Spring Break Reservations?

[Merilyn]

I am going to book a 2 bedroom at OKW the week of March 14-21, 2009 as soon as the 11 month window opens. Should I call everyday to book a day or can I wait until the weeks end. Also, can someone tell me what the 11 month window would be? Is it calender months or days? Would 11 months be April 14 2008 for the first day I can call and April 21 2008 for the last? I have never booked spring break time and never had to worry so much about windows and getting reservations. We have never had an issue about getting our reservations so this is new to me. Just thought I would ask what my best options are. Thanks

We booked a dedicated 2-BR at SSR for this March towards the end of October. When I called, the lady at MS said she was glad I wanted SSR, because it was the only resort that still had availability. Even then, I had to reserve a lockoff and waitlist a dedicated 2-BR. The dedicated 2-BR ressie came through about mid-November.

If you have a strong resort preference, I would recommend you call day by day to ensure you have a better shot at getting the reservation you want.

Good luck!

April 15 would be the first day you could call, it is 11 months from check-out, not check-in, or assuming your last night is March 20, then April 21 would be your last call date.

At 11 months, there is no need to book day by day for an OKW 2 bedroom. They have a ton of 2 bedrooms, over 200 dedicated and 200 lockoffs.
