Kimski 2 Posted March 11, 2012 Report Share Posted March 11, 2012 Hi all:We are heading to the Fort on 26-March through 1-April on vacation, then I have a conference at the Contemporary through April 5th. I keep calling and trying to add days to our reservation at the Fort so I can cancel the Contemporary, but no luck as of yet.I know I can keep calling, but is there a way either before we get there, or upon arrival we can be put on a waitlist if a site opens up? I don't even mind changing sites.If we can't get in, what is the opinion on leaving the MH in the overflow, or in the parking lot at the Contemporary, and why?Any input would be appreciated.

mouseketab.....Carol 1,261 Posted March 11, 2012 Report Share Posted March 11, 2012 Keep checking back. Keep checking online for different combinations of dates even before and after your current and wanted dates, and then keep checking once you check in.If all that fails, then yes, leaving the MH in overflow or in the Contemporary parking lot is not a problem.

Grumpy and Grandma 740 Posted March 11, 2012 Report Share Posted March 11, 2012 Transfer your reservation to one of the Travel Agents who are members on this board and see what they can do. You'll be surprised what their "Magic wands" can do. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
wdwpoohbear...Jennifer 40 Posted March 11, 2012 Report Share Posted March 11, 2012 Why don't you try to overbook by a week or two the dates you need and then cancel the days you don't need. That may work. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
GaDawgFan.....Kelly 799 Posted March 11, 2012 Report Share Posted March 11, 2012 I emailed Judy on the advice of some fiends in chat, but we already had reservations, so I need to plan to use her next time. That said, I know she had (as of last night) a premium site until April 5th because she had someone cancel. I can't remember her screen name, but someone will jump in and say it I'm sure.

GaDawgFan.....Kelly 799 Posted March 11, 2012 Report Share Posted March 11, 2012 Oh, and we'll be there March 31-April 8th, so maybe we'll meet you! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

You'll be surprised what their "Magic wands" can do.That's what Kelly suggested below, but I don't know the screen name for Judy - who appears to be holding a Premium site for the dates I need - Wouldn't that be perfect?Why don't you try to overbook by a week or two the dates you need and then cancel the days you don't need. That may work.Hi wdwpoohbear! Love the screen name, anyone who knows me knows I love the Bear! (and there is only one - don't even get me started on Duffy)I emailed Judy on the advice of some fiends in chat, but we already had reservations, so I need to plan to use her next time. That said, I know she had (as of last night) a premium site until April 5th because she had someone cancel. I can't remember her screen name, but someone will jump in and say it I'm sure.Hi Kelly!Thanks so much, that's exactly what I need - it would be perfect, now if anyone can remember Judy's screen name so I can message her, our first trip in our new RV could be spent completely at the Fort!Oh, and we'll be there March 31-April 8th, so maybe we'll meet you!That would be great, we're looking forward to meeting as many Fiends as possible each trip!

doodlebug....Cherie 461 Posted March 12, 2012 Report Share Posted March 12, 2012 Judy is on FB chat right now!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kimski 2 Posted March 12, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 12, 2012 Thanks again all, I can't seem to get into chat...... I'll keep trying to reach Judy however, thanks for all the quick responses! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
GaDawgFan.....Kelly 799 Posted March 12, 2012 Report Share Posted March 12, 2012 Yes, that's her. Click on her link, or email me at (in the interest of your safety, the admins took your email off and ask that you get people to pm you) and I'll send you her email info.We don't want people emailing you with all kinds of viagra ads and such! :)The regular public peeps on the internet can't see what you post in a pm, so you can tell people your email there. We want your address to stay your address! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kimski 2 Posted March 12, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 12, 2012 Email sent - Thanks! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AuburnJen 777 Posted March 12, 2012 Report Share Posted March 12, 2012 Sorry that I had to edit the post there. I really don't like doing that, but since this is the public section of the boards, anybody can see, guest or member. Your email address could be hijacked and I would have felt terrible. I hope you got a hold of Judy. She is one of the best! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Retired & Tired (Judy) 90 Posted March 12, 2012 Report Share Posted March 12, 2012 Judy can get it for you if anyone can. Contact her asap. Good Luck and have loads of fun. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kimski 2 Posted March 12, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 12, 2012 Hello again!Thanks one and all! Especially to Kelly for publicly risking having her email address hijacked for my benefit. I was able to contact Judy, and now have reservations at the Fort for our entire length of stay! . :thewave1: :jumpforjoyFirst question posted to this board, and it was not only a very happy and positive outcome, but was answered by so many so quickly. I think I'm really going to love being a FIEND! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
