Today Disney Vacation Club has begun accepting reservations from owners at the Bay Lake Tower at Disney's Contemporary Resort and the Treehouse Villas at Saratoga Springs for their respective Home resorts.  Owners can now book check-in dates up through January 8, 2010 at the two newest DVC properties. 

Other DVC members can begin booking these two properties on February 22, 2009, up to 7 months in advance of their desired arrival date.  

Expect busy signals and long on-hold times as many members begin booking these locations for the first time.

DVCmember.com has announced a new way to book non-DVC resorts using their website. This applies to Walt Disney World,  Disneyland Resort, Tokyo Disneyland Resort, and Hong Kong Disneyland destinations which are part of The Disney Collection.  Note that Disneyland Resort Paris is excluded due to the requirement that guests purchase a ticket along with their reservation.

Disney Vacation Club recently announced some policy changes regarding the number of wait-list requests members may have active at a given time.  The statement is a bit ambiguous in exactly how these limits will be applied, so we went looking for some answers.

Beginning February 1, 2009 Disney Vacation Club will implement limits on the number of waitlist requests that its members can have active at a single time.

Disney Vacation Club has issued the following statement regarding the posting and subsequent removal of the points charts for 2010:

On January 21 a version of the 2010 Vacation Point Charts was incorrectly posted. An updated version will be made available within the next week. Members with valid email addresses on record will receive an email when the new charts are available. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused.

Stay tuned!
