Barry, I think this subject (Marriott Vacations Worldwide Points) deserves its own thread here - what do you think? The implications go beyond those for owners of weeks at Phuket beach Club and Asia Pacific Club points members to the wider community of Destinations Club Points Owners and Enrolled Weeks owners.

If it ever happens then I'm in complete agreement, it will deserve its own thread. It will be important enough for its own sticky thread!

But it's only a rumor that's been floated for years now, since the inception of the DC, started by reps who've been asked when/if the Euro and A-P resorts will be integrated with the DC. None of these reps, whether corporate or sales staff, have been willing to officially put their names to the statements. Plus there are various versions of the rumor and this latest "one worldwide program" sounds, to me, less promising than any of the previous versions. Think of how many local/state/federal/international laws, regulations and mandates would have to be combined and approved in order to implement this singular product!

So unless/until there are official reports of the A-P and/or Euro resorts being more fully integrated with the DC, any rumors about it happening can fall on TUG wherever they're mentioned as a tangent. I hope that's understandable.

Whilst we are here at PBC, several other friends will be attending "update" sessions, so it will be interesting to hear whether there is a consistent story.
Once I know, I will be contacting Rance as well as Customer Advocacy endeavouring to seek a more formal update statement.
Again no great expectations, but one can only ask!
