We are planning a trip to Disneyworld for April, which is value time for Bonnet Creek. When i looked at availability on-line it appears I could only book 7 night stays.

Is there a 7 night restriction? I am hoping only for on-line bookings as I know in the past when phoning a reservation we had more options.

When doing a resort search i saw a few new Worldmarks - Red River in New Mexico for example. I still did not see the St. George property listed as a Wyndham resort. I am wondering if eventually all the WM resorts will be available for FS+ members. We are thinking of getting a WM timeshare but maybe will will hold off on this.

I have never even checked to see if Wyndham has an bonus time options. One reason why WM seems appealing is there are a couple of resorts we could drive to where we could take advantage of bonus time.

Update: WM is still looking pretty good to me. The Red River is an affiliate so WM owners would have priority. FF really does not have a bonus time type option so this is another reason why WM is appealing to me. I could go more than 7 nights out but I was told it would be another reservation and a new set of housekeeping credits would be needed. I could have to change rooms. We were thinking of starting midweek to save airfare but even if I booked just seven nights it is considered two reservations. I can see we really have to be smart on how to book because there are a lot of little financial dings and those dings can add up. I will pay a little more in airfare going from Friday to Friday but the cost is still less then the extra housekeeping credits.

You can make 2 seperate reservations on-line. As long as it happens in 1 day, it will be one transaction

No, unless you want to take those $99 offer in exchange of sit in TS presentation. And since VIP can get discount as the travel day approaching, I don't believe a bonus time program can work. Unless they want to totally knock out VIP.
