First time trading ... need advice

We currently have the last week of July 2009 reserved at Oceanwatch and have a pending (request first) exchange with II to trade into Grande Ocean. In the last couple weeks, my husband had the idea that we should maybe try to trade into Ocean Point instead of MGO for the same timeframe (June/July) and possibly try to get an AC by depositing first. This makes me nervous because I don't know how difficult it is to get into Ocean Point in June/July. Then he would like to use the AC to go to Orlando the first week of April. I know that's a peak time there, so I also don't know how feasible that is. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!

Orlando is one of the few places that are not too restrictive when it comes to using AC's. April in Orlando was open on my last two AC grids. Here is a fellow Tuggers grid for viewing.

You should have no problem getting a trade into OP and using your AC for Orlando.

You would need to get your trade request in ASAP as many owners have already deposited. You will be hoping for a late depositor at OP.
