Is this how it works at 7 months when using points from another resort?

Technically this IS a cancellation and rebooking but simply because DVC chooses to do it this way. In this situation the best option is to have a separate reservation and add the days to it using the VWL points. Then cancel the days not needed on the old reservation. Just make sure the points you get back are bankable. Good luck.

Thanks. No worries on the points I get back, they are all my 2007 UY points which don't even start until October. I hope to use them for another trip next year, or bank them if I can't arrange another trip to WDW.

Good, for some reason I had the idea that part of your AKV points were "current" use year and part were not.

Ah, well that would be true, too. I borrowed 92 points from 2008 UY to make the original reservation. Now my revised reservation uses 186 VWL points and 106 AKV points. The AKV points are 92 borrowed 2008 points and 14 current 2007 UY points. I still have 186 of my 200 points at AKV for 2007 available to me at this point, but I've used 92 of my 2008 points.

When we bought the 200 AKV points, they were "extra" points to us since the 150 we owned at BWV and the 180 at VWL were enough for our 2 planned trips per year. Now I'm glad I have the "extra" points because it makes the reservation process so much easier in cases like this. Not to mention giving me the idea to add a third trip to WDW next year since we have the points anyway. :woohoo:
