dumb TIW question

[mjc2003]

Does the TIW card last 1 year from purchase, or is it only good per trip? I just read up quite a bit on it, and nobody seems to want to tell me when it expires.

It is good until the end of the month the following year. I will be buying one tomorrow and from what I understand, it will be good until August 31st, 2012.

It usually lasts about 13 months or so. It starts when you purchase it.

If you buy a TIW card months after you buy an AP, your TiW card will remain valid for the full 12/13 months, even if your AP expires.

If you buy one in the second half of a month it may be valid until 1 year from the end of the following month. I had this happen a couple of times but don't know if it is still the case. My current one is good until the end of Oct and I purchased it in Sept last year.

Thanks all. We are going in two weeks for a 5 day trip, and in November for a 10 day trip. The upcoming trip will only be the 4 of us, but we tend to eat out most of the time outside of breakfast. We also plan on spending a few days at the pool, which "may" include a few adult beverages. Our November trip will include 7-10 people with us most of the time. My question was really concerning whether or not the card would be good to cover both of these trips, but since they are only a few months apart it sounds like it will.

From what I can see, the card should be just about paid for from this upcoming trip, and our November trip (which includes 7 ADR's including 4 for 10 people) we'll really reap the benefits.
