Re: Marriott Going to Point Syst (by Ric K.):
KathyW , sorry havent been getting alerts about this forum, havent been on. Answering your question, it is still my understanding that if you are only a points owner, you can only reserve inventory that is part of that system. So, lets say at Grand Ocean, Marriott would have to repurchase, repossess, or otherwise again own some of that inventory to place it in the "trust" system. I do not believe that if my deeded inventory is "converted" to points for any given year it is available to anyone but another "deeded owner" that joined the points program (enrolled). I do believe that if you are a "both" owner, deeded and purchase points, you have additional options but the way points are reserved at a deeded resort may be "split" between two different kinds of inventory. Someone on this post experienced that not long ago. I think that showed up somewhere between pages 15 and 18......
