Can't seem to find an answer to my particular scenario. Lets say I have 100 points at BLT June UY and 120 points at BLT December UY. Is there any way I can transfer points from the June UY account to the Dec UY account and still use the 11 month window from the Dec UY to say book a Nov trip the following year?

I guess the transfered June points would have expired at the end of May unless banked right.

If I transfer the points into Dec UY and then bank them

June 2010 transfered to Dec UY account then banked
Banked points now available for booking 6/1/11-5/31/12
But I still cannot utilize the 11 month window for the Dec UY since they are not available for booking until 6/1/11

Any way through this?
 
Use year has nothing to do with the 11 month booking window. You can always book 11 months out at your home resort (using home resort points) regardless or your use year (or years).
 
Right right!! I'm forgetting that as long as you have the points in the account you can book, regardless if they are not available for use yet, as long as they are available for the booking dates. Thanx!!!

They are always available for use based on the date of stay. You should have points in your account for the current use year and the 3 following. All can be used based on the use year of your requested date of stay.

Dec '10 UY covers stays 12/1/10 - 11/30/11
(and banked Dec '09 and borrowed Dec '11 points would be available for stays during these dates too)

Dec '11 UY covers stays 12/1/11 - 11/30/12
(& banked Dec '10 and borrowed Dec '12 points would be available for stays during these dates too)

Transferred June '10 UY points banked to 2011 UY would be available for stays
6/1/11 - 5/31/12
