Mobile Waitlist chances?
I have 7 out of my 9 nights booked for Bay lake tower & I'm wait listing the other 2 which are the 3 & 4th July 🙈 Anyone had any experience wait listing these dates I was lucky last year & got the same dates no problem at the Poly!

What room type and view? Standard and theme park studio are a big ask then. But then again, it only takes one person to cancel if you are first in line.

You might want to waitlist lake view as well - BLT is popular at 4th July due to only members staying at BLT can use the TOTWL.

I think you'll struggle for the 3rd and 4th, those are the only two nights when you have to be staying at BLT on points to access the ToTWL as MK show their special fireworks both nights. If the 3rd & 4th are your first two nights I'd switch to a lake view (they currently have availability from the 5th). You'd stand the best chance of getting a lake view as there are more studios in that category. Also don't rely on your waitlist just coming through, keep checking yourself every day and if you spot a room, book it and then ask MS to link it to your existing reservation.

We’re at BLT from 1st - 8th July so if you manage to get the 3rd and 4th we’ll look out for you at the TOTWL
