So, I'm taking a "last minute" WDW trip in November, before Thanksgiving.
I booked the plane tickets and then headed over to the DVC webpage to book a room.
No availability, anywhere, for a studio or 1 bedroom.
Yikes...I've never had this happen before.
So, I wait listed for Saratoga and OKW. I like those resorts and they are two of the largest, so I thought they were the safest bet.
I set the wait list to expire 7 days prior to departure. But, how long should I *really* wait before trying to make other plans? Is it reasonable to hope that my wait list comes through in the middle of September?
Waiting longer than that makes me nervous...
I looked at the availability for other (non-DVC) resorts on property and the only ones with decent availability were All-Star resorts. I'm not opposed to staying there, but I'm surprised that there isn't more availability elsewhere.
Anyhow, when should I give up on the wait list and book elsewhere?
