Abound waitlist - does it work?

[luv_maui]

I just put in a waitlist for Frenchman’s cove for next February - not president’s week. Today was supposedly the first day I could request the waitlist for my dates when the rep told me last week was calling in too early.

1) what are my chances?
2) in general, does waitlist work

Good, chance, especially if you request at 12 months, subject to the number of nights you are allowed to book at that point.
I've found they do work in general
