Taking a repositioning cruise from Florida to to Rome in April 24 and am curious about people's experience with one way air fares back from Europe. Also have they ever exchanged with RCI or II for anything decent in the greater Rome area? Has anyone ever done a shorter notice RCI last call or an II getaway for the Rome area or an RCI under 10000 point for anything in the area? Trying to manage my expectations on what I might be able to accomplish on my own and what a travel agent would be able to do. Any information would be appreciated. Thanks.

We are looking to do something similar next year. I have questions too, but don't want to highjack your thread, so will start a different one.
You might checkout TAP airlines for flights.
I looked in RCI and found a few that are 9000 points, however, they are in Mar 2023. Nothing for April yet.

Right now it looks like we'll do an ongoing search in conjunction with a refundable air bnb, probably off vrbo, based on other people's posts. If we find one, cancel, if not, air bnb it.

Sounds like a good plan.
