So, we have APs, points, and free airline vouchers burning a hole in our pocket. Our APs expire in October, so we started to toy with squeezing in ONE more trip. Here is the dilemma . . .
* Our first baby is due in September, so a fall getaway is out of the question.
* I don't want to travel too close to my due date or be in the heat and humidity of July/August at 7-8 months.
* I teach, so I am limited to spring break, Easter break, or after classes are out in May.
* We have family weddings in May and July this year.
We logged in to the website and started playing with dates. It was so convenient to check availability for March, April, May, and June without wasting the MS CM's time. We seriously checked studios at every resort for all the different variations. We found 5 consecutive days at the end of May starting on our anniversary! We are taking that "one last trip" by ourselves before we become parents.
We are so grateful that online booking was an option. It couldn't have been simpler to use the current points, borrow a few from next year, and complete the transaction. Again, it was so much better than having to ask a CM to check this date, please check this date, etc. I'm sure it saved some money as well.
