There were owner surveys from the website that covered this category - you just didn't see them because you weren't in the luck of the draw for the randomized surveys for this item.
It's a very simple fix, but......... we all know what happens after updates. It's better to leave well enough alone than to chance not being able to log in. My pet peeve is ghost inventory. I wonder how many canceled reservations to rebook and find out the hard way.
Oh the ghosts are just AWFUL. I try and comment regularly (give feedback on the website) FWIW. I don't trust the discounts at all. As you pointed out, they show up long after they've expired. I've also often found discounts that weren't advertised (and thus I typically search using resale first - as that will show me if there is a discount) - then I can choose whether to book with the resale/resort discount versus my VIP discount. Now, if you wanted to check and see what discounts were available to decide where you might go, I punt on that.
I’ve had that show up for a while now. I think they are just telling you that the reservation is during priority time, so you don’t have to look it up or guess.
Fairly new - the Timeshare Owner Priority indication is on all reservations booked during owner priority (regardless of if you use one or not).
Correct - it's letting you know that this reservation is occurring within a blackout period - so if you plan to send someone other than an owner - it's going to use a GA (vs a GC).
