Points "Last Minute" Deals

I am seeing a Hyatt that is within 45 days but it is showing at full points not discounted points. Not sure why? Could it be that is a Hyatt?
 
No Points Discount For Points Timeshares.

Do Hyatts trade via RCI Points ?

If so, they won't show up on the list of what's available within 45 days via Instant Exchange.

For timeshares that exchange within the points system -- i.e., straight-points exchange reservations -- there's no discount. Reserve today for check-in tomorrow & it still takes the full points-value of the week you're reserving.

Why ?

There's no reason for it. It's just RCI policy.

Hyatt hotels started showing up in RCI weeks earlier this year. It is not a Hyatt Timeshare but rather a Hyatt Hotel. And it is in RCI weeks NOT RCI Points.
 
Additional Guesswork.

I would expect that the Instant Exchange deals are just for timeshares.

If in doubt, call up RCI & see what they say.

It is listed as an exchange not just an extra vacation.

I know call RCI. I will they just already annoyed me once today and that is enough.
