members weren't psyched about staying in a New England themed resort. BUT I could only get 3 rooms with the PIN code and Boardwalk is not showing any availability with the public offer.

There's a very good chance I'll only need 3 rooms in the end. But I want to give my siblings time to make their decision. I'd like them to go and I feel like if they have to make the decision today they'll say forget it.

SO.... my question is: can I just book the three rooms at Boardwalk while still holding the rooms at Yacht club on my account? Has to be on my account because of the PIN code. Then once everyone has decided cancel whichever one I'm not going to use?

I will also mention that I eat Bumblebee... solid white albacore in water

1) Does this person think Amex will hunt them down and put them in CC jail for not sending the card back?
2) What would you do "for fun" with an inactive Amex Plat card...??

Ugh... the entitlement.

Every once in a while we get someone at the resort I work for demanding an upgrade at the front desk because they flashed their Amex Plat.

I don’t see any issues with that! I currently have 3 BC reservations with the same dates and guests because of the offer releases (rack rate, general public, and AP). As long as you cancel and clean it up before you arrive I don’t think you will run into any issues.

Yes, so good! Departure day tradition for me when staying there. They give you warm biscuits with citrus infused butter for the table. I always order the french toast and the enhancements are a newer addition to the menu and I love them!!! There are a few options including oranges, cranberries, and nuts or blueberries, granola, and lemon curd combos. I choose the cookie one

The lemon curd is to die for! My fave breakfast in all WDW.

I have a working heat pump!!! For the first time in forever... well, since June at least. It hasn't been able to cool our house below 78 degrees on hot days. It was 83 upstairs when we had our last 97 degree day last week. This new heat pump is so quiet!! Of course, it's a beautiful day here today with no need to have any AC on, and will be for the next couple weeks, honestly.

And they're all on the same MDE account?

Hmm I may have to try a different enhancement next time!

My wedding hotel reservation went down again! $304 now.

 

[PolyRob]

Yup! Booked the two discounted ones online on my own because I couldn't get it to modify and calling was useless (I tried and spoke with 4 different CMs). My MDE will probably give out again in the future like it did in 2017, but I still have a change reservation button on my resort stays and can get in my rooms with MBs so I think I may be doing ok.

 

[elgerber]

Those of you that have mailed in ID etc to Barclays for a Biz card, what happened once they received it? Did you get an email, phone call, card just showed up??

Wait... doesn’t the Amex Platinum get the cardholder like automagic elite status at hotels?!

I 100% remember this episode! And when she thought buffalo wings were made of buffalo.

Smart business person right there. Makes us think she she is silly, but builds a clothing empire and has more money than Britney without having to perform anymore. She got the BIG tuna

Her shoes are great, or at least they were haven't looked in awhile. But I have a super cute pair of flats I still wear in the summer.

I will also mention that I eat Bumblebee... solid white albacore in water

Starkist puches in water cause it's one serving and easiest. Accidentally got some in oil several months back and it's gross.

Don't tell DH that.

I am LOVING all these CC approvals!!! It seems it comes in waves

Tried to add myself to this list but I (DH) went pending on the SW Perfromance Biz. Status line says 2 weeks.

Good luck! 2 weeks is better than 7-10 days!!!

Good to know.
To throw a wrench in it, my first booking at Yacht club is through a TA, since I was hoping for a good discount.
I don’t want to leave the TA high and dry if we end up going with Boardwalk, so would a TA have an issue with booking me two reservations for the same dates, same people?

Thanks. Instant approvals are just so much better though, lol.
