ependydad...Doug 176 Posted September 30, 2015 Report Share Posted September 30, 2015 This February, we and a handful of other families are all going to FW at about the same time. Is there something that we can do with our reservations to try and get sites close together (assuming that we all book premium sites)? I don't think we are all checking in/out on the same day. But will be there over the princess marathon weekend. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Not sure if direct bookings can do the same. If not you could send a fax maybe with the confirmation numbers requesting it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Guests without a travel agent can contact Disney directly and request that reservations be linked. You will need to provide all of the reservation numbers that you want to be linked together, and each guest must call and make this request. At the Fort, they will do a pretty good job trying to keep the linked reservations together in one loop (provided you all have the same level of site reserved). As always, nothing is guaranteed. Another option is for one guest to make all of the reservations. But, that person would have to pay all of the deposits. TCD Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Never had occasion to deal with that before becoming a TA so didn't want to speak without knowledge. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ependydad...Doug 176 Posted September 30, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 30, 2015 With this group, it's akin to herding cats. I certainly don't want to do all of the reservations at once. Heck, I offered to coordinate a photographer and family photos and haven't gotten any input. (annoyed) But, as long as we're on the same loop- that should be sufficient.

ependydad...Doug 176 Posted September 30, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 30, 2015 The key question will be - did all of them book the same level of site? The ones who want to camp together will. :) Unfortunately, Disney's being its classic Disney self and aren't showing any Premium sites unless you book for at least for 5 days. We have a few folks who want to do 3 or 4 days. But, given the rig sizes (everyone is a fulltiming family with 35-45' setup). So, I assume no one will pick the full hookup or partial hookup sites.

Having attended Wild Womenz Weekend a few times now - which can be the epitome of herding cats (LOL) - definitely recommend letting a trusty TA like Jason handle it for you. :) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mouseketab.....Carol 1,261 Posted October 4, 2015 Report Share Posted October 4, 2015 Although I love sending Jason the work, if you have 10 SITES or more, there is a group reservations department. I dealt with them years ago for one of the Halloween gatherings. There used to be discounts, but don't know if there are anymore. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
