I’m at the 7th month mark for our annual January trip. We’ve been making this trip since 2009. We are making our way through all the DVC properties and this time it’s OKW’s turn. We’re excited to stay there.
I logged in to make the reservation, knowing how OKW (and SS) are the last to fill…always available…etc…
I’m without a room for the 2nd night of the trip. I waitlisted it. I actually called and booked on the phone and the CM was able to get me more nights than what I could have done on the website. So, that’s good.
But, park attendance is just going nuts. I’m talking about the 3rd week in January. Historically 2-3 crowd levels. The 18th is pegged at a 10 right now.
Is anyone else having similar issues? I know @PrincipalTinker was trying to get Copper Creek a couple of months back and that was tough at the time.
For those who have waitlisted, do they contact you to let you know it’s available? Or do I need to keep checking?
Ok, I’ll do that. With all the rooms out there, (and more to come with Riviera & eventually Reflections), it seems like demand is just at an all time high.
I wouldn’t be surprised if it is a rise in “after effects” of the SWGE opening. That is, people waiting for the initial rush to “die down”, and also waiting long enough to ensure RotR is open.
