I have just called to make a reservation in the 7 month window at BWV. I waited until I could get the whole thing, rather than calling day by day. My mistake. Here's the scoop: I have Aug 23 - 25 at BWV (2 bedroom) then no availability for Aug 26 or 27. Then I have Aug 28, 29, 30 and 31 reserved. I have waitlisted for 26 and 27 at BWV and booked at WLV. I'm trying to decide whether to book the whole first part of the vacation (23 - 27) at WLV (it's available for now) and wait for the waitlist at BWV for all of those days, or whether I should leave it as it is, and hope that I don't have to move twice during my vacation. I would just move over to WLV for the whole time, but my mom is staying at BWV and she likes it there. She likes to be able to walk to Epcot, etc.
So, how well does waitlist work? Should I start calling, or does waitlist really get the spots before people on the phone? Am I likely to get in? I don't think I can hold those first few days at both places, can I?
Advice, please <IMG SRC="/infopop/emoticons/icon_confused.gif" alt="confused">
