Postcard question- please help

[tiffsix]

I just received my first postcard in the mail today and almost had a heart attack. We are staying at the Poly Sept 19-26 and already used the Visa deal for it. This postcard will not help us right? Or does anyone know something different? 2nd-we are staying at POR the night before booked through Triple A. Will the postcard help this first night at least? ANd if so, are there any rates for deluxes with the postcard? It's a shame because i would love to use this postcard for a longer trip but don't have the time off or the money to go again. Such a shame. Thanks for the help in advance.

On the postcard I recieved it doesn't say anything about the deluxe resorts so just be happy with the visa deal you recieved for the poly i am sure it is a great deal. You will have such a great time especially because you are going with such fun people.:

I don't know if you got the same postcard that we did but on the bottom it said "special rates available at select Deluxe resorts".
We are staying at AKL for 2 nights and then on to the YC for 5. We saved over $400. We already had the AAA rate. Call them and ask them. It can't hurt!!!!!!
I really didn't think we would be able to use ours since it was in my father's name(he lives with us) and it wasn't for our dates. ( for all around our dates) I called and we got it!!!!!

I got the postcard in the mail today also. I was booked at POFQ at rack rate standard view, but then took CBR waterview for a savings of over $300. It would have saved over $400 if I took a standard view.

I did ask about rates at the Polynesian. It worked out to be 233 per night for a garden view.

Call and work out the numbers. You never know. If you can save a few bucks, why not? I'm just glad we got a discounted room. We are going the first week in December and many of the reosrts didn't have availability for the week at a discount.

If you get a postcard for something other than what you want to book (like a value when you want a deluxe) just call in and tell them you got the card and they will let you get another category provided there is availability. I should know, I did that this year. I had booked using the AP rate for BWI and then I got a postcard for value resorts. I called CRO and told them that I would like to use the rate if it were available for BWI, which it was and they switched me from the AP rate to the "direct mail" rate as they called it. They didn't even care that now I wouldn't be purchasing an AP. As long as you have the pin number, they will allow this, so don't throw away a postcard just because it is not for the resort category you wanted--just call CRO.
