We just passed ROFR on a BWV contract. We lost our first two contracts thru the ROFR process, so we are VERY excited :teeth:. But...we had hoped to be in the system and making ressies by now :rolleyes: . That's okay, we're thrilled with this contract, the only problem is our April trip.

Our plan was to stay at ANY DVC property for 4 days (either studio or 1BR) and 4 days at Vero in a Deluxe Inn Room during the last week of April. By the time we close, we probably won't be able to make ressies until late October. First question...do we stand a chance if we're not picky? I know we won't get BWV...but we probably will waitlist for a studio or 1 BR std. view. I think that is pretty unlikely, but heck it's worth a try. We'd be happy anywhere though at this point.

Second question...we are a June u/y on this contract. In the future, if we want to travel in April, can we make our 11 month ressies at BWV even though we're borrowing points? In other words...say we want to stay at BWV late April 2006, can we call MS and say their we're borrowing points for 4/06 and make the ressies in May 05? Thanks for the advice. Wasn't sure how it worked w/ borrowed points, thought maybe we had to wait until 11 months out from our u/y. Hope this question makes sense LOL!
 
Welcome Home!

You may get lucky on BWV. I was able to get a standard view 1 bedroom this past April 21 to 25 at the 7 month mark in September.

All points usage is based on the dates of stay, not the date of reservation. So with a June use year, a reservation for 4/06, June 05 points would be considered current year (you would not borrow them). You could also borrow June 06, or use banked June 04. You could use any combination of those points to make an 11 month reservation at your home resort in May 05.
 
Just let MS know what you are wanting to do, points-wise. Dean also suggests getting an email sent to you if things are a "little confusing"...actually, I think he requests one everytime. I just get the CM to review my "points status" before I end the call.

Good luck...and, congrats again!!! You SOO deserve it!!!
