Yes, true.Nothing new though as that time of year has always been walked by this point in time,
I’m willing to venture that AKV values have been walked the majority of open dates this yearWell, I see the "walking" has already started for next October. Such a pain in the *ss!!
Surely people complain about this...? Is there any indication they may close this loophole? Just another reason I'd be nervous to buy in... my husband and I would almost always want a studio but I hate playing games.
Depending on whether you'd like to buy direct, and at what resort, you could get a Fixed Week. I recently bought one at Riviera and I'm very happy to have my reservation guaranteed for the first week in Nov, 2021 (Week 44). The combination of it being Jersey Week, Food & Wine fest, the Wine & Dine half-marathon AND the 50th celebration would have me walking a standard view studio right now.
Some years I'll probably opt out and just get the points to use as normal.

Yes, that is something I would like, especially if you can opt out on occasion.Depending on whether you'd like to buy direct, and at what resort, you could get a Fixed Week.

Well that is certainly something to think about... like a lot of people I'm sure I assumed you were tied to your fixed week, but while we mostly travel around the same times every year we do bop around sometimes too to experience limited time offerings. Thanks.

So kinda new to this whole thing- do people seriously books a reservation in March and then adjust it every day until October? If someone wants to make a reservation for December would they have to make one now and alter it till then? I don’t mind booking on the exact day I can but the walking thing seems crazy to me.
I'm curious as well. How many months do people walk a reservation?
