I have not had time to fully analyze/process this, but I have two quick takeaways.
1) After a long stretch of continually updating week (fixed, 7-day) exchange fees they are giving it a rest. (I believe they have have raised them as much as the market will tollerate for them.)
2) Finally some common sense and they are offering point insurance at a lower fee for shorter trips (previously, all trips were charged the same.)
Again, I have not fully processed this, but a quick scan did not trigger the pain points I thought it might. I look forward to what others find when they examine this more closely.

Usually on an annual basis, you will also pay a maintenance fee, which is used toward the operation and upkeep of the resort at which you own. This is not a fee which is collected by RCI - you pay your resort directly.
