RCI Points questions..please help!

Hi, I am not yet an RCI points owner but was looking into purchasing rci points. Before I do I had a few questions and was hoping someone out there could please help. First, if I use rci points, what is the availability of last call vacations to colorado, florida, and cancun if any. Also I had heard that you can use points for airfare and was trying to find out about how many points a roundtrip ticket to say florida from oklahoma would be or at least a ballpark guess. My last question is on the tug database I only see a few resorts as listed under points ratings but notice that many of the other resorts are rci resorts(maybe these are weeks resorts?) would I still be able to exchange at these resorts with points. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Ryan

Last Call vacations could include any of those locations at lower-demand times of year at the last minute. Space might be available up to 45 days in advance, or only 14 days or less. You would just want to keep your eyes open.

Also I had heard that you can use points for airfare and was trying to find out about how many points a roundtrip ticket to say florida from oklahoma would be or at least a ballpark guess.

Round trip tickets will vary in point requirements based on a number of factors. You might try contacting an RCI Points Guide to inquire about one or two destinations you're most likely to visit. They may be able to give you an idea.

RCI Weeks-only resorts are available to Points members for exchange (the space is then paid back to the Weeks system by the Points system.) However, resorts that are affiliated with RCI Points must be reserved through the Points program.
