    A regular on here as said that the Desires resorts are all sold out too, some take over or something.

    Past history has shown bumping is usually for 1 day and does not happen too much.

    But yes , in todays technological age , there are no accidental over bookings.

    They do offer transportation, but I try not to worry about things you can't control , especially when they have not happened yet.

    They offer things like free nights vouchers in the future to make you feel better.

    A few people have double bunked in the past, makes for some fun stories.

    Hotels & Airlines overbook as they know there are a certain % who will not show up. So if you know that on average 3% of your guests with reservations are no shows, you overbook by 3%. For Temptation and its 380 rooms, you are talking roughly 10-rooms.

    You can also assume some rooms go offline due to repairs.

    What Does Overbooked at a Hotel Mean? | USA Today

    You can check and see if Desire or TTR is sold out by going to the respective websites and looking to see if rooms are available. I've never heard of Desire being overbooked as a whole, yes, they have bumped RM folks to Pearl but never heard of any Desire guest being bumped to TTR or a family resort.

    You will have long days waiting to count someone.
    There will be no bumping to either Desire.

    Bumped to a kid friendly resort...our response might be "Fine, but Jamie didn't bring any bikini tops. Stick that in your waterslide!"

    BTW,, the original post was not about over booking but about putting special requests on the Early Check in submission. ( for rooms ect)


    RE ,, # of turnover per day,, look up the word ''average '' in the dictionary

    RE ''Spock'' ,, thanks I like Leonard Nimoy



    RE War,, I did put ''Not including members'' ( they don't have to pick their rooms cause they get the better ones from the start ) , why must you keep substantiating the value of your membership, who are you trying to convince ?

    Hopefully I don't end up in Kiddy daycare next week.
