Can I contact you if I can't find the answer
to my question?
Of course you can. Send an e-mail to
David at DVCRequest.com
|
How much do you charge per point?
$13.00 US per point is the current rate. To
ensure fairness to all of my guests, I do not
negotiate different prices. I try to keep the
prices the same throughout the year but there
may be times when supply and demand require
modification. Lower prices may be offered to
subscribers of my
last minute specials
newsletter, but last minute specials are
usually restricted to reservations within 60
days from their release date and limited to
stays at the larger resorts (due to room
availability on short notice). |
Are there any other hidden costs?
$13.00 US per point is all I charge. Of course,
this does not include park tickets, meals or
airfare. Also note, my operations are from
Canada. Recently, some U.S. credit card issuers
have been charging their customers a cross
border transaction fee. You may want to check
with your card issuer prior to providing
payment. |
What form of payment do you accept?
Payment can be made by Visa, or Master Card,
and if you have a PayPal account you can also
pay with PayPal, American Express, or Discover.
There are no additional charges for payment
processing.
|
How do I check how many points are
required?
Use this simple
point calculator
which will show you the total points required
for all room categories at all resorts for
the duration of the dates you select. Hint: Hold
your mouse over the number of points to view the
total price calculation.
|
Can I
check for Vacation Club room availability on
line?
No. The rooms that you check for on the Disney
Web Site are handled by the Central Reservations
Office (CRO) who have a completely different
allotment of rooms than the Disney Vacation
Club. The rooms allocated to the Disney Vacation
Club sell out much quicker than those belonging
to CRO. |
How do I proceed to check availability and
make a reservation?
Complete the
reservation
form which gathers all of the details of the
members of your party, choice of resorts/room
types, and check-in/check-out dates. The more
flexible you are, the greater the chance of
success. A $65.00 US deposit is taken (by Visa,
Mastercard or PayPal), which is refundable to
you if your reservation can not be secured,
usually within 24 hours (weekends and holidays
excluded).
My operations are in
Canada. Recently, some U.S. credit card issuers
have been charging their customers a cross
border transaction fee. You may want to check
with your card issuer prior to providing payment

Do I get a reservation confirmation number?
Yes, you will receive a reservation confirmation
number from me as soon as your villa is secured.
You can then verify your party's details on-line
at Disney.com, by clicking on my
On-Line Check-In Link.

No, but you will receive all the benefits that

such as free transportation to and from the
parks, enhanced magic hours, free parking etc.
If you are interested in a great deal on park
tickets, I have partnered with one of Orlando's
Authorized Disney World Ticket Providers,
who offer discounted attraction tickets. These
tickets can be transferred to your room key (Key
to The World Card) at check in.

Can I cancel a reservation?

borrowing points, reservations can not be
cancelled. You may explore the possibilities of
