I will be booking our annual Xmas trip at the 11 month mark in a few days. We typically book a 1 bedroom for our (young) family of 5. My parents are on the fence about joining us (80% no, 20% yes). I would like to keep the optionality open for them, but also don’t want to fork out unnecessary points for a two bedroom during high season if they eventually decide not to come. As this will be a busy season, I expect that our view category will be gone shortly after the 11month mark.
It occurred to me that perhaps if we booked a 2 bedroom lock-off instead of a dedicated 2 bedroom, perhaps we would be able to modify it down the road to a 1 bedroom as we would already have that “piece” set aside. For example, when I go online to modify (shorten) an existing booking in a category that is no longer available, my room always shows as available for the window as I already have it set aside. Curious what the options would be if I went in to “modify” a lock-off 2 bedroom for the existing window. Would it show the lock-off 2 bedroom, a 1 bedroom and a studio as being available? If you have any experience with this, I’d love to hear from you.
