    book @ 9 am @ the 11 month window

    we luv our 'home' @ the BW (yet prefer our 1st one WL even better)

    we always book the standard rooms; in addition to being cheapand needing to stretch our points...im a light sleeper & the BW & pool areas can get boisterous

    good luck!

    Default UY and why it's important

    I own 150 points at SSR UY Dec. Now I LOVE the resort... the ambiance the location by DTD.

    Dec. UY is great for Christmas stays and I also like to go in January after the holidays when everything is quiet. But having said that, there were a couple of times I had to cancel a booking With a Dec. UY I had plenty of time to either rebook or bank the points. So if you are planning on going at that time of year, it's a super UY to have.

    I'm looking to do an add-on at Boardwalk to take advantage of the 11 month booking window for Food and Wine in the Fall. A December UY would be a disaster for this since if I had to cancel, I would be beyond my banking window... so I'd have to struggle to use them before Nov. 30 or lose them

    You can do an add-on even at a sold out resort through Disney, however, your UY will be whatever you original contract is... and I know I don't want a Dec UY for the Boardwalk. So I have been in contact with Jason at TSS and he is going to let me know when a smaller Boardwalk contract comes up with a UY appropriate to F & W stay in the fall... August would be ideal, but as long as I will be in my banking window, it would be OK.

    Don't know whether this helps or is just more confusing, but UY is definitely something to consider!
