Resale restrictions have killed my interest in this resort. With availability I will stay there.. one day.
Agree. No way will I ever buy this resort Direct. And if I won't buy it then many other people will also not buy Direct. Will Disney pick up enough 'New Buyers' (people who otherwise would NOT have bought Direct, but now will) by making it exclusive? Is the exclusivity a big enough benefit to overcome the restrictions? I tend to think not, because you will have the problem of decreased value when you sell, and not everyone is stupid enough to ignore that. BESIDES, I'm not sure that I see how EXCLUSIVITY is going to help me, as an owner, to be happier with my purchase. What does it really get me? But then,
maybe it will be like Beach Club and defy gravity. If so, then you can thank the Skyliner. But I doubt that would happen. And, it is kind of funny, since I WAS going to buy Direct (I now have $24,000 set aside AND I was going to put that as a
down payment on a financed contract.) But now I won't buy Direct. Am I the only person in this situation? So, they have chased me off from Direct, and turned me into a Resale buyer. If the Resale price is low enough, I will DEFINITELY buy. Was this the intention of Disney when they made the restrictions?
I will be interested in checking it out, a day or two.
Yes, I am hoping it will open in time for Food and Wine, and I will be able to get my request in before everyone else books it out.
Agree it will be a deluxe, and the Skyliner will be a bonus. But, what happens when a storm pops up as they so often do in the summer?
Disney knows where Disney World is. They have half a century of dealing with the weather. They know it is hot in summer. And that there is lightning. And that some storms bring a pretty good wind component. They even know that once in a while, the hurricanes also want to visit Disney World. So, I am sure they took ALL of that into account. You need to realize that Disney is NOT just building more transportation. It is building THE transportation system of the
future. If any of those things was going to be a significant problem, and they couldn't design or build around it, then they would NOT have chosen this.
