At first I thought it had to do with slow season. The first time we went to AKL (in September), we did have a Savanah view, but wasn't the best. When the CM saw the kids get so excited about seeing the animals, he said the view in this room wasn't sufficient, took us back down to check in, talked to another CM, and then proceeded to take us to three different rooms, giving us the choice with the best view. A couple of weeks ago, school was still out, and when we pulled into AKL seeing the entire parking lot filled up, we knew it was going to be a crowded week. Walked up to register, gave our name and the first thing out of CM's mouth was "Congratulations, you've been upgraded to a savanah view." (We had resies for pool view to save some $.) So, now I question why they do this, but don't ask (don't want to rock the boat!!!!)

I wonder if I could upgrade from a FW partial hook-up site ($40/night) to a suite in the GF tower?

As soon as I made my reservation for our December EL trip, I immediately but in a request for bunk beds (you can't reserve them apparently, just request) and and MK view. I plan on adding to my requests I'd like one of the refurb rooms on the 4th-6th floor, and something close to the lobby.

I know, it sounds like I'm picky, but I figure, I don't get to stay Deluxe everytime I go, and I've never been there for Christmas time, so I'm allowed to make it as special as I can.
