Thats annoying 😏 I was the same up until yesterday. I wouldn't be walking if it wasn't for other walkers and added to the fact it's CCV and so hard to get normally let alone at Christmas!

Are you trying again this year or do you not plan to go at that time again?

Disney marketing and business strategy at its best !

Keep trying each day. Try booking 1 night, that's what I did yesterday and then amended the booking as soon as it had confirmed. Not sure if it made a difference but that was my experience and what worked for me. Prior to that I had been trying to book the 7 nights. Each time I attempted at bang on 1pm and lost out even though it was seconds after the booking window opens. So make sure your finger is ready to hit the book button at that time.

Good luck! 🍀🍀🍀

No worries! Failing that, can you book a lake view as a back up if you can't get a standard view after a couple of days of trying? That will be easier to book at least.

Ah ok! Didn't realise you're trying to book a 1 bed. Those I believe are the easiest villas to bag so fingers crossed you'll be ok!
