We live in Northern California and visit Disneyland every other year in December and then again during the summer. We usually stay for a week at a timeshare resort about 20 minutes away, but now it seems to make more sense to buy on property. We are also planning to visit WDW in 2018. We have 5 children so we absolutely need a 2 bedrooms and will for at least the next 20 years since our youngest is under 2.
Looking at the points chart I can see we will need a significant amount of points to stay during those seasons - much more than I have seen in any single contract. So I am trying to determine what makes the most sense in terms of buying. I know we need to purchase with DGC as our home resort so we have the 11 month window. If we also purchase a contract from a Florida resort would we be able to bank those points and combine them to have enough for a DGC reservation? And of course vice versa for our Florida reservations?
