Tried to add on days.....

My BF who I am going to Disney with in just 19 days I think has been bitten by the Disney bug and we haven't even arrived yet!! ( This is her daughter and her first trip!!)

So she wanted us to add on 2 more days to our trip and we were on the site and on the phone with CRO this morning with NO LUCK!! Nothing is open on the 7th (which I figured after reading kim's posts) and nothing on the 8th either!! (well only yacht club and there's no way i can afford 700+ for 2 nights --and that was WITH my passholder's discount!!)

I asked the lady on the phone at CRO what could be going on and she said perhaps a convention or something....

Re: Tried to add on days.....

Man I wonder what is going on the 7th and 8th! That's nuts...

Definitely keep trying, there are bound to be some cancellations within the next few weeks!

Re: Tried to add on days.....

If nothing is available, chalk it up to fate. You made logical decisions up to this point, why go off course?

Im always giddy before my trip, and would eagerly add a week to the stay. However, I usually am vacationed out and am ready to leave on time. There can be too much Disney sometimes. (*gasps* and sneers of derision from buzzers).

Re: Tried to add on days.....

DH hates the idea of me staying extra days!! He's jealous enough all ready that I'm going to be [as he puts it] "in our special place" with someone else!! And maybe he'd be PO'd since he requested off of work the day after I come back (I'll get home extremely late on Thurs night--And I took that Friday off of work too)

But this would mean more time in Disney...hmmm...what to do, what to do....

Re: Tried to add on days.....

I often wind up adding a day before or after. This last main vacation, we added on an extra day on our last day, though usually I'll add the extra day before we leave home.
Of course, it wasn't so bad because we were using up all our dining credits that day, so food was beyond payed for on that final day!

Stick with the plan, especially if he took off work to be with you when you return

Re: Tried to add on days.....

Isn't arround that time that Disney welcomes the Hight school cheerleeders from all arround? it's usually before the Daytona races which all resorts are fully booked.

Re: Tried to add on days.....

I would definitely keep trying. If you don't find something just go offsite. There are so so so many hotels that are withing a mile or 2.

Re: Tried to add on days.....

offsite is a no go for us. we are using dme so that we don't need to rent a car and staying offsite we'd need a car for sure.

jen i'm with you---what happened to the Off Season???

Re: Tried to add on days.....

I understand about not wanting to stay off site. But I don't think that you would necessarily need a car.....Most of the hotels offer free shuttles.
