New(ish) request options at Online Check-In

[Brandis]

Just could do the online check-in for our stay at SSR.

I already had mailed MS with 2 location requests, Grand Stand OR Congress Park. When I logged into the online check-in form this morning, those 2 requests were noted.

I then went into the requests section itself where it says to pick up to 2 requests and noticed that the 2 options already entered by MS were greyed out, so I couldn't change those, but still could add others. So I tried "4th floor" and "Near pool". After that, everything else was greyed out as well. When I removed one of the 2 requests that I just had made, everything became available again.

When I confirmed my selections the confirmation page now showed 4 requests.

I wonder if that's a bug or if it's supposed to work this way...

did not think you could do request online at all.

so that is news to me.

The ability to make requests during online check in was recently added. I was told that it is a work in progress and eventually we will be able to add requests when we book online.

The requests are listed and you are limited to selecting only 2.

The requests are listed and you are limited to selecting only 2.

But apparently requests entered by Member Services somehow override the 2 requests limit, so you still can add 2 more requests during online check-in, giving you a total of 4. If they then take all 4 requests into account when dispatching the rooms remains to be seen, but I still found it an interesting bug (or is it a feature?

UPDATE: When I logged into the Online Check-In form again this morning, I noticed that it would let me make 2 more selections, in additon to the previous 4 which now are all greyed out and cannot be deselected. So I think it's definitly a a bug.

Does anyone else have the online request items for the other DVC resorts? I saw OKW this morning on another thread. It would be nice to have them located all on one thread.

Here's the link to the other thread for the OKW online requests.
