Newbie question about points!

[Mt2008]

Hi all!

I have 100 points I have to use by Sept 30 this year. I booked a SSR stay but would like to try for BRV. There’s 2 nights available for the 4 nights I would like to book.

I used 90 points for SSR and have 10 left. Do I book the 2 nights, borrowing from next UY and waitlist the other 2 nights (and set it to cancel SSR if it comes through)? Or keep as is and stalk? (My contract is 50 points, but resale and came with an extra 50.)

I just want to make sure I don’t screw it all up! TIA!

This is why you should have booked at 2 x 2 nights. Then you could just modify the other two for BR. As is, you have to cancel and rebook and hope you didn't miss out on one or the other.

A four day waitlist is a tough one, but a 2 day isn't as bad.

If there are still SSR rooms for the nights you see BRV, then you could just modify, drop the ones you have, and then book the other two and waitlist...but that means a split stay.

If you don't want that, but want to try with borrowing, its risky because once you get to 31 days out, you can't keep trying or you'll end up with holding points....
