OK, heres a few thoughts that I think would make things much easier and cheaper in the long run for everyone. Remember that some of the issues would be for Disneys advantage, not necessarily what the members would prefer. I know that many of them would not be popular with certain members but keep in mind that wed be starting from scratch so it wouldnt be an issue of taking the benefits away now.
Im sure Ill add to this list but this is a start. IMO, these issues would reduce fees by at least 25% overall even taking into account the extra fees mentioned above. I'm not saying these are what I want to happen, only that I think DVC would have been better off overall had they done so.
- Limit points package sizes to match the points per week.
- Make a full week slightly less points that the sum of the individual points per day.
- Give a one month priority to those reserving a full week for both the 11 month and 7 month times.
- Require a minimum stay of 3 days.
- Impose fees for banking, borrowing, cancellations or changes, multiple reservations in one use year
- Allow someone to book a full week at the 11 month window on day one.
- Give home resort owners top choice in unit assignments no matter when they arrive or reserved.
- Adjust BW view points up and pool/garden view points down and possibly evening them out with the standard view.
- Eliminate Pool Hopping.
