Giving a week away in Hawaii [how to find exchange]

SFX has Maui one bedroom for that week and also the week afterward. I'm not sure they will still be there when you actually have your membership to trade, but wanted to let you know. They do not charge a membership fee.

That's not exactly true. You can get great deals traveling to Hawaii the first 2 weeks of December. As of today you are still 10 months out. Hopefully your timeshare is finalized soon. If you put in a request with RCI for any Hawaiian island I believe you would get an exchange.

Correction: In the past, you could get great airfare to Hawaii the first 2 weeks of December. Prices have been terrible these past many months. But if they can come up with the airfare you should be able to get them an exchange. Also, are they flexible. Do they have to go on their honeymoon right after the wedding? Otherwise they can go whenever an exchange come through.

Thanks for your reply. They are not too flexible. I just found out that they prefer to leave during winter break...my brother is getting his PhD and is also a teacher...makes it harder for me bc it's peak season.

Thanks, just joined SFX!
 
You can also sign up for platinum interchange and DAE without a membership fee.

Platinum Interchange have a 3 for 1 special on right now but it ends tomorrow.
 
OP, if your week is woodstone or summit, they are exchanged only through RCI.
I am not sure if your 2BR unit can get enough TPUs for Hawaii exchange.
Maybe you need to try private exchange on TUG marketplace, you have nothing to lose.
To make it more attractive, you should exchange whole 4 bedroom unit instead of lock off and use 2BR.
I don't think you can get a winter break week in Hawaii, but there can be last minute cancellation.
