Agreed here! It's why we also have direct points, as well as FWs.If it takes 10 - 15 years for it to be worth it to buy direct, at the end of the 48 year contract it will be still be worth it.
I just emailed the guide I've been speaking with about a FW. We like traveling in Fall, but aren't married to always traveling in Fall.
I'm sorry if this is not the appropriate place to ask (please redirect me if I'm wrong), but if we had a 110 points with a June UY, could we bank the 2020 points to 2021 and have until May 30, 2022 to use the 2020 and 2021 points?
We don't always plan on traveling during Thanksgiving and early Christmas holidays, but we recognized that it's:
(a) a time period we'd like to be able to travel
(b) is excessively popular
(c) Studios are hard to book
(d) we love the idea of avoiding the hassle of having to book studios when we do want to go
(e) love that we can just cancel that week and use the points for another trip, or bank into next year
So for that reason the FWs work for us! At some point, we may also pick up FW 44 somewhere for that Halloween/F&W as well.
As to your final question - yes, you could bank your 110 points into 2021 and have from Jun 1 to May 30 2022 to use both 2020 and 2021 points.
