Waitlist for "Jersey Week"

[DumboFan]

Any chance my waitlist will come thru? We're taking my daughter & her 2 best friends for my daughter's Sweet 16 Nov 6-10. I've waitlisted a 2bed at BLT & a 2 bed at BC. I have my reservations at AKL, but she REALLY wants to stay within walking distance of one of the parks. We're new owners & I have no idea if we have a chance of getting one of the waitlists!

Thanks!

That week is very popular, it's also the last week of the Food & Wine Festival. I've had 11/10 waitlisted at BWV for about a month now. I think BLT is more likely than BCV. Good Luck!

I would try and waitlist at BWV (pool) instead of BC it is a much bigger resort,
so your chances will increase just for that reason.

Are any of the days available for the resorts you want? You have a much better chance of having a WL come through for just a night or two instead of all four nights.

We got BC on waitlist last year for that week, so it could happen, I will never forget because I got the call on April Fools Day and was like are u fooling me...lol.

Sending good luck vibes your way!!

Thanks everyone! BLT has our 1st night, but that's it. My daughter doesn't want to stay at BWV because she like the clown mouth at the slide!!
Of course, now that we realized the 5K & 1/2 marathon are going on that weekend, the girls are talking about doing the 5K. 2 of the girls are field hockey players - both will just be finished their season, but my DD will still be in full training mode for nationals at the end of the month. I think the idea of the all night party is more exciting than the actual 5K!

The 5K starts at 7 am - so you'll need to stay at one of the "race resorts" that runs buses that morning or take a cab (we're staying at AKV for Jersey Week - celebrating the DD's 10th birthday - and running our first WDW
5K ... !) Here's the link to the RunDisney web site for more info:

The party at Epcot on Saturday night costs around $75 ...

And you will need to take a trek to the ESPN sports complex to pick up race numbers, etc. on Friday (special buses will run from the "race resorts" - otherwise, a cab ...)

... see you at the Start line?
