Hi all -
We are still using our timeshare under the old Marriott's weeks system. I have a trade request in through II using our Platinum week at Grande Vista, trying to get a summer week at Ocean Watch. I put in the trade a year in advance (June 2018) and haven't heard anything yet. I'm wondering if with the newer Marriott points system and internal trade, if trading through II is going to be more difficult to get what you want? Also wondering if this is a hard trade. I have the entire summer as a request. At what point do you decide that it's getting too close and start looking at other locations/hotels? Little nervous to go outside of Marriott. And also thinking that if trading through II is getting harder, if its worth keeping our TS. Not really psyched to go to a points system.
