My wait list for a BLT Std Studio for 1 nt came through, thus completing our 4 night stay Dec 1-5. So I cancelled our backup Dec 15-19 BLT Std Studio. Someone's going to be happy!
Nice! When did you put in the WL request?
Extremely limited availability, especially for studios, in early December shouldn't come as a surprise to anyone. I booked a couple of months ago for a 2 bedroom lockoff at OKW. Given that people like to travel in early December because of all the Christmas stuff being up in the parks and the lower points needed, and given that many travel with extended family and want lockoffs (which take a studio and one bedroom) it is easy to see why studios would be in short supply for that timeframe.
At 7 months we were able to get a roll in shower at SSR. Did you try there?Ya, this is a bit of a bummer. We wait-listed for our home (Poly) and OKW. Figured it was a unicorn since we need a roll in shower but nope, notta/zilch avail. I went ahead and booked a cash room and was able to find one at Coronado Springs for 300.00 a night. Staying 5th through 9th. Hopefully something will come up but not holding my breath.
Ouch $300 a night. DVC is so worth it when you look at cash prices even at the moderates. I hope that includes tax and then if you have a car you have to pay for parking. It can add up quickly.Ya, this is a bit of a bummer. We wait-listed for our home (Poly) and OKW. Figured it was a unicorn since we need a roll in shower but nope, notta/zilch avail.

Ya, we tried there. I was playing earlier this morning and found Dec 7-9 at SSR and started booking it. Hit confirm and someone had already snagged it. Started over and there was 1 night avail. Same thing happened again.At 7 months we were able to get a roll in shower at SSR. Did you try there?
Ya, that included tax. Magical Express for us. Work for an airline. Im not paying to park a car. Thats just nonsense!Ouch $300 a night.

It's been like this in early December for years now.I've never seen it so busy in December- seems to be Star Wars effect.

If you are a direct buyer then Disney will do a “welcome home” booking for you.HI
I'm a new Dvc member and was hoping to plan my first trip for the holidays in December. Has anyone gotten in during December after being on the wait list?? Plane tickets are reasonable right now, but I have no confirmed place to say.
Just checked again on a whim and the entire month of December opened up for studios at SSR. People must have jumped their res to Riviera?? I booked 4th-9th.
Riviera was already booked for open+ several days as of last night by Riviera owners, and doesn't open until 12/16.Just checked again on a whim and the entire month of December opened up for studios at SSR. People must have jumped their res to Riviera?? I booked 4th-9th.
