DVC booking linked to a Direct Booking

baggies · 15 Sep 19, 04:30 PM

I have booked a 2bedroom villa at OKW direct for 7 nights.

After a period of time we have decided to stay one more night, but Disney do not have availability to extend for 1 night.

Rather than moving to another hotel (which is doable of course) I was wondering if I tried to get 1 night by purchasing DVC points if I could link the two bookings together so we do not have to move villas.

Can anyone help ?

Thank you

Before we topped up our Points we had to circa every 2nd year pay cash for a 1 week booking in order to achieve all the stays we wanted.
The 2 bookings cannot be linked together by Member Services but we used to advise the desk clerk at check in stage and they would ensure we didn't have to move.

There is no guarantee they can do it but they never made us move in 10+ years.

Good advice from Tom there. I would also suggest telling them you will not require a clean for the DVC day- this means that they will avoid having to prep a new room for a new arrival- more of an incentive to keep you where you are.

We�ve have done this quite a few times...DVC, cash and DVC. We�ve stayed in the same room when we asked at check in
