ozmunchkin 4 Posted April 27, 2015 Report Share Posted April 27, 2015 I booked 2 reservations for the Fort one for May and one for Christmas. With my work schedule it looks like we will not be able to make it Christmas and I told hubby to cancel December. He canceled May accidentally and now there is no availability for our May trip. Does anyone have a small family going who would be willing to share their campsite for a small tent for myself and my teen daughter. We would split the site cost with you. :) We are looking at flying in on Thursday May 21 and departing May 24. There is no availability anywhere but moderate and above Saturday which is out of our price range. Since we are coming for the 24 event we would love to not have to cancel our trip. If you would be willing to let us split the cost and add us to your site so we can do Magic hours please let me know. Thanks!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Grumpy and Grandma 739 Posted April 27, 2015 Report Share Posted April 27, 2015 Why not contact our Travel Agent "extraordinaire" (and I use that term loosely :rofl2:) Jason and see what he can do. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ozmunchkin 4 Posted April 27, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 27, 2015 Thanks for the spam alert. Didn't think about that. I have contacted 2 travel agents who have confirmed nothing for Friday Saturday and Sunday, but thanks for the suggestion. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

He's been known to find extra "Pixie Dust" to sprinkle around and "Poof" you have a reservation. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I have contacted 2 travel agents who have confirmed nothing for Friday Saturday and Sunday, but thanks for the suggestion. At the moment I would agree with them. Make sure you keep checking though. Chances are very good someone will cancel and you could get in as we get closer. Bet there not as good as Jason when it comes to working that "Disney Magic"..

ozmunchkin 4 Posted April 27, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 27, 2015 My main problem is I have to cancel my airline reservations within 15 days of arrival to not have to lose $850 in tickets- which gives about 10 days to find a solution. I found last minute availability December 23 last year. I appreciate the feedback and am keeping my fingers crossed that someone takes me up on my offer. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mmfancipher 31 Posted April 27, 2015 Report Share Posted April 27, 2015 I may be way off-base, but doesn't this sound vaguely similar to another thread?

ependydad...Doug 176 Posted April 27, 2015 Report Share Posted April 27, 2015 Oh man- my wife and I were scheduled to be at the Fort at the same time, but have since gone nutty and made reservations for the Contemporary. We would have let you onto our site in a heartbeat. ozmunchkin 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Travisma 1,317 Posted April 27, 2015 Report Share Posted April 27, 2015 I'm sure Jason already tried, but have you opened up your availability dates? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tri-Circle-D 2,059 Posted April 27, 2015 Report Share Posted April 27, 2015 Something ain't right here. I just plugged in some random dates (at 4:15 pm today, April 27, 2015), and was offered a Premium site for the dates of May 20th to June 3rd. Any travel agent knows how to whittle those dates down to give you the dates you're looking for: TCD BradyBzLyn...Mo 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Tri-Circle-D 2,059 Posted April 27, 2015 Report Share Posted April 27, 2015 If the OP had a TA keeping an eye on things for her, she'd have her site reservation with not too much trouble. As I said, something ain't right. TCD Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ozmunchkin 4 Posted April 27, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 27, 2015 Maybe there is availability now will have to check after work but there has been no availability for Saturday or Sunday. Also this is the only post I have ever made here. I am active on the Disney Campers on Facebook. I appreciate the positive feedback and suggestions. However negative PMs and sarcastic posts aren't needed, as I am just exploring my options to keep from canceling my trip. Thank you to everyone else's input. I also noticed the Fort shirts are now on the Disney Parks website . Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Any travel agent knows how to whittle those dates down to give you the dates you're looking for: TCDOP said there was availability for moderate or and above. And that those sites were out of her price range. I'm assuming she meant preferred and premium were available but that those sites were out of her price range. I'm sure she is trying to book a full hook up or tent/pop up site. So nothing ain't wrong. You just found the same info OP probably found and I found. Only premium sites available. Nothing else. We have to remember that not everyone, especial new Fiends knows the system as well as other more experienced Fiends, and might just be looking for assistance. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ozmunchkin 4 Posted April 28, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 28, 2015 Tcd - I didn't direct anything toward you. But I am not sure why you keep saying something is not right. I appreciate the people who pmed me that were kind and respectful. I have been a fiend member for a while and get alot of good information here but I don't think I will be posting here again. Thanks to those who provided helpful information and those who sent me some kind words. Didn't post with the intent of any drama on the board or via pm. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
