I was somewhat used to the old Wyndham website.
I think I could make online reservations from 7AM to 11PM, EST
Is the new website the same, or is it now 24 hours? So I have to make difficult reservations at midnight when the are at the 60 day point?

It is now 24/7

So in theory, the 60 day window opens at midnight ET, instead of the previous 7 am ET.

In practice, I've seen the window for Instant upgrade to not start until after the batch job the the upgrade request processing has happened. When I did it I waited 90 mins into the day before the Instant upgrade was even offered, and in my case many of the offered upgraded where ghosts (units that appear in the search list, but have already been picked up by another reservation and when selected it then tells you it is NOT available) .

Gee! Folks that live in Hawaii have it pretty good! They can start booking right after supper!
