Thanks for the info Andy. This is exactly what I suspected would happen. The deposited week for week's owners sound good, but my guess is that it will be the same bonus vacation week that I was offered this year. That means that in addition my maintenance fees I'll have to buy a bonus week, if I want use my ownership week either this year or next. Furthermore, the bonus week that I was offered this year had so many restrictions on it that it was not useable by me. As far as I'm concerned, this amounts to no benefit at all. Fairfield is absolutely ripping off the Santa Barbara owners. In essence, we've subsidized the repair of the other resorts in the area, because Fairfield has forced us to wait until the other resorts are repaired to begin work on Santa Barbara.
