Member Cruise - additional rooms

[Jenny0725]

Not sure if anyone mentioned this....

I just saw on the DVC web site that there are additional staterooms available for the member cruise in February.

Booking will be available on November 22nd.

Thanks for the info.

I always know using the points to cruise is expensive, but never know what the real difference is until now.

I just booked, through Dreams Unlimited, a 4-night wonder for 4/04 for 2 categoy 10 connecting rooms, the total price is a little under $2,400 for 5 people.

I thought maybe I will consider the member cruise if the point chart is OK. I just checked the website and it would take 399 points, that would translate to $6 per point.

When I bought my BCV points, my guide was telling me that he thinks even $10 per point for rental is too low in his opinion.

Oh well, I guess we will wait for the next time if they ever offer anything last minute with better point structure, if it ever happens

Thanks.We tried to add DM just a few days ago and they told us it was completely full Does this mean they now went through the whole waitlist and still have some rooms?

Wait, the calculation is wrong because the rate that I was using is for a 4-night cruise on cash, while the member cruise is only for 3 nights. So the price per point is probably under $5.

I hope the Member Cruise is 4 nights because that is what I booked!

poohstx,

oops, sorry. ok, that is a little better. i will go back to correct my post. thanks

I would love to take the member cruise to meet other DVCers, maybe next time when my kids are a little older and if they can have a cruise a little later so the weather is likely to be warmer.

Have a great time, everyone!!!

I can't wait for our cruise, but it is still so FARRRR OUT.
