I’m still new to DVC and learning the ins and outs of it all, so please bear with me! I think I have this correct but would like another set of eyes.
These are my current points, August use year:
August 2024: 61
August 2025: 225
August 2026: 225
I’m planning a stay for January of 2025 at a resort I do not own at. I will need 291 points for the week (hoping to stay in a 2 bedroom at Animal Kingdom Kidani). I know I cannot book until 7 months out… I just want to be ready.
The trip is happening in my 2024 use year. I will be using my remaining 61 points, plus I’ll borrow all my 2025 points, but I still need 5 more points. I would need to purchase 5 one time use points from Disney, correct? And if I go that route, what use year do I buy those points for? I’m assuming 2024, since one time use points cannot be banked or borrowed.
Do I purchase one time use points now, so I have enough for when I go to book? Or will I be given the option to purchase them while I’m completing the booking 7 months out?
And finally… any idea on the likelihood of securing a dedicated 2-bedroom savanna view at Kidani 7 months out for a mid-January trip?
Thank you!
