Heads up - Don't reallocate or modify right now if you dont absolutely have to!

My

The reservation I reallocated and that got all messed up was across 2 UY’s.

You have to call ms to book across UY or book separately and merge

Hello, I recently got in a BLT June use year contract (before I found this website). I then realized I may need to get into cross UY bookings because I want to book that last weekend in May then to early June week for family trip, thinking that might help with crowd a little bit and kids will be excited as they will just finish school year. I can’t find too many info how people book it. I’m thinking to 1) use my 2025 points to book last a few days in May 2026, 2) use my 2026 points to book June days, 3) bank my rest 2025 points to 2026, 4) modify June reservation using banked 2025 points, 5) call CM to link the reservation. Do you think this will work? Or better to plan a full June week for my very first booking to keep it less complicated. Thank you!

Seems like this will work, but some of this is still so complicated to me. Hopefully someone can confirm

Probably the easiest way will be to call Member Services and have them book it and arrange the points. Although if you book the May portion online and then call MS to ask them to book the June portion that would work too. I had one reservation that crossed my Use Year and that is how I handled it. Congrats on your new DVC contract!

Any reason you wouldn't swap steps 2 and 3, and thereby not need to do step 4? I might have misunderstood your situation but I think that would work and save a step.

Thank you all for sharing thoughts!!

I’m thinking to secure June portion first and then bank 2025 points. Worried if any part in June not become available then i can still change May portion to have flexibility. Want to book at 7 month at Poly (longhouse is okay) and then BWV. Not sure if availability will be good. I watched some YouTube availability video and DVC field guide think it might work. I will take the advice to call CM after May is booked and see what they can do first. Worst come worst, I will just go a week trip all in June.

I bought BLT, but want to save the BLT stay for 2027. We went to MK and Epcot last year. I saw last summer and this summer both had 3 day 3 park promotion. Hoping next year we can do the 3 parks other than MK. Then BLT is not great for the other 3 park locations.

I can’t wait the contract to close and get to use the points haha!

Just be aware that if you have to cancel that trip anytime after January those points for May dates will be lost.

If it’s possible, I’d do it all in June.
