Riviera March 3rd Incentives????

[Frugal Fairy Tales]

Anyone think we'll see improved Riviera incentives on March 3rd when GF2 goes on sale???

Generally, the incentives don’t get better. Depending on how many points you’re looking for, it’s always possible that a new promotion has offered you personally a better deal.

I don’t think VGF changes that.

Riviera had a pretty good promotion late last year (about $163pp for 300 points). I doubt they will offer another so soon.

I think we will see the same incentives for both resorts.

I think they will likely be better than current incentive with a good chunk of the incentive dropping off after 3-4 weeks. The current incentives started when the price was still $201.

I’d expect riv incentives to be slightly less appealing than gfv so sales drive to gfv

That would be an interesting move but could see it as the next month is members only.

And, we know that a lot of current owners here have not added on at RIV so I could see an extra bump just for us!

I’ll take whatever they want to offer!!!

I was thinking gfv better incentives just for March too and then something similar to riv when gfv goes on sale to the plebes

To be clear, I think we will see better incentives for Riviera than Grand Floridian. I can’t imagine why they would put better incentives up for Grand Floridian when Riviera can’t possibly be meeting expectations, while Grand Floridian was (I’m pretty sure) the fastest selling resort in terms of points per month they’ve ever had. It wouldn’t surprise me if the VGF incentives were in the range of $10 for 200 points, and for existing owners only. I think Riviera will probably be similar to the dollars off they offered late fall.

If VGF2 is high, I’ll take a look at RIV if they want to discount it.

$155 for 300 points is where I bought in and did it without seeing the resort in person (well other than riding the skyliner by it in early December 2019). We took a leap because we like the Epcot area and wanted something longer than BWV (which we had multiple contracts on and sold a couple to start the pandemic).
