I’m trying to get our SOG reservations linked to MDE so we can make our FP. I had no trouble with our room- DH’s name automatically imported and I was able to change the two random SOG names to DD and me. The problem is coming with the rooms DH sponsored for my parents and my grandma. My mom tried to link her reservation, and it automatically imported DH’s name as the first guest in the room, and there is no way for her to change it to her name. She could edit the second guest name to my dad’s name, but not the first. She called WDW and the CM told her that the first guest listed has to be DH. She said that because of the “Rule of Inheritance” DH is the only one who can make FP reservations, and he can pick who he makes them for. My mom tried to tell the CM that this doesn’t make any sense and that she needs to change the name in MDE so we can make the FP reservations, but the CM just kept insisting she had to follow the Rule of Inheritance. My mom asked her then how DH is supposed to make FP at 60 days for people not listed on the reservation, but the CM would never answer the question. So, my mom called me and asked what she should do. I thought that maybe if she called back and got another CM she could get it straightened out, but I wanted to check with the experts here for advice first. I’d appreciate any help. Our FP booking opens up in just a few days. I don’t think my mom even tried to do anything with my grandm’s room, but if it automatically imports DH’s name like it did with my parents’ room, she will be in the same situation with that one, too.
