What time do the computers online accept a points reservation?

I will be out of the country when I need to log-in and am trying to figure out what time to try to book a points reservation. Do things change at midnight EDT or at 9 a.m. EDT?

I know when I call in reservations open at 9 a.m. EDT.
 
Assuming you mean club points in Abound, then it is 9am EST, but the day depends on which window you are aiming at and whether it is MVC , Sheraton or Westin. There is a "When can I reserve" tool under resources in your account, double check that, but below is an example based on 22 June 2026 check-in

I personally found it was a bit before 9- I think I logged on around 8:30 to be sure I remembered what to do and found the dates were already available. This was for Maui on the date indicated by “when can I reserve”.
 
Officially it’s 9am, but as @Pamplemousse noted, often the system loads the inventory early, sometimes much earlier.

I've seen inventory come on as early as 2 days before and as late as a day late, esp at the 12 month window. IMO it's unusual for inventory to show up exactly at 9 am for points. Weeks on the other hand seems to be exactly 9 AM Eastern.

My same experience.
