Hello

I apologize, but I'm sure this has been answered many times before, but I can't find it for some reason. Due to personal life situations, I haven't tried to competitively book anything through WorldMark since they've switched to this abomination of a website. In the olden days, I'd save a search, log in at 6am PST 13 months in advance, find my search, and then book it.

It appears that this new website never goes offline. Is that correct?
It sounds like you still need to book 13 months in advance. Do the new bookings still open at 6am PST? According to ChatGPT it's actually at 12:01 am now and mentions needing to be a Platinum member (I have no idea what level I am - or even that there were levels).
Is there a way to save searches now? If not, what's the fastest way to navigate to a property that you're trying to book? Just go onto the website > Resorts > Select Resort > Select Suite Type > Choose Dates and then wait until either 12:01am or 6:00am?

Thank you and sorry for my ignorance!
 
Everyone now has access at 12:01 am Pacific time.
 
Awesome. Thank you for the response. Any special tips or just have it queued up and hope you get lucky on the click?

Thanks again!
