Waitlist for BVC? What are my chances?

[NickBCV]

We have a 1 BDRM booked for early November for a week at VGF and are on a waitlist for BVC to replace that booking. We won't be terribly disappointed if it does not come through because we still have the VGF booked, but we were thinking BCV is closer to Food and Wine and would mix things up for us a bit since we stayed at VGF this past April.

Someone told me getting the waitlist fulfilled in November for a week at BCV will be almost impossible, but I wanted to see what you all thought. Thanks.

I suspect poor. That is Jersey Week and leads to the Wine and Dine.

I figured as much....there are worse things than staying at the Grand Floridian I suppose

Although I have no idea of your chances, I will give you one tip-don't get discouraged as time gets closer. As a CM explained to me once (when our WL got fulfilled at 31 days) lots of times people know they're going to cancel, but just don't get around to officially doing it...that is, until the dreaded 30 day holding situation looms. So there's a big flurry of activity at 31, 32, days. Not so much at 4-5 months.

Thanks that does give me some hope. Kids love the monorail so VGF would be great too...just think being closer to Food and Wine and the new Toy Story Land at HS would be an extra bonus for our November trip.
