Need booking advice!

[monorailmom]

Hi all..here's my question. We are booked at BLT 8/19 for 2 nights using our 100 BLT points. (we really don't want to borrow next years). I would like to actually have a total of 8 nights..I tried to call today to add on from 8/17 to 8/19, so I could then add on to the end of the vacation. ( I would eventually cancel the first two days.) Well, that didn't work because the 17th and 18th are already booked, as is every other night that week except for two in addition to the ones I already have. SO, since I have to start on the 19th anyway, if I can still get four nights, would you take them and then WL the rest somewhere else? Or would you cancel the nights you have, book the whole week somewhere else and WL the whole week? And what if I can only get the two nights I already have? What are the best options? Sorry if this is confusing... ( I do have plenty of points, just not all at BLT, we have others at SSR and AKV)

I guess if you are comfortable with a split stay then book your other nights, then WL for the rest... If you dont like split stays then book all your nights elsewhere... You dont mention the kind of room or view you have, that might determine some availabilty...

Also, all of BLT rooms have not been declared, so a WL there might have a good chance of coming thru for you...

One more thing, I am not sure what the dates for free dining have been in the past... if these dates would be covered... you might have some DVCers that would cancel there trip on points and book a cash room with free dining, so you might have that going for you as well...

HTH

We were hoping for a 2br SV at BLT. Problem is, if we can't get BLT, we'd love to try for BC...and I know I have to decide that soon, if not immediately!!
