I am hoping my fellow Disers can give me some advice. Right now, I am booked for 7 nights in a value studio at AKV for our fall break. We are wanting to just stay 5 nights, so I had planned on cancelling two of the nights, but knew due to my DH's work I was going to have to wait until closer to time to see whether I would need to cancel the first night or the last night. Well, here's the problem. My DH is retiring this year, but he is going to continue coaching football. The team may or may not play on our check-in day (a Saturday) depending on whether they win a previous game, so I figure that night definitely needs to be cancelled. But here's the kicker (no pun intended)...they may play that Tuesday and/or Saturday of our break. The problem is we won't know until about two weeks out, so our points would go in holding if we have to cancel. There is no other break we can travel, and I would prefer not taking days off if I can help it. I'm trying to decide whether to keep the reservation and chance it or not. I will be upset if I cancel it and book other dates (which would require me to take off and would also require flying so an additional cost) and then he doesn't have to work. But if I don't go ahead and book other dates and then he does have to work, there will be nothing available. If I keep the reservation, I'm thinking about travel insurance which I think would cover this situation due to work requirements, but I'm not sure how that works. I realize you get a certain amount to cover each point, but what happens to the points? If anyone has been in this situation, I would love to hear from you. Or if you just have some advice, I would appreciate it! Thanks!
