Point Totals for 2006???

[Disney Doll]

Is there anywhere where I can find the point totals for 2006? The point calculator here has calculations based on the 2005 points. Are the 2006 point values out yet??

Do you mean for DVC resorts?

 

[Disney Doll]

Yes...the WDW DVC resorts.

Your latest vacation planner has both 2005 and 2006 in it. If you are without it, I can look up something specific for you.

My latest vacation planner??? Is it a book or online at the DVC website. I have looked through all my DVC stuff, and I only have up until 2005.

I am very confused. I will PM you...thanks!!!!

The latest Vacation Planner is dated 2005-2006 and has the points for both years for all DVC resorts in it. Maybe you didn't get that mailing. It came out last fall, I believe.

The book you are looking for has a blue background and a picture of Goofy with a DVC family of four.

Can't you get the same information on the DVC member website?

Look up any post by Caskbill and click on the link in his signature line. That will take you to the download for his free DVC planner software. The software has all the point charts to 2054 incorporated into it, and it's a great tool!

Just use the 2005 points chart. If you aren't going in March, April or November, you don't even have to do any adjustmentsto it.

If you are going in March or April, you need to figure out when Easter occurs. The week before and the week after Easter are always Premier season. The rest of March and April will be Magic season.

If you are going in November, the day before Thanksgiving, Thanksgiving Day and the day after Thanksgiving always fall in Magic season. Rest of November is Choice season.


Best wishes -

This is worthwhile advice for anyone, and I heartily endorse Jim's suggestion. In fact, I'll make it even easier by posting Bill's website link: http://web.nalu.net/~wneth/dvcplanner.htm

Not only will it provide you with point charts, it will calculate the dates you would call at 11 months, 7 months and even day-by-day reservations.

Have I mentioned yet that it's awesome...and FREE? What can I say...I have to plug it and thank Bill any time the subject somes up!

Thanks Granny - for some reason, I couldn't find that darn link!

I love Caskbill's planner and use it all the time, but if you ever just need to quickly check point costs on the internet I have a calculator that I keep up to date with the latest point charts. (currently through 2006). It also allows you to see the DVC resorts of your choice side by side for easy comparison.

You can find it here: DVC Points Calculator

HTH

ETA: I also have the point charts through 2006 as well.
