Was Just reading comments from owners and this one on Disney really bothered me. We are Disney owners and for two years I have been trying to exchange our points for ANYWHERE and Disney keeps telling me nothing is available thru Interval. This is during slow periods for say going to Hawaii and for a great period coming to Disney. We do not deal with Interval ourselves, Disney handles this. Now I am beginning to wonder what is going on.
========== Could you use your points and book a unit with Disney, then call Interval International to make the exchange yourself? Or, if you have an Interval International account, you should be able to go online and view all the exchange opportunities available as well as complete the exchange online.
No we are not a member of Interval yet. The exchanges are done thru Disney. We will be members when our latest buy in St. Kitts is complete. Then I think it may be easier to do a switch with someone for Disney. I have talked to many owners who have found the same thing when they want to switch and pay 75.00 to Disney to work with Interval for an exchange only to come up empty handed. You get a refund if they don't find anything but it is hard booking air if you wait too long. I asked Disney to check with Interval for anything all year long for the next two years in Hawaii and New Zealand--they said nothing!
