Does anyone know how to access the platinum weeks availability in the new and improved rci web site?
 
I am wondering the same thing. I am a weeks owner. Every post I am reading says to click on the priority access tab on left side in "search for vacation". There is no such tab. Must be points members who are posting.
 
I have RCIPoints and this is what it states:

"To find out what's currently available through Priority Access, please visit the Search for an Exchange Vacation tab and select the "Priority Access" search dimension on the left of the map."

To the left of the map is the temperature.

I have to assume it will display "Priority Access" if available. It would be nice to search for "Priority Access" resorts without looking at all 2500.
 
If you want to see what a platinum priority access looks like, select/goto Chicago. You should see two resorts, the second one in "List View" mode is a Hyatt Regency. Righ below "Available Units" you'll see a big "P". If you put your cursor on the "P", it will display "RCI Platinum Priority Access"

Looks like the notation about being left of the map is totally wrong. This will make it easier though to spot a platinum access.

I think that the Platinum Access will only be at Hotels such as the Hyatt Hotel, not at any TS's.

As a non-Platinum RCI weeks members, is there anyway for me to see the "Priority Access" weeks available only to RCI Platinum members?

Example - I can see the Chicago Hyatt listed in the RCI "Resort Information" section but is does not show any units available.

I am considering RCI Plat for some of the other perks and would like to be able to asses the "Priority" weeks. As usual, RCI doesn't make anything easy!!
 
It looks like they removed the Priority Access Tab which used to be on the bottom left side of the page. It doesn't seem that it's been relocated to a different section. :shrug:
 
Priority Access

I'm a weeks Platinum member, and it looks like the tab is missing. I use to have to select new search, click USA, and then Priorty access tab would be in the bottom left corner. Not there now??

I did an advanced search and used the key word Hyatt. Then I saved that search.

Here is what is available now for Platinum members.
