We were upgraded today from the All Star Sports to the Contemporary. We arrive in Disney tomorrow a.m. I received a call at 4:04 this evening informing me of our upgrade. We have a group going, so this is a gathering of 9 people and we are all upgraded!!!! I have never heard of such a thing. Does anyone know why they do this?

When are you going? I'm assuming they are making more room for more people for the values.....?

Well, actually they called the whole group. Tanya, the wonderfully nice lady who called :) said she had to verify with all the guests who had the reservations. Like anybody would say "NO." :D

Awesome!!! Could you imagine if someone in your party said "no thanks - we'd rather not upgrade" and then you all didn't get to upgrade??? What a fight that would be!! LOL

Enjoy your time!

Hmm, maybe it has something to do with the All Star Sports...? Maybe we should all be looking to make ressies there instead of somewhere else!;)

That's cool to here. I'm in the unfortunate position of having someone book the trip for me. Since I'm arriving on a Sunday, I doubt my travel agent will be in the office on Saturday to field such a call. I'm starting to question my use of travel agents.

You were "upgraded" because the All-Stars was over-booked, this a standard practice at Disney resorts. Disney knows how to do it right and they inform you it is an "upgrade" to preserve the magic and keep you happy. I hope I did not spoil the magic for you.

Congratulations and Have Fun!

Why use a travel agent when you can easily book through 407-W-DISNEY or online? I personally find it much easier to book through Disney and you dont have to deal with third party travel agents that make errors and earn commissions.

Is it normal for them to call so soon prior to departure? They call from guest services right? We have a call from disney asking them to return their call and they had great news for us but woman was cut off by my answering machine, lol!!!! It figures!! Going to try to track down whats going on, sure I will spend countless time on the phone, we were leaving next Friday to stay in All Star Movies, I am hoping this is an upgrade outta there!!!! Everyone keep fingers crossed.

They do call from guest services right?????
