For People who Pooled Points before that option was eliminated...

Yeah, but you could call in and the VC's would do it for you. They prided themselves in how well they could do it. Wyndham could have easily done away with it, at anytime. All they had to do was tell people it wasn't okay, and not let the VC's do it. I don't see much difference between that and the don't book over 10 nights rule. With the old system, programmatically it wouldn't stop you. But Wyndham came down with a heavy head (threatening letters to take action against you). They could have done something similiar with cancel/rebook.

At the owner's meeting in Las Vegas in October, they reiterated that it is still possible to cancel/rebook. They stood up there and said the system is real time, reservations come back real time, and that you can still cancel/rebook.

Going to the next meeting?

I hope so. Has anyone heard any dates, is it Vegas again? Are you going?

We can't on the one hand admonish sales for lying constantly, and at the same time claim that something sales says is representative of what the folks *managing* the trust had in mind.

Why not? It was my focus point about cancel/rebook. Nothing stopped it and VCs embraced doing it. A few were reluctant so I would call someone else. New agents did not have a clue at times. Most Vcs were always helpful.

I did prefer doing it online as more flexibility when it could be done.

It depends when and where. I think that we are going to Hawaii in September. And then I have lunch with the ladies in San Francisco in the beginning of October. I hope I can put something together. Three cross country flights in a month is a bit more than my tolerance level.
