OK, so we are traveling to WDW next month. DH, myself and our 3 young children. Staying in a 1BR at BWV. My son is young and loves to sleep in our bed, so we know we are fine there. My daughter actually usually winds up in our bed too, so we know we have more than enough room. Oldest daughter is a tiny little thing and will have pullout in LV to herself.
Dear old mom recently lost her job and is depressed about not being able to find another. She was telling me how much she would love to join us at Disney. We don't have enough points to upgrade to a 2-BR. Nor do we have the extra money to get a second room on a cash res.
We are the kind of family that enjoys each other's company and last year when we got a 2-BR to bring my Dad along, it was a total waste of space cause we didn't realize utilize it all. Everyone was always in the same room!
So I figured we will suck it up and have Granny sleep with older DD in LV. I thought that I would be able to add her to our ressie, b/c I thought DVC's policy was that although the stated max in a 1-BR is 5 people, that we could technically add another, and they just wouldn't provide bedding for her.
When I called member services, they told me that I could not add her to our reservation, that we were already over the limit for a 1-BR with 5 people
Please no flames.. I understand that some of you get personally invested in this occupancy issue, as I've seen other threads get pretty heated over this. I just want a simple answer as to whether member services does or does not allow me to add a 3rd adult to a BWV 1-BR. I already understand things will be tight and am willing to sacrifice comfort to bring my mom along.
Thanks guys!
