Had an offer accepted and signed the initial contract. Hasn’t been sent to ROFR yet. Am I still allowed in here or is there a waiting period?

Only still as “Lover” but reach full “Owner” rank here soon.

Well, I'm officially an Animal Kingdom Lodge owner AGAIN I couldn't resist buying it for 20 dollars. Unfortunately the one with Simba on it couldn't fit in my SUV. If I had a pickup I would've got that instead

$20 is basically free for that. Wow what a steal for what amounts to usable memorabilia! Heck I'd pay someone the 20 plus 250 to ship it up my way in the northeast!

Could really go for this mirror too. You didn't see any of mirrors did ya? Cause I might have to take a flight down and rent a UHaul truck and load it up with AKV goods!

How easy/hard is it to get 6 nights in a resort view deluxe studio at Jambo at the 11 month mark? I did see a chart on DVC Field Guide but wasn’t sure how accurate that was.

Edit: dates would most likely be early-mid December, January-April, and October.

Mostly get it each and every time you book year round with some competition when it comes to the beginning of December frenzy time. Or if pick one of the most popular marathon dates.

AKV, especially Jambo, it’s all about the Value & Club options. That’s what make owning worth every bit of that contract’s booking power.

We’ve booked 2 br. resort views at Jambo for Dec. - including early Dec. - several times, which are all lock offs so availability is tied to the ever popular studio booking trends. We’ve not had any problems getting 7+ nights in 2 br. lock offs right at 11 months for Dec. or Jan., however, I don’t dawdle or sleep in, I set my alarm & book at exactly 11 months out.
