Hello,
I have 39K point in RCI set to expire (Wyndham points transferred to RCI). I see an option to extend usage if I pay $99; however, I also see that there are some vacations available for 35k points/studio in a the quiet season.

**How do I find these vacation options 35k point/studio/quiet? or do I let go to waste.

Thanks

Click to expand...

I pay about $625-700MF for PRIME weeks generating that many RCI Points.

But I have a feeling these are Wyndham points deposited into RCI? Right?

That is about $210-230 in Wyndham MFs for that many points ... and you want to throw ANOTHER $99 into the cost pile...

NO WAY ... as most likely without a (serious) plan, next year at this time, YOU still would not have used them for a vacation.

Thanks. I have had them all year. I just haven't found the value of RCI outside if I would ever use them for "last minute deals". So far I have enjoyed just using them within Wyndham.

I had to deposit these points when I purchased a contract and it was to late to place in the credit pool. I saw you could book 1 week during quiet period for $35K but I haven't seen a way to search by point or I haven't seen anything in the range to even consider to use the point with. So it looks like they will go unused.

Thanks for the advise!
