Must be really packed

[pirateparrot]

I just called for availability for a value or moderate for May 20 - 22 and there was absolutely nothing available. I find that amazing considering how many rooms there are on-site. I also checked online and the only thing I could find was a suite at Coronado Springs for big bucks. Is it common to be this booked in May?

I'm thinking the magical express and cinderellabration stuff had much to do with the crowds.

May 20-22 is the First of Four Star Wars Weekends at the Disney*MGM Studios Theme Park and with the new movie coming out will be even more popular this year.

May the Force Be With You...

Our schools get out the Tuesday before. Dh has to work, so we're leaving for WDW on Friday, May 20. I know of lots of families around here that will be doing the same thing. Sorry, this is probably NOT what you wanted to here. Personally, I was hoping the parks would be relatively quiet if we went right away. Oh, well. We'll have fun anyway.

I just tried for the last 2 weeks of June...absolutley nothing

I know that POR was booked solid the last week in April........

 

[vascubaguy]

Oh my... I'm worried now. We are booked for May 28 - June 5... I knew it would be busy that weekend because of the memorial day weekend, but I had hoped it would die down a little after that.

Oh well, gonna enjoy it anyway!

I had a hard time getting rooms for May 18th-22nd.

My TA couldn't get POR for our trip the second week of June, so we switched to the middle of August. Hope to have lots of people going back to school. The UO Guide rated our days at a 7 in August.

The weekend of May 20th is also the Florida Half ironman triathlon at FW

I also realized that the weekend of 14th and 15th is the Danskin Women's triathlon.

I just got POR for June 17 and 18 at an AP rate of $109.00 this morning, so there is some hope for June!

3 weeks ago all mods/values were sold out for Memorial Day weekend.

2 weeks ago I got POR at an AP rate all days.

1 week ago I got POP at an AP rate all days.

Inventory changes constantly, in particular as the cancellation window/deposit due window comes into range.

Keep trying!

It appears that it is May 21-22 (Saturday to Sunday) that is making the weekend hard to book. Other then that night there is availability almost anywhere the week before and after (until memorial day weekend starts).

Just back from the CT Tower and it was "convention city" there!

Just tried for June 11-14 at ANY Value resort - nothing available.

Ended up at PO-R with AP rate.
