Hi,
I'm on a waiting list for any of the resorts, studio or 1bd, for the weekend of Oct 11. Does anyone have any experience with waitlisting in October? Do you think I have a chance? I just wasn't expecting this. The waiting is killing me!
Thanks,
Buttercup:D
 
Last year, we were brand new members in the 2nd week of Oct, and waitlisted to get a studio at ANY of the Disney DVC's for three nights about 8 days later. We managed to get a room for each night at a different resort. We called every day, several times/day actually, and managd to get 3 conscutive nights at the same place (OKW) about 1 or 2 days before we left. We were thrilled! Had a great time, and have been home for several more little 3 nighters since. We've found DVC to be very flexible for us, I guess b/c we're flexible about which location we stay at, or we'll waitlist. We actually got reservations about 6 mos out for early Dec at BCV, and rec'd our waitlist request for BWV standard view for Dec also.
I'd guess your chances are good, especially if you are persistent, even after the "waitlist ends" (which happens 7 days prior to first day of check-in).
