If you can find a sub, I would just grab it no matter what use year

Dont tempt me... I mean Chili

You guys are super users. I just keep adding on the same resorts, and use all of it as SAP.

I'm such a noob.

Use em or lose em

Nobody filters for SUB. The first clue is a larger per point cost. 2nd clue is use year. 3rd often brokers will add in the listing notes that it is subsidized. I bought 2 that were not notated as sub but they were.

there’s one aggregator which flags some, but not all.

Stop pooping on SSR!! It makes me feel sad as I love it!!

I love staying at the grandstand and then walking to my early morning tee time at LBV! No better feeling after a round then to simply walk back to your villa.

I don’t think I’ve ever seen a September AUL-S. If so, that would be incredibly rare.

I've purchased every [advertised] Oct AUL-S I've come across in the past 4 years-- and that total is 3. Paid the (reasonable) asking prices too cause I didn't want to risk losing them.

Hmmmm I only use 2. I just went back and looked. I see it now. There is no filter to choose it but they are identified with an s at the end. ***************************?resort=AUL

Edit: Darn I thought it may be filtered. Whats hilarious about it, is this one links the forums here

I’ve only seen 2 August subsidized. The first one I was too late. That was a year or two ago. The second one I’m waiting for ROFR.

March and February are the ones I see the most. June also has a decent number.

We got very lucky and ended up with a surprise September AUL-S in January.

January ROFR post
More details…

It wasn’t listed as subsidized but when we got the paperwork for closing it was clear that it was. I believe it was sold by an estate which would explain the lack of understanding on the sellers part.

Right about now I’m jealous we don’t live closer to the west coast

Aulani - especially Sub Aul - is a great deal! It’s only 2 years shorter than our VGF. We buy DVC being very careful about the future, so I prefer sticking to home resorts we’d still enjoy yearly should availability change. I’d love AUL yearly but it’s hard from the east coast -extra time/money.

I feel you. I'd love to go to Aul every year, but that flight is a tough swallow for me.

I'm making the flight back to the East Coast tomorrow and it makes me sad that I'm losing an entire day just going back home.. the only upside I have is that Disney World is in my backyard so I'm looking forward totrying to get into the AP previews for Test Track

That's a pretty massive upside!

I’d like to hear what you think of TT

Of course I had to go torture myself looking at a flight and AUL availability around Halloween.
I’d take any studio as they seem fairly priced for every view, and it doesn’t have the Fri/Sat surcharge like WDW.

Round trip on Hawaiian out of JFK $722 nonstop with carryon & personal item.

Land 2pm on Thursday, with a flight back home leaving 4pm on Tuesday.

Ocean view available. 5 nights x 26pts = 130pts.

So tempting!!! It’s over 11 hours for the flights - EACH WAY. That flight is tough to swallow. The price isn’t too bad since we wouldn’t need to buy park tickets. The ocean, pool, resort and balcony is all the entertainment we’d need. Well that and our sparkly wristband
