Lets see if i've got this right now ( bound and determined to understand this YU stuff LOL)
trying to tie down if Feb YU is best for us.
assuming we are buying in in December this year ( 2009)
i would like our first trip home to be from December 28th, 2010 until
January 2, 2011. always staying at our home resort, BLT.
we will either buy 175 pts or 200 points, to make sure we have enough points every other year.
if my family had a Feb YU,
my current points are good from then ( purchase day) until 1/31/2010.
I would bank the 09 points, and then 3 months later, ( 2/1/2010) we would get current points. the banked points and the current points would then be in our acct, we would call on January 28th, 2010 to make our resservation ( exactly 11 mths)
*** when is the last date to bank points with a feb YU?
Edited: looking at the
point charts on DVC news, we would use 317 points ( 3 weeknights in premier season, 1 weekend night in premier, and 1 weekeknd night in adventure season) So the minimum buy in, 160 points would be right on target. ( we would stay week long stays in March, 297 pts for a LV room - again right on target for every other year stay with 320 points allowance)
if we traveled in March, we would do the same, except we would be close on the cancellation window if something were to come up. ( expected travel dates of the last week of March )
so, have i got the jist of it?
