What is the ONE thing you would change about DVC, DVC rules?

Remember though… booking day by day was an option, not a requirement. It was generally only used for the hard to get rooms.

Just like walking today is only “needed” for the hard to get rooms.

I don’t know that I’d call it a reverse walk. In my mind walkers are booking dates they do not plan to keep as they walk their reservation forward towards the dates they really want. Under the old system folks were booking nights they intended to keep, they were just doing it one day at a time to make sure they got all of their days. So for my typical 10 night stay I’d need to call MS 10 mornings in a row adding a day to my reservation each morning.

It’s definitely not a walk and this stops walking. The question is whether it’s a better or worse booking way for owners as a whole.

The board said they changed it because of the complaints the day by day owners were doing, and felt they had to do to not end up with gaps…which some did.

This was all before online booking and how much larger DVC is now…

So, we continue to wait and see if they find a way to change the booking process rules to fix it without making it something many owners see as worse, not better.

Glad I’m not them.

I wish direct DVC members were given a fast track for Disney Druise Line Castaway Club status. It would cost Disney nothing, make DVC-Direct more appealing, and incentivize DVC members to book a cruise. Members would appreciate the free perk too; it's a win-win-win.

If they gave DVC members a status-credit for 3 sailings, and take a cruise out of curiosity (and get to immediately use Silver Status), that would bring them to 4 cruises. At that point, they're only one cruise away from Gold Status and officially on the hamster wheel of chasing status.

This is a great idea!
