We were told at a presentation we could do a Disney cruise? I don’t see them? Can you do it through interval

Disney Cruise Lines does look like a line you can select when searching for cruises through Interval Travel. I am not sure where you are looking, but they are there. Realize that Interval Travel is just another travel agent. They aren't any different than sites like Cruise.com or even booking directly through the cruise line. I am not sure they offer any special perks that would make me select them vs some other travel website out there to book a cruise.

Trading one vacation currency into another is almost always a bad to mediocre proposition. Whether it is miles to hotel points, hotel points to miles, or timeshares to hotel points, organized trips or cruises. Periodic deals (X% bonus on transfers from one place to another) or personal needs may sometimes change to calculation.

In the case of timeshares, the maintenance fees on the points (or rental value of the underlying weeks) is likely to highly exceed the value you are getting for the cruise. So even if you can do it, in most cases it doesn’t mean you should.

Those who have weeks enrolled in Abound, can also convert their timeshares to Bonvoy points. Aside from a once in the century pandemic, when all other options might be exhausted, it’s hard to think of an example where that’s a good trade.

I went to cruise under the use pts section on the marriott vacation club page. I have as asking if maybe they were talking about interval. They seem to leave that part out

I tried to do a cruise exchange search for Disney Cruise Lines using Abound Club points on the Interval International website and it is only showing cash prices, so DCL may not be available for points exchange but just cash bookings.
