Point usage question if you own at 2 resorts

[princess&tig]

If I have 50 points at SSR and 150 points at the BCV? Can I book 100 points at 11 months at SSR? In other words, can I use non-home resort points at my other home resort at 11 months?

If I could, it would be a good deal to own at least 1 point at every resort.

You can book between 7 and 11 months only with points at the home resort -- so that is 50 points at SSR and 150 points at BCV.

Non home resort booking begins at 7 months.

You would have to borrow 50 points from your SSR points, and the total number of points for the reservation cannot be more than 100 if you wanted to book at SSR at 11 months out.

You can use 100 points at SSR at 11 months only if you borrow points from that account.

The 11 month priority is only for points at your home resort- you can't combine them with points from other resorts until 7 months.

You also can't own 1 point at any resort- 25 is the minimum.

Enjoy!

No, you can't - for the reason you allude to in your last sentence.

If you want to use 100 points at SSR at the 11 month window, you will have to either bank the previous year's points or borrow the next use year's points. Many members who own at multiple resorts use that startegy. They often alternate trips to take advantage of the 11 month window at each resort.

To sum it up, at the 11 month window you may only use points purchased for the resort for which you are making the reservation.

Good thing we all agree on the answer - there shouldn't be any confusion! :teeth:
