Anyone else notice new Acs? This one expires Oct 29. I still have the most recent one which expires end of May and will go unused. Hopefully this new Freebie (in both my personal and Vistana accounts) is a little better than the previous one which was generally terrible.
 
We gone them too, in our Marriott and Vistana account. I would count on them being much better than generally terrible. We do find a use for them now and then. Mainly in Orlando or Palm Desert.
 
MGR, MGV and MHZ are there for end Aug and Sept
 
It looks like Orlando is the only area available in the USA for August and September.
 
Darn, I am planning to go in October....
 
? If I use the certificate in II to book at Sheraton Vistabs and I own there do I pay the II fee or do I call Sheraton and pay them? Never used one before so any help would be appreciated

You pay the fee to redeem the certificate to II. It looks like it is $399+tax regardless of the unit size. You don't pay anything to the resort unless you purchase food, beverage or anything else that you charge to your room folio.
 
Thanks đź‘Ť
 
I received an AC in my corporate Marriott account but not in my personal account. The personal account is not platinum. If you received in your personal account were you platinum or no?
 
Welp, we just used one of the ACs we got. MGV in Sept! Good to see a few 1BR units out there. We were tempted by Vistana Villages, but they only had small 1BR with LK. We don't mind those units but much prefer the full kitchen.

My personal account is not platinum.

Maybe that’s why I got one

My personal account is just regular. Maybe I’ve booked enough ACs to make them want to give them to me. Palm desert and Cabo are usually my go to.
 
We book too many getaways 🤣 that’s probably why

Do you ever book Getaways?

That account is new so in the past I've booked plenty in my corporate account. If I was booking today I'd use my corp since it's platinum. Wondering if I had to upgrade to get the benefit but it seems it's more idiosyncratic
 
Another waste of an AC. I have all of our trips planned through October. I tried to find something that would be good for a driving trip. Not much that we would really enjoy. I keep watching for a regular exchange into Breck. Marriott would be nice for an AC option. Only the Grand Peak and Grand Timber were there. I would take one, if the dates worked. I don't mind a studio. I will keep watching. Rick is working on the gazebo and gets upset that he has to leave the yard to go on vacation. Yes, this is real.
 
FWIW, I got one and I'm just a base member with two weeks attached to my account but not deposited. One Hawaii, one Austria. Nothing special.

I rather enjoy the AC weeks. Have used them for St. Maarten, Puerto Vallarta & Greece. They have Mallorca availability starting tomorrow, and I was checking mileage tickets for tonight from Boston when my wife decided to become the voice of reason :)

Did you see language at Breck Grand vacations indicating a 1inX rule?
