sites next to each other

[tltay2005]

Camping with my sister and her family. Requested in reservation that we get a site next to theirs. Anyone have any luck getting two sites together?

The way to get two sites as close to each other as you can is to "link" them.

Each site should have its own reservation number. The idea is to call the WDW reservation line and ask to have the 2nd reservation number added as a note to your reservation. Likewise, your friends/family on the second site should call and note your reservation number on theirs.

About 5 days before arrival, reservation data gets downloaded to the Fort for pre-assignment. If "A" wants to be next to "B" and visa versa, a Fort CM will try to make it happen to the extent they can. (Current vacancies willing).

No guarantee of course but give Disney enough info and they should try to get you close.

Thanks bama ed, that worked. Called yesterday and they said we would be right next to each other or straight across. We head that way tomorrow.

1) In many cases, we CAN get you together, but not always.
2) Still depends upon availability.
3) But, we try.

4) Of course, being next to in-laws can be a good thing, or a bad thing . . . . . . .

Amen to that...

Looking good so far. My sister checked in yesterday and I called her a few minutes ago and the site next to her and one across is still empty. Keeping my fingers crossed. And for me, its a good thing. My son (12) passed away this past August, so I relish the time I get to spend with my young nieces and nephews.

In the future if you plan to travel as a group, when you start the reservation ask for a grand gathering. Its best to set up all the known reservations at the same time, but they can call then in same day to pay on their own. But the GG number links the reservations together and they try to get you as close together as possible.

We "Linked" our reservations together in 2012 and were given sites side by side. Bama Ed is right.

I'm so very sorry to hear about your son. Praying that you and your family have an amazing Disney vacation!

I lost my son (29) in November, and I can tell you I know how horrible of an experience you have been going through. Hope you have a magical vacation with your family.

Just got home, and yes, linking the reservations worked, we had a choice of site right across or right next to each other.
