Wait list question

[sueg]

Our home resort is OKW. We know we need to have luck on wait list to stay at Boardwalk for F & W in October. I never feel confident setting up those requests. My questions are:
1. Is it a different request for each view at Boardwalk? If so, what view is my bet bet?
2. We are two couples. Would I do better with 2 one BD requests or 1 two BD request?
3. Am I correct that we stand a better chance at Boardwalk than Beach Club?

Any help is appreciated.

Pool/garden view at BWV is the largest category at the resorts you are looking at. A waitlist for the 2BR is the only way you'll guarantee that you have both couples move to the resort. If you waitlist for two 1BR's then you'd have to consider the possibility that you might get one but both. BWV is a little difficult because it's all lock-offs so you need to have both the 1BR and studio part open up at the same time and match to you. BCV 2BR categories are also small and a bit difficult because there are different setups. However you do get 2 waitlists so I'd set up for both. First - a 2BR BWV pool/garden view and second - either a 2BR at BCV or a 2BR standard view at BWV.

Thanks for the advice. You make a good point about the two 1BD request. Probably will go with the two different views at Boardwalk. I never have luck with waitlist at BCV.

BCV is undergoing renovations so construction and rooms being removed from inventory should be considered.
