What would you do???? Yes you knew it wouldn't be long before I asked....

HA HA.........yes I did comment on your thread. We are two peas in a pod huh??? LOL Well maybe we will see you there.

More than you know - we also had BCV and AKV booked, but gave BCV up as hubby wanted to take kids to Sea World's Aquatica park. I didn't really think this through and cancelled BCV, and then I was able to make him realize that the kids are too small for that (baby needs ear tube surgery at end of April, so I don't want him to be soaking at a water park), so when we tried to get BCV back, it was full. We are excited to be staying at BWV, but to be honest, I think my hubby has us on waitlist for BCV as it's his birthday and he wants to be at Stormalong Bay.

July needs to come already so we can just go on our vacations and stop already with making modifications to our plans! I am totally blaming Disney's new 90 day ADRs though as normally, we would have had ADRs already booked at 180 days, and so we wouldn't have made any other resort switches as we usually do Deluxe Dining plan at some point, and that would have been too many changes to make!

Happy planning, Tiger

is that guaranteed..ie they have no other option? I have standard at jambo and waited listed for value as I knw value is a chance of anything. I figured standard was parking lot.

Yes - all of the standard views at Jambo are pool views. Kidani can be either pool, garden or parking lot - same as the values at Jambo.

OKAY......first stupid me stupid me. It is really not that big a deal I guess, but something just keeps eating at me about my "stupid me" mess up and wondering if we are going to be disappointed. Here goes:

So we added on at AKV late last Aug. So in Sept. I booked 3 nights at AKV Kidani in a dedicated 2br. SAVANNA VIEW. These nights were eventually preceeded by 6 nights at BCV that we booked at the 7th month window in Dec. So this was booked, life was good, we were HAPPY.

THEN...Denise gets the idea of trying Vero Beach. (remember those threads???) and so I cancelled the AKV nights. We couldn't get Vero on points..we were on a waitlist for points so we booked on cash. SO I needed to free up the points from AKV to do this. UGH then about a week later I decided that we really didn't need to spend the money on the cash nights...blah blah blah. SO..I called to rebook and I COULD NOT GET MY SAVANNA VIEW ROOM. BOOHHHHHHHHHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

SO now I am on two waitlists. I am booked 7 nights at BCV and I have our last two nights at AKV Kidani in a standard view room. We are on waitlist for another night also in a standard view room which if it comes through ...gives us back our original 6 at BCV and 3 at AKV. THEN our other waitlist is for those three same standard room nights but waitlisted for SAVANNA VIEW.


SO....here is my what would you do??????

1. Keep what I have??? Standard view at AKV is better than maybe booking those same nights at another resort if available???

OR .......

2. Will we be so disappointed being at AKV and not having a Savanna View...so why stay there this time in a standard view??????

OR.....

Just try and stay at BCV those last two nights and NOT MOVE this trip. The past two summer trips we have split our stays. Which means knocking off one wailist for a new one at BCV.

We are currently in a 2 br dedicated but with the queen sofa setup.

OR.......

THEN..if BCV becomes available or is available when I call....I could still keep the waitlist for the last three nights at AKV Kidani

HELP!!!!! Forgot to add our trip is July 21st.

I think your trip sounds wonderful the way it is! BCV in the summer for a week and then try out a new resort for 2 nights I have a standard view at AKV booked for Sept and I cannot wait!
