Hi, Tuggers:
If I have a replacement week for the booking window of 59 days (or 30 days), does the replacement week has less trading power when searching on line by myself than using a prime week doing the same thing at flex time?
 
Yes but it won't usually be noticeable. There is still a trading power filter during what is termed "flex" because we have observed some units still requiring a certain trade power. That said it is extremely wide so the likelihood of finding something not showing up with the replacement week is remote.

EDIT: My answer is based on II.

Yes. But the key is the trade power needed to trade into all weeks during the Flex period. Supposedly, that trade power needed to exchange into (almost) all weeks is substantially reduced during Flex, such that almost any week (including almost all replacement weeks) can trade into them, with some exceptions (e.g. Four Seasons Aviara).
 
Thank you very much for the info. Tuggers are so helpful!!!
