We are scheduled for our home SSR on 12/7 - 12/13/08, and have put ourselves on the waiting list for the the Beach Club. Has anyone ever had luck getting changed this way? Thanks!
My parents were on the waiting list to get into their own home resort, SSR, for the exact same dates as you. They booked a room at POFQ about six weeks ago as a backup, but got a letter letting them know SSR was available. This all transpired about ten days ago. I know it's not BC, but I hope it does give you some hope that people do get rooms from the waiting list. Good luck!
I'd post this on the DVC board. They are very knowledgeable about that kind of stuff. The first weeks of Dec. are VERY popular with DVCer's due to the low points, so I would really be surprised if BC came through.
Over on the DVC board there is a Dec waitlist thread. I have not checked it recently but I know many people were waitlisted for early Dec. Good luck! BCV is awesome but many love SSR. You really cannot go wrong as long as you are in WDW.
SSR is our home too. We are going Oct 21-29 and we are on the wait list for BC. With the Food and Wine Festival going on, I'm not holding out a lot of hope that we will get it.
