So I was booking my airfare for my upcoming Thanksgiving trip and saw that I would save over $400 for my family of 5 by staying an extra day. A quick call to MS and we're in. 24 bonus hours at WDW. Woo hoo!
Isn't it amazing what a difference a day can make in airfares sometimes? So now you just "have to" have an extra WDW day. Ah, shucks! And you're so fortunate there was availability. A similar thing happened to me, but there was no availability for the resort. So unfortunately, as of now, I'm spending my first night at a different DVC resort. Come on, waitlist!
