Nightmare situation please help

[Princess Laura-Beth]

please can anyone help

We were supposed to travel to Disney tomorrow from the uk but unfortunately my fiancee has food poisoning so we are not able to fly. We have decided the best thing to do is wait untill she has recovered and travel out then which we think will be in about 5 days time although we became members of DVC last September and our using our developer points which run out before we would be planning on leaving. Do you think Disney we let us carry our points through for a few days.

please let me know what you think.

I have heard that DVC has been known to give a "once in a lifetime" chance for "emergency situations." to reschedule your vacation without losing your points.

I have never used this personally, but I have heard it happening.

I think your real problem will be trying to find a room available on such short notice.

On second thought....
If you are just pushing back your vacation by 5 days, wouldn't that fall into the "holding status" where you need to use you points withing 60 days?

So you might be okay if you can get a reservation on such short notice.

Good luck. Let us know how you make out.

Sorry to hear about your fiancee and I hope she will feel better soon. It never hurts to ask. I would call MS asap and explain the situation to them. You won't know until you ask. Best of luck and keep us posted.

Is your arrival tomorrow? If you have not called member services, I would call the resort directly to cancel before midnight eastern time. Otherwise, your points could be completely forfeited.

In this case I would call your Guide. They have access and pull that may be beneficial. If that doesn't work, call MS and ask for a Team Line Adviser who is the group that the MS Adviser will be talking to anyway.

I hope everything works out.
