2027 Points Charts Predictions

IIRC, CFW no longer uses the “unit” term. They now use “phase” with the declarations.

All contracts are no longer assigned a specific unit/phase.

Correct because you are simply buying a RTU plan for any inventory in the trust that is activated into your specific plan.

This is another reason why I can see them putting LSL into the trust and selling it that way vs leasehold condo.

Even if it is not combined with CFW, the flexibility that DVD has within that model is much better.

For example, no more needing to RoFR specific units to create a set of points to sell.

Point reallocations across the entire resort and even multiple resorts in the same plan.

FL 718, the condo regulations don’t apply.

Now, all the resorts added inventory in phases too so that phrase is not new, but what they do is simply “activate” new inventory and state the points that go with it.

It "can" be. It can also be on the curve of the BLT that faces Space Mountain and the water there.

Some of my favorite views in any of the resorts though are at BLT, the ones that truly face the lake. Lovely in the morning while drinking coffee.

As for "cheapest," I'll happily pay the difference here for Preferred view. But I'm really hit and miss on many other of the upgraded view categories in terms of their value. For example over in Poly, unless you're on the third floor of Moorea, I'm not sure the upgraded view is much better than what you get in Tokelau. (Admittedly better than anything in Pago.). When people book for the view, I think a lot of them have that one perfect view in their heads--and that one perfect view is there, but also a bunch of other rooms in the same booking category with less-than-perfect views. And in PIT studios, many many less than perfect views. So there's two elements: (1) is the extra cost of the view worth it and (2) if it is, how lucky will I be in the crapshoot of rooms when they are dealt out.

My first stay at Poly, I got 3017 Moorea and it was *AMAZING*. We watched the fireworks show twice from our balcony, and just absolutely loved it.

That said, my next Poly stay is booked for a resort view, mostly to save points.

It just feels so sketchy to me that they could use the trust to dilute the value of points if they wanted to. To me, that would be a deal breaker. 50 years is a long time.
