Booking Trip - Making Sure I have the Points

[js]

Hi.

I have 61 points in my September 2020 SSR UY.
I have 420 points in my September 2021 SSR UY.

Is it correct I can book trips for September 2020 and November 2020 and use
the 2020 and 2021 September UY points?

Yes, you can borrow points from your 2021 UY to move them into your 2020 UY in order to book your September 2020 and November 2020 trips. Note that borrowing is irreversible and if you cancel those trips the borrowed points will stay in the 2020 UY and cannot be banked back into the 2021 UY.

Everything is based on UY of the trip, Once you know that, you can pay for it with points banked from the UY prior to travel, points from the UY of travel, and borrow from the UY after travel.

Since both your trips take place in your 2020 UY, you can borrow points for both the trips.

Since you already within the a month window, you can book September trip now and then book the November trip as soon as your 11 month window opens in December.

Perfect. Didnt want to get my hopes up if I was not thinking correctly. Thanks.

Thank you. The November trip I can book next month since it will be my home resort, SSR and booking a GV and my September trip Im going to wait for 7 months to book a one bedroom somewhere else hopefully at GFVs.
Thank you for all your help.

I think most longtime owners here would recommend that at 11 months you book a one bedroom at your home resort for September, then modify that reservation at 7 months to VGF or whichever other resort you prefer that has availability. Waiting until 7 months to even try to book can result in not having a reservation at all, even for a one bedroom. That's what Sandi was trying to tell you when she said:

Thank you. I agree that makes the most logical sense but Im going to chance not booking SSR one bedroom at 11 months and see what happens at 7. I am pretty confident I can get SSR one bedroom at 7 months the week after Labor Day if I cannot get another resort.

Thank you.
