October 2008 Waitlist Thread

It's getting close did y'all WL within the 30 day window too?

Looks like I will have to cancel a value studio at AKV for Oct 13-16. Going to need more space than studio. I'll be cancelling at 31 days so hopefully a disboard person will get their waitlist.

Any updates?

Still have wait list at BW for studio 10/28-11/2 (we have a reservation for SSR). Don't think at this point we have much of a chance.

All my wait lists go until 7 days before. I've got cash reservations for the 2 night I still need and the cancellation policy on them is 5 days. MS even told me they'd allow me to cancel the cash reservations up until the last minute if something comes available within 7 days.

continued good luck to all

I have been waitlisted since the 7 month mark for BCV. I had gotten the first 3 nights in a one bedroom at BCV (Oct 19-22) and then I have the other two nights at BWV (Oct 22-24) in a one bedroom. I am hoping that we don't have to move and the BCV waitlist comes through for those two night (22 & 23rd). I am also waitlisted for a 2 bedroom for the entire 5 days at BCV.

We are also spending the first 3 night b/f that at HRH at Universal. So if the waitlist doesn't come through, we will be moving 3 times.

Just bumping back to the top to hopefully find some lucky updates!!

Anyone?

My WL came through! We now have a studio at OKW 10/11-10/18. I'm so thankful we don't have to move. Sending pixie dust to those of you still waiting.

Great!! Congratulations!!

When did you get your dates? Was it the entire 10/11-18 or a few that completed the week? Inquiring minds want to know...

We just became official today - so we were able to check on date availability for our dates - Oct 25th - 30th - but alas - nothing available straight through -

So we are waitlisted for a 1 bedroom at any resort from Oct 25th - 30th.

Not holding our breath - but you never know....we need some pixie dust !!

I had to call MS to check on my own wait list and asked about 1Br for your dates. At OWK they have the nights of Oct 25, 28 & 29 so doesn't that leave you only needing Oct 26 & 27? You could grab those dates then reduce your wait list at OKW to those two dates. You might want to inquire about the DVC cash discount for those dates while you wait. Just an idea... but as of less than 5 minutes ago those dates were available.

The only date that I still needed was 10/12. I had been waitlisted for other days that had come through in the last several months, but was still waiting on the 12th. The 12th came through yesterday.

That's great! It gives me a little hope I might be able to pick up one or both of the two dates i still need!!
