I made the call today and made our first ever reservations on points! We got a 2 bedroom at Old Key West for a week in August and a 2 bedroom at Saratoga Springs for four days in December right before Christmas. Yippe!
There was no hold time on the phone to Member Services and they were very nice. I used up almost all our points and need to make a cash reservation for 12-18-04 but they said there were no cash reservations available yet and of course could not guarantee that they would have any. The best they could do was a recommendation to try back later. What do you guys think, is it safe to cross my fingers and try again latter in the year? If so, when?
Maybe I should make a reservation through CRO and hope they get linked?
Would I be better off renting the extra 37 points I need?
Any other bright ideas?
