Waitlist Question

[javamom]

I found out recently that a wait-listed night came through. I figured it out when I checked my points online. Then a few days later, I got a letter in the mail.

Anyway, when I look online, it shows 2 reservation numbers. But the new confirm shows all 5 nights on the same number.

Do I need to call MS JIC, to make sure that they are linked so that they don't have me doing something stupid like changing rooms for 1-night??

I would call just to make sure, never hurts better then showing up and being surprised.

When you have a wait list come through, it is a new reservation and thus the new #. But, MS should have them linked and if the paper shows them under the one, you should be all set.

But, as PP mentioned, it doesn't hurt to contact them just to make sure since you are seeing it different online.

Verify with the Front Desk when you check in too. We had several linked reservations because of wait lists, MS verified that all was well, but at check in the middle of our stay wasn't linked.

I too found out my waitlist came through for the last 2 nights of our vacation so we now have 11 continuous nights at BCV, instead of 9 night BCV & 2 nights VWL.

My friend who owns DVC & made the reservation for us and just sent us the paperwork she received.

The "new" reservation for the 11 nights is the same reservation # as it was when it was for 9 nights. Although, the reservation details do have the updated departure date and the points used for this stay has been updated as well.

However, when I go to check on the link I found in another post to check on DVC reservations, that only lists the 9 nights and the original reservation # for the 2 nights at VWL has been cancelled.

Does that sound right? Should I be concerned and have her check on this for me?

Have rented DVC points in the past but never had split stay/waitlist before.

Thanks for your insight.
