What do you mean by points inventory as opposed to weeks? How would I be able to stay at an RCI resort? Is this possible with Wyndham points?
I am looking into probably purchasing around 154k Wyndham points and would mostly be using them for Sun-Thurs stays.
You wouldn’t have access to “points” inventory that is available to PlusPartners members through RCI Nightly stays. You would have access to full weeks people deposited. Many of the resorts have both inventories. The big difference between the two, is the points inventory, you can book a single night. The weeks inventory you have to book the full week. You can only book a full week.
I believe there was a time you could purchase membership to Plus Partners, but unless you like spending $800 in maintenance fees for a $200 plane ticket, you’re better off renting those points you would use for the airline ticket, and get significantly more return. I recommend renting to friends and family because they are the easiest to deal with.
Even if you could use Plus Partners for plane tickets, you would be wiping out most of your 154,000 points for those airline tickets, and you’d have nothing left to book a room. 154,000 might get you (2) of the Sunday to Thursday vacations you are talking about in a one bedroom. In some places you might not even get one. Before buying anything, consider where you want to go and what you would book with those points. Then determine what the cash value of that same room would be, during the same time you would go. Then compare that cost to the maintenance fees you would be paying. Make sure it’s work the costs before committing to anything.
