My wife and I currently own at SSR and are thinking about a 100-point AKV add-on, but have a couple of questions.

We currently have a reservation for early January 2009 using 162 of our SSR 2008 UY points. If we do the AKV add-on under the current promotion, we will get 100 SSR developer points. So now the questions:

1) Can we cancel/rebook our Jan 09 reservation to use a combination of 100 developer points and 62 "regular" SSR points?

2) Can we then bank the 100 "regular" SSR points that the developer points replaced into our 2009 UY, assuming we haven't passed any applicable deadlines?

Thanks for your help!

Maybe. If there are waitlists for any of your dates, MS may refuse your request. I say may because MS is reportedly inconsistent on these type of requests. This is something you may want to talk to your sales guide about as a condition of the add on - perhaps he/she can make it happen for you without any hassles.

If there is still availability for the exact same thing, MS can just cancel the original reservation and then rebook using a combination of SSR points and developer points. AFAIK, this "new" reservation would be "manual" / handled by a special group. It may take a while to get the confirmation number and letter.


2) Can we then bank the 100 "regular" SSR points that the developer points replaced into our 2009 UY, assuming we haven't passed any applicable deadlines?

Yes, as long as you are within your banking deadline, you could bank the 2008 use year points that were returned to your account after the developer points were used.
