Boardwark Studio pts change

[jolynne28]

Anyone else just notice the change to the late May/early June points for a standard studio at BWV? It used to be 10 pts during the weekday, which meant we could use our 50 pts for 5 nights. They've bumped it to 11 pts for 2026. I was already wanting to add on there in a year or two, but still am a little disappointed we'll lose a night until we do.

It's amazing how much a very little adjustment like that can impact folks and their planning. An extra point here in June, one less point earlier in the year to offset - but it's impactful.

Interesting, did they lower the corresponding Pool/Boardwalk? Or, did they just shift the season?

It was a very minor seasonal shift.

Yes, I think there was a thread on this last year when the points charts came out. They increased the lowest points (Jan/May/Sept/Dec) and decreased for the summer months. Hopefully this will reduce demand for the most popular low points months. Very annoying for you though! Only adjusted the resort view studios across seasons, not the other views.

Always buy more points than you "think" you need...this has been an issue for decades and catches lots of members by surprise. It can ruin plans for sure if you can't borrow.

Sorry they got you!

I can understand your frustration, but it doesn't have to impact you for a long time. If you just borrow an extra 5 points from the next year then you have 10 years without a missed night until you need to add on! (Unless of course you're already living on borrowed points!)
