There have been a number of threads asking various questions about dates concerning AKV. I thought a recap here might be useful. This is the information I have which should be accurate. However please note that DVC has been changing dates a lot, so keep this in mind.
As of 2/7/07.
...Only current DVC members may purchase AKV points. Purchases will be for AKV Phase I and will include 2007 UY points
...Purchase price is $101/point
...Purchase 100 point minimum, and can select incentive of either $8.00/point, or matching number of developer points. If selecting developer points, those points must be used within 7-months, cannot be banked, and will expire if not used.
...Purchase 150 point minimum and member is considered 'Founding Member' for AKV. Name will be put on tapestry which will hang in lobby of both phase I resort, and another in lobby of phase II resort which will open in 2009.
Applicable Dates:
Feb 28th:
...Last day to purchase and become a Founding Member. (150 point minimum purchase). Note: This date may have been extended until March 5th (extension not substantiated)
March 5th: (Note: Edited. In another post by Scotch on 2/9/07, he reports his guide told him the March 5th date for the price increase and $8.00 incentive was moved back to June 4th. No word on developer points, general public sales, or what UY will apply.)
...Price increases from $101/point to $104/point.
...$8.00 incentive ends (no word on if a new incentive will start)
...Developer point incentive ends
...Sales open to general public. Do not need to be a current DVC member to purchase AKV
...Points sold will be for AKV phase II. This means buyers will get 2008 UY points. They will not get 2007 UY points.
May 16th:
...AKV owners may begin booking reservations using their AKV points. Those reservations may be for any DVC resort but only for dates of Sep 1st and later. An AKV owner for example cannot use AKV points to book BWV, for example, for an August 2007 stay, even though it would be within the 7-month booking window.
Edit: June 4th
...See note above for Mar 5th.
June 6th:
...DVC owners who do not have AKV as a home resort, may begin booking AKV using their regular Home Resort points.
September 1st:
...AKV Phase I opens.
...Those who have AKV Phase I points (2007 UY), maintenance fees begin. (There are no maintenance fees for the timeframe between time of purchase and Sep 1st)
Just FYI. Hope this helps.
