OK I posted a few weeks back and was going to follow that up, but the thread seems to have vanished!
I have banked 160 points from this year to use next. We have a March UY but owing to school stuff can only really travel in August.
Questions obviously looming over what happens next, but my thinking is that I should - when the booking window opens - use my banked points to make a short reservation for August 2021. I won't touch the 2021 points as they can be banked into 2022 but only if not used then cancelled.
That means I can then make a judgement call, say around April/May 2021 as to whether there's any point in persevering and hunting out flights, or if I look to cancel the reservation and either sell the points via a broker (if there's any demand at all) or swap into RCI.
Does that seem to make sense? Am I missing anything?
Thanks in advance
