Thanks everyone! I ended up transferring a different set of points that match my home resort so all is well.

Hi - I am thinking of buying some OKW transfer points. It's towards the bottom of the list of where I want to stay for an upcoming race weekend. So what I'm wondering is if at the 7 month mark, could I use the transfer points and a few of my own BLT points to book another resort (pending...

Hi - Are your points still available? Thanks!

That is amazing! I am very much a numbers and spreadsheet person so I'm definitely going to use this. I totally get that it really depends on the specific pacer you end up getting and what their walk speed is. My current walk speed is 20:00 but really only because that's what the Galloway app...

Thanks! Sorry to be such a newbie, but for the 3:00 finish time, it has an overall pace of 13:43 and a 30:30 ratio. What I don't understand is what will the running pace of that 30 seconds be? You can't run at 13:43 and then walk slower to still maintain that pace. Is the running portion a...

I will be running my very first half marathon at 2018 Princess. I will admit that I'm a bit nervous about making sure I'm at my pace (don't go out too fast etc) and am very interested in joining a pace group. But that said, I would need to know in advance what each finish time's interval will...

Hello - First off, I am a fairly new member and have only booked 1 reservation thus far and it was straight forward. Now I'm getting ready to book my next reservation and need a little help. We have a February UY of 300 points. 90 left on 2017, 300 on 2018. I need to book a 9 night stay for...

Hi - I have been searching and searching and just can't seem to find out how long the Christmas decorations will be up this year? Also, any idea on how long the Christmas programming goes? i.e. the special fireworks, etc. My DH and I suddenly have a trip booked for Jan 8-12. It seems awfully...

Whew, I thought it was strange that it wasn't bookable online. I will call instead!

Thanks everyone. There was some availability for some of my kids Thanksgiving and Christmas breaks. But, in the end we decided to hold off for now and use the points sometime next summer. It's just so hard to wait!

Think of it as anything you would need to go to the front desk for, the concierge team will do it for you and save you a bunch of time and hassle. Basically, anything you need or want, they will take care of it. On our last trip, our OBC from our travel agent didn't show up on our account...

Hi everyone - My family is on this cruise. It is myself, my husband, and our 3 boys, ages 5, 8, and 11. We did the Fantasy 2 years ago but have never done a SW cruise. My DH and boys will love every second of that day. My biggest unknown is what to do with my 11 year old. Not sure about the...

Hi - We just closed today on our first ever contract (BLT). We won't be able to book for several weeks at best but naturally I'm thinking about how to use the current and banked points. Is it all reasonable to possibly get a reservation this Thanksgiving week or Christmas time? We are not...

I would just add that with renting points, you KNOW you are getting the room discount versus HOPING to get a 30% room discount. Another thing with renting is you need to pay more up front at the time of the reservation versus paying the bulk of the room cost at check-in when you don't rent...

Just found out we passed (6/24)!! I was fairly confident but you just never know! Super excited!!

Hi - I am new to the DVC boards but not new to DIS. Our first ever contract was just submitted today. Details: cheesemouse--$112-$34532-300-BLT-FEB-117/16, 300/17, 300/18- sent 6/1 - seller to pay 2016 MF Thanks for running this thread. It was very helpful with making our offer.

Where does the line usually form? We are doing this package on Thursday and now I'm quite nervous since we have 3 little kids and being able to see the parade is a huge priority. I'm not quite sure where to head around 7:30. Thanks!

Thanks for the update. I just tried to book this for either the 19th or 20th and it showed no availability. I will keep trying I guess. Hard to know if it's a good thing to try or not when it doesn't start until 2 days before I want to do it! Spendy for sure but maybe worth it.

Well, "worth it" varies person to person. And I think the time of year you go and how crowded it is also plays a huge factor. Also, who is in your traveling group? Also, what's your budget? Lastly, how important is the parade to you? For us, we are traveling with 3 kids, so getting a spot...

Thank you both for your help!
