waitlist strategy?

[rpk1951]

We have a chance to stop at Disney for 4 days in late September that just happened. Naturally all resorts are booked due to food and wine. We do not where we stay and currently have wait listed two resorts. Is there a resort that has a greater chance of opening that we should use as a waitlist?

SSR

depends on the unit you need & # available at each resort (and it's popularity).

1 BRs seem to be available for dates I check when studios are sold out.

in mid April we decided to extend our October trip to 2 weeks. I was able to book SSR studio starting Columbus day for 4 nights. Waitlisted @ AK - Jambo & Kidani. Noticed Jambo came thru when checking my account 3 weeks later - surprised how quick!

Now, i'm WL'd same dates for BLT & BC. Will be shocked if either come thru lol.

Do you see individual days during the time period you could book & waitlist the days you need? that has worked well for me in the past.

ps don't forget to check the website yourself jik something pops up.

I'd do SSR in two 2 day increments then once you match one, wait list the entire 4 days at a resort you would prefer to be at if applicable.
