BLT question

[tinkerbell 766]

If I decided to purchase an add-on at BLT, would I
a) Get the same use year (mine is August)
b) Get my first allocation of points in March when the booking window opens and then another allocation in August 2009

I know I would have to start paying from when I purchase but not sure when I would receive the points
Thanks for your help

Unless you purchased a new master contract, yes you would have the same UY month.

I think that you would get your first allocation of points in to your Aug 2009 UY.

When they start taking reservations for BLT, they will be for stays with a checkin date of 9/1/2009 and later.

You would get your '09 points in August - but no annual dues until September '09.

I am torn between buying at BLT or AKV (50 point add-on) not sure......

I am currently here at WDW and did my tour/meeting today and was told that if I bought at BLT I would get my first allotment of points in February of 2009.

To new buyers, they are selling Feb use year at this time. To existing owners, they sell only the use year the owners already have.

Do you know when they will begin taking ressies from non-BLT owners?

I believe they start taking reservations from non-BLT owners two weeks later, on March 15.

I wonder what my odds of getting a MK studio in Oct will be. Any guesses?

Since they sold 24 million in property the first 2 weeks I would guess you chances would be close to 0 unless you were booking at the 11 month window and then you are still taking your chances. I do wish you well and hope you get what you want...

Where'd you find the $24 million number? First time I saw something like that.

It was interesting because we talked to our guide the Monday after the announcement... "Founders Club almost full, better hurry"

Talked to her 2 days later to start the paperwork "I'll have to check to see if you are in the Founders Club... lots of orders are still being processed"

Toured the models a week later. "Over 700 people have joined the founders club"

Toured the models again on Oct. 14th. "We have over 800 people in the founders club"

Not exactly the breakneck speed they anticipated in that first call.

Anyhow - quick math @ the rack rate of $112/pp, 850 founders members and an average of 160 points is $15million... so $24 is reasonable - I was just curious where the number came from.
