When is the best time of day to check RCI availability?

Thanks for the reminder to search RCI when I wake up early as I did today. About 4am EST time I spotted a 7000 point 2br Galleon, Key West. Instead of taking it, I took a 1br Jupiter Club week for 6/20, also 7000 points. After booking the Jupiter week, I looked to see if the Galleon was still there and it was gone. I know that the Galleon was a superior find, but we are beach walkers and the Jupiter was a shorter drive. Hope a tugger got the Galleon. I would have posted on sightings board if it had not been taken.

It's more like a 14-21 day window. Right now I'm looking for a 6/20 check-in and expect that to start popping up this weekend. Right now I'm seeing check-ins for 6/13 weekend and nothing past that.

This is somewhat true, but it depends on where you are searching. Seems like Hawaii books very late.

So is 3:00 AM ET still the point at which new inventory gets into RCI?

Timing

Just a reference point.
Looking at about 6:30 am
Noticed 3 hawaii GC and 2 Disney resorts for August 2014
Within 1/2 hour they were gone!
Not sure what might have been there an hour earlier

This is a five year old thread.

In the intervening years, RCI has switched to a continuous-management model. Inventory comes and goes at all times of the day and night. There is no longer a "witching hour."
