its Christmas in June! After four years we finally have a new directory!!!

Seriously though. It’s about darn time. I’m tired of having to help people connect the dots. I know I’m not the only one. Go to the website, and the link is on the main page that says “Your 2018-2019 directory is here”.

You can also get it at:

http://www.nxtbook.com/nxtbooks/wyndham/plus_membersdirectory1819/

Update:
On July 18th, you can order a physical copy online. The first copy is free, but subsequent copies will incur a fee. They have not said what that fee is yet.

Unless it's just me, when I go to download the PDF version it actually gives me the supplement from 4/20/17 instead of the newest directory. I've emailed their web support, so for the time being expect to only be able to view the online version of the directory.

The online nxtbook version is fine. It's when you try to click the link in the nxtbook version to download it to your desktop (or phone, I've tried both), the downloaded PDF is not the new directory but the supplement from last year.

A couple of things I noticed browsing through

Domestic Partners were added to contract transfers keeping developer status. Wonder how many will try that when your talking $100k plus initial purchase price

Presidential Reserve resale contracts under 1 million points points lose all PR benefits except ARP at home resort.

How very Wyndham of them!
I think I just found my new favorite expression...:)!!

I wonder if "Wyndham" will replace SNAFU as an expression among timeshare owners...:shrug:.

Cheers!

Wow. Those are quite impactful changes. The PR benefits change is a huge take away. Wyndham loves unilaterally removing rights of ownership. It doesn’t seem that should be legal. It’s not ethical.

In reading again it maybe on all PR contracts under 1 million points even a direct purchase lose all PR benefits except ARP at home resort.
You have to have atleast 1 million points to get PR benefits outside of ARP at home resort

Anyone know if we can request a hard copy for a fee or something? I'll give Wyndham a call later this afternoon if nobody knows the answer.

A lot of areas state there may possibly change so it leaves a lot of questions about rental of points plus exiting the trust raised more. At least with the new verbage interpretations may be more confining or exclusive. On domestic others added to spousal. Children etc was in the previous directory .

It seems to be worded similar to those who are grandfathered VIP, but they sell one or more of their developer contracts. They lose VIP status if their qualifying developer purchased contract points drop below the grandfathered amount (Gold - 500k, Silver - 300K). So if a developer purchased PR member for any reason drops belows 1Mn qualifying PR contract points, they lose all but home resort ARP for months 12-14 with respect the remaining PR contracts in their account.

So if you acquire via resale a 1 million point PR contract (say at Bonnet Creek, a 1.28 Mn point PR contract that was recently sold on Ebay), you lose only some of the benefits like Registry Collection, etc.? It seems a bit muddy ... because you'd still own 1 Mn PR points in suite(s) at a PR resort.

It has been $19/booking. I used to could do 4 or 5 the same day for $19 but no longer. I have 5 free with silver VIP.

You can now book Prime reservations >90 days out that are 5 or 6 days (previous was 3,4,7) and with check-in any day of the week - nice bit of flexibility added. Not sure about about ARP reservations - are they still 3,4,7 days on specific resort check-in days?

Huh? I had to re-read that. Not sure if you are talking about the new resort directory (the topic of this thread), reservation transactions, or guest certificates. Reservation transactions cost $19 if you run out. Silver VIP and non-VIP get 1 per 77,000 points you own. I guess if you have 400,000 points you would have five, but not all silver get five. Some silver owners get 6 or 7. Silver owners that has resale contracts along with their retail contracts get more then that. You don’t have a set number because you are Silver VIP. However Silver VIP gets five guests certificates, so maybe you were referring to those?

We've been able to do that since the "Great Website/Rules Change Kurfuffle of April/May 2017".

Thanks, I saw the removal of check-in date requirements but not the removal of the 3,4,7 night reservation requirement in the 2017 supplement.

With the new directory coming out
I don’t see any changes in the rules coming for quite awhile.
It’s been a year since the new rules and Voyager were implemented.
I would say that was Wyndhams probation period for both.

I thought that prior to May of last year when the big changes took effect you could make multiple reservations in one day for only one Reservation Transaction, but the fee at that time was $39.

Interesting note in the new directory is there are 500,000 members and updates Bragg about over one million but I did note that Presidential Reserve are for ones who bought from Wyndham developer. On the question of $19 vs $39 for transaction cost one $19 was online the other$39 was by phone.
