Monarch and II ... How do I do it?

[judkinslv]

I own a Monarch Grand Vacation and I absolutely love it.

I know if I've already used my points then I can purchase extra weeks at the resorts with cash. My question is, can I purchase an extra week to put into II or do I have to use my points for that? Do I just purchase any week I want at any resort and then put it into II or does the resort have to do that for me?

Thanks, you can tell I'm a newbie, but lovin' it.

I've only heard of owners using points to book a week in Monarch for II trading.

My understanding is that you can only use cash to purchase nights within 30 days of check in. I don't think you can use a week, you gotten thru cash to deposit it in II.

Do I just purchase any week I want at any resort and then put it into II or does the resort have to do that for me?

Yes, you reserve any week you want and deposit that week in II. I always thought the Riviera Beach was the best trader in II, but recent reports may indicate that a spring week at Palm Canyon may be the best trader in MGV.
