I generally look for June-Oct, but I think ideally Sept would be best, but I'm not too concerned with it, would be nice to match, and definitely no need to match VGC.
What made you give up BWV?Looking like this is the plan. A little more than I planned (i've given in to the CCV vs BLT = Both), but I’m sure I’ll make it work.
Probably sell the AKV at some point unless Savanna view becomes hard to get in offseason. Either CCV or BLT could end up being 50 depending on the deal to be had.

No, its just "want" or plan to get. I currently only have VGC & AKV at the moment. It was just that after all the SAP+ talk, then the CCV vs BLT conversations, I decided this was the right answer. (like I said, either of them could end up being 50 & the AKV could be sold)
I was getting crazy trying to find all these different contracts AKV & BWV that weren't really needed or necessarily the right thing to do, it was just feels, & it helps to talk it out.
I think it's perfectly fine to do that as long as it is not a regular thing otherwise you paid more for VGC unnecessarily lol. But I get it, sometimes you just want convenience and not have to deal with renting out your points and etc.
Every scenario i looked into was available at 7months at BWV (& AKV Savanna view as well), so I really don't NEED either of them.
Yea, I'm good with VGC... if anything i could be intrigued by VDH resale if small ones started popping up (probably a few years before small ones are regularly listed)
Our summer trips are the ones we're most likely to switch - and I've found the same to be true. So of course I like a challenge and wait list BWV standard (hey, it's the shortest walk to HS and the bus stop if you make your room request just right) or BW view.
Not going to lie - if this was in my UY, I would start bidding...!
Come join us over on crescent lake every once in a while!
Yea exactly, Sept is my ideal UY.
Oh I will for sure, just not sure if it’ll be 11 month points or 7 month points.
Only one of those is a sure thingYea exactly, Sept is my ideal UY.

That was my understanding as well. Maybe @Chili327 travels away from school holidays, EPCOT festivals, and low point seasons?
We’ve been able to get a P/G view studio at 7 months in Sept for F&W as well as January for FoTA both in the past year.
Ironically, within 15 minutes of my post agreeing with @ClaraOswald that it's very difficult to get in at BWV, I cleared off a waitlist for 4 consective nights in August in STANDARD VIEW during our summer break... admittedly, it's a MISERABLE time to be running around the theme parks, but with our Sorcerer's passes, we will be lounging at the pool mid-day and visiting the parks after dinner.
Generally yes, but it’s very doable. It’s not like Beach Club and Grand Cal where you’re locked out pretty much if you don’t own there. If you’re flexible with the dates you book, potential split stays and if you’re booking during less popular DVC times which is basically not September through December you’ll probably be fine. Pool/garden view is the easiest to get and if you’re booking right at 7 months will likely be there. Boardwalk view studios are a little bit harder to get and standard view studios are probably the hardest to get without owning there. If you’re okay with 1BRs as well it obviously is even easier because pretty much the entire resort is 2BR lockoffs.
Ah to have the freedom of not having to travel during very specific school breaks…. I remember the pre-k days….
