I also wonder if some of the openings were already booked and were just ghost openings.

And yet, in mere seconds, these campsites are all fully booked.
I'm not yet ready to concede to those who are saying that the insiders somehow are block booking it prior to opening it up to the public. I also know that they have attempted reforms on their booking system.
