We made our room only reservation today for our week in November. We got two rooms with my parents in one and me, my boyfriend, my sister, and my cousin in the other.

Now my mother made the whole reservation, I never came on the phone once. The CM said that she had to put it as two seperate reservations and gave my mother two confirmation numbers, one for her room and one for mine.

They have never done this before, but she said that we had to do it this way. I think this will give us less of a chance of having connecting rooms. I'm also never present at check-in and I figure I would have to be now. Can we fix this so we only have one confirmation number?

I don't know if you can fix that now or not.

You will get two keys keyed to one room, and 4 to the other with 2 reservations. If it was one reservation, you'd get 6 keys keyed to both rooms.

We had 2 reservations when I went with my sister and her family 1.5 years ago. We used the same TA and had that agent 'link' the reservations together (I was paying for one room, my sister for the other, even though one of her boys was officially in my room and 2 of them actually slept there), and we were able to get connecting rooms, which was SUPER helpful with 3 kids all 10 and under (and meant Aunt Cathy didn't have to deal with waking them up/getting them moving/etc!!!)

I'm assuming the Disney agent linked the reservations together, and if your mother REQUESTED connecting, there's a decent chance you'll get it (pending availability, etc, etc).

Yea we really like connecting rooms because of the extra bathroom. If someone is getting ready in one bathroom someone else can use the other bathroom in the other room.

I just thought it was so odd because we didn't ask her to do that. We only used 1 credit card. We have to call back to see if the AAA rate is cheaper, so we are going to make sure they are linked together and request connecting (that is the one with the door inside right?). Because cousin Kristin does not want to deal with waking up a teenager.

That's what I'd do.

And yes, connecting is door between without going outside, adjoining is common wall, but you have to go outside to get between rooms.
