MS said they open at 9am EST to book the new 2013 cruise itineraries tomorrow but you can book on the webpage at 8am???????

Not fair.
 

We can't book on line using DVC pts but others who are paying cash can book. What I meant wasw that if you can book on the web at 8am and are looking for a certain room or category, then it takes preference over DVC members (although I think DVC has it's own inventory on the ship). It should be available at the same time.
 
Do they really book up in the first hour?

As someone else noted does DVC have a set # of rooms? If so it would not be effected by cash customers.

Theres no perfect system, and as a teacher you well know life isn't meant to be..... and isn't fair...

They might not even have any inventory at all for DVC members wanting to cruise on points.

MS opens at 9 ET. Kind of like trying to book CRT in the old days and wanting to use the MS number to do it. But the time MS opened for the day, it was booked up already by people calling at 7AM ET.
 
Booked this morning at 9 am and I didn't even have to wait to talk with the DVC rep. It did take me an hour though once we were on the phone to finalize things etc.

That stinks! But why don't you call and put the deposit down for your exact cabins at 8 am and then call MS at 9am and use your poitts.
I cruise often and I always know exactly where I want to be so this would be important to me.
Good luck.
