    QUESTIONS ABOUT THIS?

    How many are interested in attending and which days? So we will have an idea how many we should try to get reservations for?

    What DVC members will be trying to make reservations on Tuesday October 24 at 9:00AM and for which day or days?
    I am going to try to book some for BOTH days (if they will let me). Which day are more of you interested in attending?
    I may have trouble being able to do it right at 9AM, but I plan to try.

    I'll attend both if there's space available.

    I too am going to try and get as many spots as allowed for both events. I have my alarm set for 8am (CST) for the 24th...

    I had talked with one of the DVC Agents at my resort a few weeks ago and they thought that you should be able to reserve both. (But we will see once it opens). I suppose that there were/are not that many with reservations that cover both events (now and in the past)...

    I'd like to attend on Dec. 11, if someone will allow me to tag along after I get back from Universal.

    Hopefully we can get enough to cover everyone that wants to go.

    Based on the sign up list so far (10/10), there are 8 listed that will be there when the parties take place (plus 4 more listed with TBD).

    When we did the DAK event in September my parents were not able to make it since they didn't want to get stuck in Florida for the hurricane. When we checked in for the event we gave back the extra two spots and the CM said that they get lots of last minute walkups so you don't have to worry about someone not getting in if you don't fill all the spots you reserved.

    Thanks for that info, Dave. That is good to know.

    Stupid question. In the earlier thread started by Jeff, it sounded like a member could bring 5 guests or the number of guests in their DVC room, whichever is greater. In the info Jackie posted above it sounds like you're limited to the number of guests on your reservation unless you don't have a reservation in which case you're limited to 5 guests.

    Does anyone know which is correct? I only ask because if the second option is correct, we won't be getting any non-DVC folks in.

    I noticed that also, Michael. To me it doesn't seem likely that a DVC member without a resort reservation would be allowed to bring 5 guests while someone with a resort reservation could only bring the number on their reservation, but not up to at least 5 guests. Of course, if their reservation had more then 5 they bring them all.

    When I asked, they made it seem like it was the # of guests in you room or up to 6 total... which ever is the greater number. Keep in mind that a 2Bdr villa can hold 10-12 people (and even more in the Grand Villas).

    Its definitely a minimum of the member plus 5 guests, up to the number of people on the reservation. I have always booked 6 total attendees and we have always had only two on the reservation.

    Thanks for the update everyone. That's what I hoped the answer was, but wanted to make sure given the wording differences. I guess I've been reading too many contracts lately.

    Yes, but on which date you are able to book is the bigger question. Though I think the DAK event took a day or two to "sell out" once it opened to everyone...

    **BUMP**
    Don’t forget that for those of us with DVC Resort Reservations, event booking opens up on Tuesday (10/24) early in the morning. Sounds like it has to initially be done online but I’m thinking of calling afterwards (or a day or two later) to confirm.
