Updated (no thanks to the waitlist) WAS: I'm living on the edge

Well, I've risked it all here LOL... Last week when Southwest released excellent rates from the Northeast to Orlando, I booked a 3 night stay over Labor Day Weekend...

I called MS & booked the three nights at OKW, it was the only resort available... But we just stayed there in December (and loved it) Anyways, I went on the wait lists for each of the other 3 on site resorts...

On a wim I called MS today to find out if any of the other three resorts had at least two nights available, SO... we're staying the first night at OKW & the last two nights at VWL....

My husband will KILL ME if we have to switch resorts, you guys had better hope for my surival What do ya think? Was it crazy or what to risk it?

Updated at the bottom!

I've had wait list 3 different times at different times of the year they have all come through......my fingers are crossed....

No I really think he will love VWL - alot of guys do! and you might be lucky and get all the nights there!

Is that first night you need at VWL a Friday or a Saturday? If so, I'd be willing to bet big that you will get it via the waitlist. Good luck!

Well, I called DVC this morning, shortly after 9am to check on that first day, August 31st... I mean I know I'm on the waitlist & all, but I also know that availability always changes & for whatever reason those on the waitlist don't always get called!!

Well, GUESS WHAT!! They had that first night available at WLV's!! I'm just glad I called... she couldn't tell me why I wasn't notified or switched automatically, but I wasn't... So, that's how I got the first night!!!

I still have us on the waitlist for BCV's, but only if all 3 come available at one time, otherwise we'll stay at VWL & be quite happy...

Thanks for all the pixie dust!!
