I forget...

If I make a reservation for BWV, and it turns out I can't go, can I then use those points for one of the Disneyland hotels? I know I can't reserve DL then use for DVC, but wasn't sure about the other way around.

Thanks

Are you cancelling less than 30 days out?

 

[Carolc]

I haven't booked anything yet. If I can't go, I'd probably cancel more than 30 days out.

Are the rules different?

Thanks.

If you cancel 30 days or less, the points become holding points and must be used before the end of the UY. You should still be able to use them at a DL resort, BUT if you are in the last four months of your UY, you probably won't be able to make a reservation at DL except for GCV. You'd have to use them within DVC. The old "Rule of Four".

Whether canceling more than 30 or less than 30 you can still use them at DL.

Deb & Bill has a good reminder about the rule of 4 but it doesn't apply to DL resorts so you don't have to worry about where you are in your UY. You would be able to use them at DLH or PP if you wanted. Or GCV if there was availability. Or at GC if it is before Dec 31, 2009.

And no $95 fee either.
