I have noticed that there are no longer any Marriott or Vistana Orlando getaways after August. We were looking at one a while back in September and it is now gone. All the other inventory out there after August is gone. I doubt it was all booked up. Similar things have happened in the past when inventory vanished only to show up again. Wonder if they are pulling or withholding it in anticipation of something?
Interesting observation. Maybe they are pulling all of their inventory for that third overlay program. The suspense is killing me. Who’s speculation will be right? Lol

I can see non-Orlando Vistana getaways after August. So why just Orlando? Maybe they are holding the units for MVC corporate events? To train sales people about the new program? Unless they start to pull all other Vistana and Marriott getaways, it does not appear to be related to saving the inventory for the new program.

It’s probably just another II system glitch.

That is what I am thinking. It seems to happen every year. A few years ago there were tons of fall getaways excep the entire month of October. October certainly isn't high time in Orlando, but they couldn't explain why Orlando was not available in Marriott getaways for all of October.

I hope it’s just a glitch!
