Club Intrawest for ALL HGVC members

[floyddl]

Seth, it read to me like the new resort locations would be part of the new point system associated with higher end or at least higher point value resorts. Is that your understanding or will there be new resorts in the current point value range?

Also, It sounded as though these resorts would be online next summer so I am a bit surprised that news of these locations is not already out as development would need to be underway. Or am I misreading that and the sales will begin next summer?

With the announcement of the new sites, will there by any exclusion of people who buy resale?

Are all of these new places going to use more points? If that's the case what is the advantage of having HGVC property over others for trading?

There are nice people at club, they won't bite (usually).

I will release information about the new resorts once I am able to.

Impact of New Resorts/Point structure to resale owners

Seth,

Any thoughts on potential impacts to resale HGVC owners based upon the new resorts and point structures?

Thanks,

To answer your questions " When can CI members book their resort"

CI members can book 11 months before checkin for all vacations lasting 6 days or more. At 4 months, they can book shorter stays.

If the info on another thread is correct and Elite will be able to book CI at 12 months that is very bad news for CI members.

 

[Bill4728]

One thing to remember, CI and HGVC aggrement is to share the resort in an equal way. So for 50 HGVC members to book at a CI resort about 50 CI members will have to book at a HGVC resort. (they will not have to be the exact dates but approx equal number of bookings) This is why there is little internal exchanging between Disney and CI. Since more CI owners want to stay at Disney then Disney owners want to stay at CI.

Great news. Is it all Club Intrawest resorts or only selective one.

Out of nine Intrawest resorts, only four will be available to HGVC members. Among these four are Whistler, BC, and Sandestin, FL. I dont know the other two. Palm desert,CA could be one of them. Hopefully, exchange will be easy.

P.S. i doubt that. It probably will be another HGVC standard answer: "Nothing Available"!!

Sorry for not responding earlier, I just noticed your question. The new point structure is only for a few select new resorts. Those will be VERY heavily demanded resorts in VERY hard to get locations. These are properties people would be very happy using extra points to get and offer additional amenities. There will be other new properties at the normal point values. I think it will be a benefit, but only time will tell.
