Can't find the other thread, just thought I'd relate this info
MS called to let me know that an additional day became available while I was out; left message to call back within close of business next day. It was within 30 days, i had given up & made other arrangements, so i declined.
Got to talking w/customer service who confirmed "off the record" that the new policy was primarily intended to cut down on professional renter abuse. Evidently, it was common practice for owners to book prime weeks @ 11 months @ home resort, then waitlist for ALL the other resorts during peak times and book them ALL as they became available.
You can still waitlist for all the resorts - just must take the 1st that becomes available. Told this is to even the playing field and allow a better chance for people hoping to complete a ressie (waiting for a day or 2?) success.
No effect on booking a ressie @ 11 month mark, then booking a 2nd @ 7 month on a day-by-day basis (as long as points are available in your account) with intent to cancel the 1st res once the 2nd is secured.
